Had 0.6mm machined off the diameter of the bolts today ready for the camber adjustment. I wasnt sure if the metal would cut but took off a small amount at a time

I've now fitted the bolts. After I decide how to keep the front lowering springs in the strut/or go for an S13 setup, I will get the 4wheel alignment done

Shame you're not local to me as I could do the alignment for free. Be interesting to see how it works out.

If you have the subframe off most just fall out through age. if not then you can just burn them out with heating!. There is a metal collar on the subframe which will also need to be chiselled out CAREFULLY!

I don't who but he said me those bushings must be recut, the thickness is too large and tends our rear subframe to be lowered.

Are they made by Prothane? Do you still have the ref number?
I appreciate if you'll share some info even minor.

I got them from Mjp and they are indeed from prothane

the kit number from the rear z31 subframe bushings is #14-101

They seem to be a little larger than the original bushings

greetings.
Chris

sorry to dig up an old thread, but northerner I've bought the same bushes from MJP, they arrived today.

Holding them up to the hole on the subframe it looks as though they wont't fit with the sleeve still in. Can you confirm that the sleeve has to be removed?

EDIT: looking at the pics it looks as though there are no sleeves in yours, but further confirmation would be nice :P
