Easy to change too, after doing a couple i have learnt you can do them on the car if you need too :)

any few pointers on how to get it off cos i thought the whole arm thingy has to be unbolted with the whole disc rotor out n that..

hmm urethane bushes thanks good advice i was gonna go oem but yeh urethane whiteline it is.

Yeah thats how i did the first side on mine, but if you swing the arm out (protect your guard with somthing) you can tap the old bushes out with a hammer, you just need to hit them at the right angle and they will dislodge and come flying out (I mean that literally too lol).... As for putting them back in i used a huge pair of multi grips but you can use a nut and both with washers or other methods if you are skilled on the tools.

Okay I know this is an old thread but I still haven't got around to changing these Bushings still. Cos had the car re-sprayed and I didn't drive it since then cos I was overseas...it's been about a year since I Haven't changed it and I was gonna go on track next Monday for the first time... will it be alright if I did, I mean taking corners a bit hard or not.

I drove around some winding roads last week and thrashed through the corners and the car seem normal after. And now do u guys think that it will be fine if I went in track?

Cheers ! Thoughts?

      The R32 suffers from an instrument binnacle that is uncomfortably close to the design of a VN Commodore's. But beyond that, the layout of the rest of everything, and the materials (ie the vinyl coverings on dash, armrest, etc) are acceptable, and the patterns on the fabrics are not as blergh as those in the R33. And R33 seats are....quite unattractive. I know it's only small details there, but I reckon the R33 got worse than the 32. But the big blergh is the overall shape of the dash on the R33. It's just has that whole Maxima/Pulsar sort of look to it. Nothing special at all. Generic Nissan sedan. Whereas, at least the R32 dash/binnacle was different. Less a wide expanse of boringly curved plastic. More a "cockpit" sort of look, even if nowhere near to the degree that the A90 Supras got. R34 seats look good on their own, until you realise that they are indistinguishable from the shape and fabric on 70 other Japanese cars. And the foam bolsters on them suffer even worse than the earlier cars. Other than that I don't really have an opinion the rest of the R34 interior. I took the bits of the R34 I wanted (brakes and engine) and added them to the best external appearance Skyline in the modern era (the 32). So nyerr!

      Can I be your first customer? I would like hard lines done for the fuel system, 8AN up and 8AN back and the underside wire wheeled and coated (brush or sprayed) with that black tar shit.

      Speak for yourself, I love the R33 interior. 32 is blergh. I like the 34 interior too. Then you start getting much newer in most cars and they all turn back to blergh. 馃槢

      500-600hp into a RB is already 'sinking endless amounts of money' into an engine. Especially a 30 year old engine. Unfortunately this is the RB Game. Considering stock power (or at least stock components) will do ~360whp on 98 by simply turning up the boost on the stock gear on a RB26, that would be where I'd say the cutoff point for "sinking endless amounts of money into the engine" Cause to even do this reliably you'd probably need to replace all the bits anyway cause they're old, starting your sinking journey anyway. I reckon the least painful way is rebuilding the engine to make 50hp over stock lol. The 'plan your ownership around a rebuild' was a common saying 15 years ago.
