R32 Gtr

[Zardos]

Has anyone changed their K-Frame floor mount bushes in the R32 GTR?

And if so did you acquire the original k-frame floor mount bushes or some after market items.

I'm not that keen on using pineapples as i have been told that they only last about two years before you need to look at changing them again. ( i could be wrong through)

I have rang Nissan and was told that if i want those bushes i need to buy the whole K-frame as the floor mount bushes are not an item Nissan sells separately.

Now they want over $1000 for the K-frame and i'm not paying that much money.

If anyone can point me into the right direction as to where to buy the replacement items from or some other non oem parts but just as good..

You mean rear cross member? Hit up pedders, like $290 for a kit.

Is the rear cross member the same as the rear K-Frame.

The is x4 bushes on each corner of the K-Frame

Personally I'd call it a rear subframe. Anyway subframe bushes are a much better option than just pineapples. They are a bastard to replace though, subframe out which is why most people just take a shortcut and try and lock it using pineapples

So where do you get the subframe bushes from seeing nissan want's to only sell you the whole subframe only

Go Nismo. They're more solid than stock but much quieter than most aftermarket stuff.

I got mine from Noltec but I think they are goooone, bought out by whiteline.

Anyway just ask for "subframe bushes" from a local suspension workshop - there are probably a couple of local brands making them.

Be careful 32 gtr and gtst are different so make sure you get the right ones

Thanks mate i'll have a look at the whiteline and see if they still have them.

The nizmo one's work out about $102 each and you need 4. Ouch so looks like i'll keep looking

I ended up buying the Nismo ones from nengun.

Thanks for your help guys
