Can anyone tell me if you have to remove the whole rear member in order to change the 2 bushes that the diff attaches to (which is part of the rear member)??  My bushes are totally shot and I'm thinking is an easy task to remove just the diff or a headache to remove the whole rear member.  Any advice/help would be much appreciated.

Believe me, when you change the diff bushes you will notice a complete lack of axle hop. Call Unique Auto Sport, they get them made up or imported. Think I saw one of the traders advertising them also. I only changed the front ones but car is quieter and no more clicking when I take off.

Uniqueautosports do em mine arrived today advertised as noltek (spelling?) but when they arrived they were some brand I had never heard of look okay though !!!!

Come as a kit with the two on the rear subframe and two either side of the front (nose) of the diff

Yeah I got these from UAS this week as well about $90. Both front and rear bushes, with new crush tubes for the front. Front looks easy to change but rears look like a disaster to do with the subframe in the car - I might give them a miss

They are from the states, made for 300zx but the diff and subframe are the same.

Noltec have a part number listed but they didn't have any.

When i did my pinion bushes (Front of diff) i got the noltec ones from WA suspension. Believe it or not they had them in stock. If your still chasing some give them a call they may still have some.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
