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...

    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
    • As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.
    • but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
