    s12/280zx

    seeing as the rear subframe bushes fit the s12 from the 280zx, does anyone know if the trailing arm bushes that fit onto the subframe are the same, as i rang superflex today, who get their bushes from whiteline and they said they could get me all 4 for around £40, only his list does not list the s12 but i know that japster got his poly bushes from whiteline.

    i saw the rally design's catalogue yesterday and the 280zx is listed, so i rang superflex and he said they can get them for the 280zx, but they are out of stock, so he has put an order in to whiteline in australia, then he's gonna measure them up for me, i'am wondering if the 240, 260, 280zx and z31 are the same.

    ok cool, i have a full silvia rear sitting in bit's on the garage floor so i might eb able to measure them if u need, found out the mounts are different location on my datsun so looking at other way to convert to lsd but looks like i need to use the datsun frame and arms so new bushes are required.
    Maybe need to give them a ring

    rear trailing arm bush kit spf0836k solid rear axle, rear trailing arm bush kit spf1942k (must reuse original shell), i know the silvia is the IRS, so does this mean its the second one, which has to use the original shells.

    i think thats why den kept getting the wrong parts. it means you should get your parts from superflex and order bushes for a 280zx or z31...
