TSM l Whiteline Differential Bushings

TopSpeed Motorsports offers a full line of bushings for your 370Z, the most prone to failure being the differential bushings.

The OEM differential bushings are fluid filled, which is very effective in isolating unwanted drivetrain vibrations, and noise. However this design is not capable of withstanding aggressive driving/launching on a regular basis. A failed rear differential bushing is easily identifiable by a black streak running down the differential cover and/or subframe.

As shown HERE:

The failure of these bushings not only causes a misalignment of the driveline, but drastically increases the magnitude of damaging wheel hop. The Whiteline Differential Bushing set not only repairs this issue but dramatically improves the launch, and reduces potentially damaging wheel hop over the OEM Fluid filled design.

How much of a NVH increase should I expect with these?

While retaining OEM Subframe bushings, no additional NVH is noticed. The only difference is felt during aggressive driving/launching, in which the car feels much more planted.

Very nice. Is it necessary to drop the diff to install?

Removal of the differential is required to replace the bushings, however its removal is relatively straight forward. This entire installation should take 3.5-4.5 hours for an experienced technician.

So plan on an all-day job if we DIY?

That's totally dependent on skill/tool set, but it can be done. My first diff bushing install was on jackstands and took most of a day.

Great. That's not too bad at all. Can you give me a quote for the bushings plus the finned diff cover shipped to 77008? If I'm going to drop the diff, might as well swap that out while it's on the workbench.

Is this the kit tailored for our cars, or is it for the G/Z33? I know we've been waiting a long time for a kit tailed for the 370Z. This is definitely on the to-do list for this year... hopefully it stops the drive train shaking while going in reverse.

What OEM subframe bushings are you referring to ? This KDT911 set comes with the rear bushing and 2 front bushings. Are we supposed to use all of them or just the rear one in this case in order to avoid additional NHV ? Thanks

Rob, how was the OEM rear bushing removed so cleanly without cutting it? The last picture of your first post shows the OEM bushing removed so nicely!
