I need a few parts - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Chillaxed 240sx · 04-02-2005, 03:46 PM

Can someone point me in the direction of the following parts if you know off the top of your head:
- Suspension bushing set for a 1990 240sx
- Adjustable Tension Rods for caster for the same car
- And this is the MOST IMPORTANT - Rear camber kit for a 1990 240sx

Much thanks to any that help and for those that flame:

EBAY and Courtesy parts...

MakotoS13 · 04-02-2005, 05:34 PM

ya know, it wouldn't be so bad if you asked for parts that were REMOTELY difficult to find.

in before the lizzock.

projectRDM · 04-02-2005, 05:38 PM

Try the internet, that's a good place to start.

Chillaxed 240sx · 04-02-2005, 08:09 PM

Well, I figured SOMEONE here would have already purchased at least one of these parts and would have the website they purchased it from still saved in their favorites list. I figured wrong.

Like posted, www.courtesyparts.com.

It's embarrasing to know you're local to GA.

i figure that you're a dumbass

Chillaxed 240sx · 04-03-2005, 09:47 PM

Nah, the tension rods were a gee-duh thing. After I remembered about it after posting that before I read any replies I checked and found a few things ... problem is, I only need the control arm bushings for the S13. They have the control arm bushings for an S14, but not the 13 ... I am going to look into taking my front end suspension apart and looking at my tension rod. Chances are that it's damaged to hell and back and I just need to find a replacement one.

Chillaxed 240sx · 04-03-2005, 10:09 PM

Okay, I have adjusted what I need. I need OEM tension rods. All I am finding are these aftermarket Tein, JIC - everything I don't need right now. I found an Eibach rear camber kit, but the shit is like $115.00 or something ... anyone know of a place that sells it cheaper? I googled the fuck out of this shit and eBay didn't help me with a damn thing ...

projectRDM · 04-03-2005, 10:17 PM

LCA bushings are the exact same.

Eibach doesn't sell a rear camber kit, because it's not adjusted they way they say.
Pick up a pair of rear arms of Ebay for $119, there's no other way to adjust camber if the OE eccentric bolt is maxed out.

And again, all this could have been found with a few keystrokes. Get off your ass.

Chillaxed 240sx · 04-03-2005, 10:37 PM

Well, apparently I did not know what to look for. I didn't know that I would need the upper camber arms. I assumed there was a camber kit out there that was similar to the bolts you just slide in on the front struts. Excuse me for not knowing, asshole.

No one can tell me where to buy OEM tension rods, though. Looks like another trip out to the junkyard this weekend.

raging panda · 04-04-2005, 12:05 AM

check www.pdm-racing.com, they have bushings, t/c rods, most of the stuff you were asking for. energy suspension makes a whole suspension kit for the s13 bushings, like 140 or so on ebay. its a lot more on pdm but you can buy individual bushings on pdm

s13gonwild · 04-04-2005, 02:23 AM

dont bother with camber...240sx dont have a huge camber issue..just get an alligment. and bushings check out ebay alot of cheap bushings there. The tension rods almost any shop will have those. just to name a few, www.jspec.com phase2 ...you can also search ebay

good luck

North240 · 04-04-2005, 07:22 AM

Toe is going to eat your tires not camber, you might want to search this site and others to find out how the rear suspension works. No camber kits, your not driving a honda anymore......

BSeay · 04-04-2005, 07:34 AM

what about http://www.splparts.com ?

i dont know about S13 but i know they have a shit load of things for the s14 suspension wise...

01SaturnL200 · 04-04-2005, 07:44 AM

my friend has a set of OEM tension rods brand new i think he wants like 100 shipped for both or something like that.....

Yoshi · 04-04-2005, 10:38 AM
