Hey guys

I'm having trouble finding replacement bushes for the V36 coupe 2011 steering rack.

I just need one and i'm not keen to buy the whole steering rack just for one bushing

i've seen V35/350Z bushes come up on a google search but nothing for the V36/G37

I don't think it has a part number and nissan won't sell it.

If you can figure out the size of the bush and tube insert, try going to the Superpro website they have a section called Find my bush size, small possibility they have a bush thats close. I got lucky with a BMW bush I couldn't match. Had too reduce the length though.

Yeah I just found that site :)

got to get the ruler out and do some measuring 

thanks 

Well it's not easy to measure ?

I asked my Mechanic and he said he would charge hours of labour just do this. 

Does anyone have there V36 or 370Z in pieces to measure the bush I need? 

I'll do some more googling tonight too.

Not good 

Had the rack removed to get measurements. 

It's all sealed up and you would damage the rack if you tried to remove them. Then you wouldn't be able to fit new ones. 

My mechanic has just greased up and tighten them down. Now I don't have any movement problems so I'm happy.

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
