Hey all,

I'm in need of some advise/help with the predicament i'm in, I've just recently brought a complete rear end bush kit from powerflex which is stated to fit my car (R32 GTR) they are labelled on the box as 200SX but there website says they are the same.

The bushes I recieved are:

Rear trailing arm bushes 45mm long

Rear link bushes

Rear toe link inner bushes

I have taken my car and bushes to pedders and fulcrum suspension and they have both said they don't look like they will fit.

Has anyone else had this same issue?

Do 200SX bushes fit in R32 GTR's?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Well....actually 200sx would come very close to fitting. All of the subframe end bushes (ie subframe bushes and upper and lower control arm inner end) should be the same.

I thought upper control arm outer end (hub) were the same too.

In any case, if they say they don't fit....I guess they know what they are talking about ;)

200sx bushes for the rear subframe and control arm are different to GTR.

Subframe bushes are actually longer

Control arm inner bushes are wider and won't fit into the subframe.

Outer are the same as GTR/ most Nissan chassis.

Be cautious with the subframe bushes. Some brands require you to press the entire Nissan bush and outer shell from the subframe. Others (nolothane in particular) require you to cut the rubber section of the bush out and clean up the putter shell NOT removing it at all from the subframe.

This is a bitch of a job that is very time consuming to do properly.

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
