  • Removed my front right disc, hub, knuckle and coilover in preparation of getting my bent strut sorted.
    Might replace the bushes in my control arms and top of struts and do the bearings whilst I'm at it.

    Where do you guys get your bushes?
    I'd like to upgrade from rubber to nolethene.

    Cheers!

          • The bushes are SuperPro made by Fulcrum http://www.superpro.com.au/find-supe...ton=Search+Now

            I've had these for many years and they do the job.

                • Decided to chuck some of Cam's 10mm spacers on the rear for a looksee. Turn's out camber does ruin tyres...


                  Time for some adjustable gruvenparts bars!

                  Here's what it looks like with the rear spacers anyway...

                  • how have you managed to get wear like that - shouldn't it be consistently worn all the way around, not just in those patches? Looks like someone's been ripping skids to me ...

                        It's not too bad. If you need any help let me know. Or any of the guys at carcareproducts.com.au will help and give advice.

                        The rotary polisher from festool is the only dangerous one there, if used incorrectly.

                          Also painted my rear brakes, will post up pictures soon

                          Edit: Might get them back by buying a Ralliart sticker for the honda driver at work and a TRD sticker for Nissan driver any other ideas?
