Prothane only makes the sway bar bushings

Like Nismo, Noltec also makes a select number of bushings, though with a more advanved material then Nismo's choice of "hard rubber".

We do now have a polyurathane choice from Whiteline Plus, looks like more total bushings as well. http://www.whiteline.com.au/Plus/pdf..._CATALOGUE.pdf
Might want to Pm Adam aka Z1performance I believe they are going to start carrying them.

the whitelines aren't out yet - have not heard any eta

prothane only makes swaybar bushings

I have the NISMO on my car throughout, they have worked out very well. Durometer rating of 90, no greasing required, zero noise, just alot better response than the factory rubber units. They are listed as compatible to cars built before January 2007

I've finally found some! I believe Oakos Automotive carry bunch of Whiteline bushings for 350z.

http://www.oakos.com/

Go to that website and type in "whiteline bushing 350z"

I'm getting mixed feedbacks between hard rubber (Nismo) and Polyutherine (Whiteline).

Fire away ppl
