Message	My local shop just finished installing all the Nismo bushings and they also installed the aluminum sub-frame bushings. Most bushings were worn out and the mechanic that did it said he will never do this job again. It took him 16 hours of hard work. Some of the old bushings did not want to come out even with the press (especially the sub frame bushings) He told me the ride should be very stiff now and he said the car might squeak even though he greased them up pretty good. I will try and install the rear end before I go to E-Town on the 7th and 8th. If you guys want to install the bushings on your car, make sure you go to a shop that hasn't done the job before so they can't know what they are up against :)
