M35 Torsion Rods

[Blitz_boy]

Hi guys,

I've just got my 2003 Stagea ARX. I'm lovin' it but it has the common thud that comes form worn castor bushes?

I've read through the G35driver forum and have found that Nissan revised the Torion Rod and it has a new part number.

Can some confim if the M35 uses the same torsion rod as a V35 Skyline?

The part number's for the V35 are:

Right side: 54468-AC70F

Left side: 54469-AC70F

just replace the bushes. get some nolathane or some other brand that does them.

they probably can come with an offset centre to add more castor

I was also thinking of just changing the bushes but no one was has a part number for the Stagea.

I guess they can pull out the bush and measure it up.

Would the bush be the same as the V35??

its nissan . they are lazy as f**k ,

all the skyline and silvia ranges only have two different sized castor bushes and they are so close you can get away with using either

[zei20l]

it probably is the same as a V35/Z33. but im not 100% on that. we have AWD and the front suspension setup is slightly different.

If and when you find a part number for this. please advise.. i would like to change alot of my parts on my car before it sells.

I'm going to take it into Centreline suspension to measure up, i'll let you know how i go.

I've got a 2002 manual ST215. It's the older shape, I wanted a manual and you can't get it in the new shape.

It's a great car, fast and nimble wagon. Great on juice to, which I can't say about the ARX

hahah j/k. but seriously that is our biggest downfall! just sucks to admit it, the fuel just evaporates

depends what ECU you have

Are you finding your car to be a lot more economical with the Nismo ecu Craig?

yup......was about on par with the Haltech which was about 10-15% better than the standard ECU.......never got to do a tank on ECO before I took it off the road.

that said, a caldina almost came up again but we got the fiat instead. even better on fuel and even more chuckable

hmmm sorry, caldina vs fiat would definately result in a caldina outcome

chuckable? like chuck it in the bin?

I dunno man, if I already have a Stag why would I want the Caldina? Especially if it is for the Missus.
