hey guys,

Am in the midst of a whole car suspension/brake upgrade at the moment and haven't had any luck finding urethane aftermarket front sway bar bushes. i've pulled one out and its 21mm ID with a ridge down the curved section of the bush. Does anyone know if they use the same bush as an s13/s14/s15/r33/r34/a31? or where to get them

cheers

Whiteline should be able to do the job. I'll assume you mean mounting bushes which resemble a D?

Have you already upgraded your sway bars? If not i would be doing that at the same time.

yea man talking about the ones which mount up to the castor rod bracket that are shaped like a D. yea i was looking into the whiteline sway bars but have heard from a few people that the build quality is pretty average.

what size swaybars do you run?

"Build quality pretty average"

What drugs are these people on? How the hell can the build quality be "average"?

The fact is the Whiteline bars are a perfectly good product available in useful sizes and with some extra features that you can choose to buy or not buy as the fancy takes you (these would be the heavy duty end links on the heavier adjustable bars). Sure, they are heavier than some other brands because they are solid......but then you don't pay $600 each for them either.

Exactly as above, they are solid and sure they are heavier but they do work very well and for the price you cant go past them.
I currently have the same as the sydneykid group buy 24mm adjustable front and 22mm adjustable rear, however that is different from car to car, i suggest you look that up for a rough guide on what works for your car.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
