hey i am chasing some suspension parts for my 32 gtr and im having trouble...

i need the top and bottom balljoints and also the inner bush thats on the lower wishbone arm..\

i know termonology may not be 100% but hopefully you get what i mean...

i live in brisbane Qld and have been to several parts places, both import and local.. and no1 seems to be able to get them.. the one place that got some in got the ones for a standard 32 not gtr as they are different..

Can anyone help??

Front...

Whitleline do not supply Ball joints already called them... and your nissan dealer idea is a no go either (tried that first)

And just so you can cross them off your list... I tried for you:

- Fulcrum

- Paja

- OEM Products

- ATAP

- National Parts

- Protex

- ABS

Most have part numbers for it, but none anywhere in stock...

^^^ thanx heaps jetpilot... i had tried a couple of those aswell, ive had a few places say they have part numbers but no stock in the country.. its crazy...

Update: ive finally got the ball joints... they are on order...

but still no luck with the inner bush..

Who'd you get the ball joints through?

Corey,

Hi Corey, there is no bush at the inner lower control joint on the front of an R32GTR. It's a ball joint.

If it is the inner lower control joint on the rear, then the Noltec part number is N62012,. the SuperPro part number is SPF1639. I can get either of them for you, just PM me.

Cheers

Gary

Hey Gary,

Ok so let me get this straight the 32 gtr has 4 ball joints on the front?

i will jack it up on wednesday and check for sure.. cos so far i have gone off what everyone else ive been to see says, its becoming very clear that theres a million different opinions on these cars...

Thanks for the help.. i will check it out and post...

Corey,

Yep, [without actually seeing one] all the listing we found when looking for ya had an outer ball joint, seperate, and an inner ball joint (similar to some BMW's) that was pressed into an arm...

  • 3 weeks later...
  • 1 month later...

    • Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.         
    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
