sorry, not yet, we have been working with Noltec to hopefully come to an agreement with us. It is going to take a while since they raised their prices by a significant amount so we have to work pretty hard to try our best to bring it down. We have some confidence in this negotiation but it just needs some time. We are sorry but the US currency has been bad so we are really at a difficult position here. So we have been and will always be trying our best to bring the price down so all of us will not lose this great product for our rotary. :)

I sent you a e-mail but sense I'm here do you have a full set left? I dont want to just send yoiu money and find out your sold out.
|
i was wondering how long does it take to install the full bushing kit? thanks
|
An experienced shop can do it in 1-2 hours depending on what tools they have available. If you do it yourself and you know what you are doing, then I would say 3-4 hours. Since you will need a press to push some of the new bushings into their housings so it might take you some extra time to get the bushings to a local machine shop that can provide you access to a press. Of course, there is always other ways to install the new bushings without a press but we recommend using a press since it is fast and easy, just need to get access to one. :)

Are the rear upper arms supposed to be adjustable? My mechanic says it doesn't make sense for our cars. Is that right?

The adjustable version is only available from SuperPro and it is supposed to cost extra than the regular ones. We just threw them in at no extra cost and they help you adjust camber without the need of camber adjusting bolts. The crush tube has an offset hole, so once the bolt goes through you can rotate it inwards and outwards by simply loosening it and pulling/pushing the tire. Its the same principle as the camber adjusting bolts that you would just turn, except the offset belongs to the crush tube instead of the bolt. It's much stronger than the camber adjusting bolts because those must be undersized to accommodate the offset, and they tend to snap in hard cornering because of that.

Yah, he said the same thing about having to push/pull on it to adjust camber which would cost a fortune at an alignment shop according to him. Is there some other way to explain it to him? He's a little old school with the racing stuff and keeps setups as simple as possible. I've never heard of a failure on the camber adjustment bolt and mine hasn't broken in 20+ track days of solid duty either.
I can't wait until my car is ready next week and then to try these bushings at the track with some Hoosiers:willy_nilly: thewird |
Well, just suggest your mechanic to work with what hes got or he has to machine a new crush tube:lol:
Honestly, it is true that the camber adjustment bolts are weaker than the crush tube but the chance of the camber adjustment bolts to break is different for everyone. The bolts do break just not very common. So it is just preference when comes to choosing between the camber bolts or the eccentric crush tube. Since now you got the crush tube, might as well to ask the mechanic to work with it. |
Yah, he said he would make a new metal piece but to ask if this was sent in error first. I'll talk to him next time I go check up on my engine :). Thanks.

Hey Kevin, I was checking out your website...There doesn't seem to be an option to buy a full superpro bushing kit?
|
yeah, coz we are out and i believe most retailers with SuperPro kits are out as well. We have been contacting our supplier quite often lately but they said the SuperPro kits are on back order and so far no solid updates. All we got left right now is some individual bushings.
Hopefully we will have some good news soon so we can restock some of these bushings. :) |
Yes I'm waiting on a set also. When ever you get them in.
I have to do this this winter. Luke |
