Doing a Solid Subframe bushing is no simple task. It takes time and patience to do. If you take the car to a shop, be prepared to pay heavily! The entire rear end of the car has to come out. So brakes will have to be bleed, suspension unhooked and so on.

I have Solid Subframe bushings in my Z32 ( I know it is a different model), but the outcome will be the same. You will be able to put the power down faster, no wheel hop on launches and so forth. The only drawback is you will hear the drivetrain noise A LOT more. [Not near as bad] but go watch an incar video camera of a race car. You will hear every pop, click and whine in the rear end. I am a race car junky and enjoy the noises....my wife not so much.
