e30 Urethane Bushes Group Buy

[bravo 35]

As per Apex's showroom thread, there are a few of us keen to do a group buy for urethane/nolathane e30 subframe and trailing arm bushes.

Please post below if you are interested, and can someone please take the lead and source/arrange this. I don't have time - I'm just starting the thread to keep the discussion out of Apex's showroom one.

I have powerflex control arm and front and rear sway bar bushes and am happy with the quality. They aren't all that cheap though.

Someone could maybe PM Paul at Interpart (#14) I am sure if someone gave him enough of a timeframe he could supply an order of enough bushes if there was enough interest. I brought Noltec Urethane Subframe bushes off him and they weren't that dear at all.

I'm rocking the powerflex ones, they're great. no squeaks whatsoever.

[Jamez 2147483647]

I need...

• Offset control arm bushes
• subframe bushes
• trailing arm bushes

I'm also keen to replace all bushes rear of g/box.

Tech told me today I could use new subframe ones so I'd be keen

+1 Speak to Paul - i have these same bushes! They work awesomely, and that includes on the track too!

Kean for a complete overhaul, so if this ends up happening count me in

[Sick Puppy 1]

erm, posting here as I haven't seen anything else come up (yet)... I'll be looking at some kind of group buy for e34 bushes in the near(ish) future; if it has a bush, I'll be replacing it.

Or at least trying to! lol

My preference is powerflex, although I'm flexible at this point (waka waka waka )

I'm going to send some emails round asking for 10 sets of e30 subframe and trailing arm bushes. Check back in a few days for prices.

[CamB 48]

Ask about the diff bush too - JiB desperately needs one of them.

[c.robertson00 11]

Id be keen on a diff bush also if the price was right

[e30ftw 410]

I am keen for some too.

Maybe I will just better you all and get Delrin bushes. hehehe.

[Jamez 2147483647]

I have a feeling this is going to be a hell of a big order.

moar discounts

[_ethrty-Andy_ 2132]

im in for a set of fronts (?) and rear trailing arm bushes. subframes are okay at the moment unless its a price i cant refuse.

[Top Secret 2]

Count me in too.

Will this be cheaper than BNT trade price?

[Gus 5]

PF are good and good people to deal with, I recommend.

Can help with UK postage if needed, but they were pretty good about it if I remember right

[bravo 35]

Would be interesting to see what the price diff is between ordering direct from PF plus freight and customs/duty compared with ordering them off the NZ PF distributor.

Was massively cheaper when I brought the first GB in (~2003 iirc).

I was approached by the distributor at the time (c/o PF), but the issue was, he had no E30 stock as they didn't know what we would need (and weren't going to front up with the $$ for stock), so was essentially going to do the same as I did, + Margins.

Also due to the quantity (~10-12 sets of CABS, TA & SF bushes) we got a good discount directly from PF.

Would be interesting to see if times have changed ($$)

These prices are now 18months old, but it's what I was quoted by Dynamic Raceparts (nz distributor) when I bought the fronts:

PFF5-301 ( 2 per car ) $48.00 + GST each x 2 = $96.00 + GST = $108.00 Front Control Arm

PFF5-302-19 ( 2 per car ) $39.00 + GST each x 2 = $78.00 + GST = $87.75 Front sway bar (19mm)

PFR5-305 (2 per car ) $81.00 + GST each x 2 = $162.00 + GST = $182.25 Rear subframe

PFR5-306 ( 4 per car- 2 x inner 2 x outer) $57.00 + GST each x 4 = $228.00 + GST = $256.50 Trailing arm

PFR5-308-12 ( 2 per car ) $39.00 + GST each x 2 = $78.00 + GST = $87.50 Rear sway bar (12mm)

PFR5-300 ( 1 per car ) $60.00 + GST = $67.50 Diff
