hi, just wondering if anyone has replaced the rear subframe bushes on a gtst? with either nismo or aftermarket bushes...

I have a R32 gts4 with leaking subframe bushes and it appears to have a gtst rear subframe fitted. So I need to be able to source some gtst?? subframe bushes or atleast the dimensions to confirm against the subframe i have. The local Nissan dealer has been good and gotten me dimensions for Nismo gts4 bushes but now the dickheads in nissan melbourne are not being forthcoming with the Nismo gtst bush dimensions.

I need to be sure of the dimensions if i decide to get nismo bushes because I have to pay for these parts up front and no refunds.

( GTR nismo subframe bushes are around $600 for a set of 4)

So it would be really good to find out:

- if anyone has actually changed their R32 GTST rear subframe bushes with after market bushes ..

or

if anyone knows the part number on gtst subframes and where to look for it

so i can confirm the typeb o fsubframe.

Any help much appreciated

Stephen

Hi an update regarding this post.

The car had the right subframe after all, but the bush 'eyes' are not always perfectly round so the guys who measured it up - got the wrong measure.

I have removed the bushes from this subframe and the sizes are as they are supposed to be.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
