sudden shock loadings can damage so much just think of the force involved, that caliper lock up was instant and you still had the cars momentum with all the wheels still trying to turn (4wd) huge amount of torque!
2 x N13 lower rear bushes
+
2 x N14 wishbones
= ~£60 all in
Cut or melt the rear bush off the wishbones (just rubber inside an alloy tube holding them on), then slide the N13 ones on.
What's on mine, all good. (thanks to Pulsar_Stu fitting them on).
Or you could uprate the bushes to polys (whiteline etc.).

Bingo!
I hope that's just a generic picture in the link for the N13 bushes, because it's not right; the GTi-R specific one has a sort of triangular top to it so that it sits in the recess in the floor pan. Just be careful taking the old ones off; it's easy to cut to far and into the wishbone below.
it has a triangular base, you can just see it starting in this pic. its whats on mine and they were triangular
thinking about it, you might be able to grip it in a vice and twist the hole arm to get it off. i went a bit oriental on mine lol

Whoah. This was a good thread. I've got the same problem, and I recall hitting a curb that was hidden by snow...
