Rear sub frame bushings

[djdoc360]

Are the four main rear subframe bushings the same on a GTI-R the same as the ones on a S13,14,15 and Skyline? Looking into orderins the S13 ones but i don't want to find out the hard way that they dont fit.

I don't think that the Skyline or the Silvia have the same subframe as a Pulsar - the Skyline certainly doesn't because it has HICAS (which I quite liked because it only let you get a slide going if you really meant it, and caught you before you got into trouble when you didn't).

The Pulsar kit it pretty available, and I think there's a choice between whiteline and SuperFlex/SuperPro isn't there? If you're in Japan you should be able to get them from Australia relatively easily.

Correct me if I'm wrong though, because it wouldn't surprise me to find that the bushes are the same even though the subframe is different.

im in the process of having gtir bush kits made up aswell, but as usual it takes a bit of time

i know the sub frame are different but the Bushing look the same. I put a Silvia and a pulsar sub frame side by side, and by looking the 4 main bushings looks the same size. Some one gave me two solid rubber bushings form a pulsar( rubber looks similar to the nismo engine mounts) rear sub frame and im trying to track down two more. I am buying another rear sub frame to through all new bushings in.

Sounds like you've found another hot tip for getting parts for the Pulsar from alternative sources - kudos to you!
I suppose that unless you're trying to do lock-and-align any bush that is the right size will do, and it makes sense that one for a Nissan would fit.

it is the same for a s13/s14/gtir,z32 , you can get them cheaper from spl parts.com for 59 u.s, here is my comparison http://www.sr20forum.com/pulsar-gti-r/241180-spl-subframe-bushing-vs-whiteline.html#post2356820

these are only lock bushes, not the actual bushes fitted to the gtir subframe.

The part number on these bushing are 55440 RR230. I only have two of these and i think i need two more. I believe there NISMO..

 

[keastygtir]

[dencon]

My RB Nismo has solid rubber bushes,these look exactly the same.

 

[djdoc360]
