Why isn't your ECU compatible with ECUTEK? You have a newer model sport bumper so I figured you had a newer, compatible model?

Yeah I have a 2011 sport. It is compatable, jsut EcuTek had to do some edits. Apparently this is pretty common. I received the flash from John at Visconti, just waiting for my appointment for the first flash. I don't want to mess anything up and be without a car.

Oh man off to the dealer tomorrow. On the way home from my last final, I pulled on to the highway. Now when I shift there is a terrible clunk coming somewhere from the rear. Its so bad you can feel the clunk through the drivers seat :0.


On another note... the tune is still effing awesome. 8,000 rpms is so sweet!

That would be my guess, particularly since it's a known point of failure on this car.

It's a possibility, although I replaced the factory one with a solid polyurethane one. So hope that isn't the case. I'll hop under and check in a few.

Oh me of little faith. I was afraid of this...



I cannot express how greatful I am this happened after my last final. The bushing has a life time warranty, so there is that. Only thing is I have a dyno day Saturday morning. Ughhhhhh lol

Wow! That must have been a shock. How the heck does something like that happen? Are you jumping railroad cars with your G?

Lifetime warranty on a $100 part for what probably amounts to half a day's labor charges... well, that's something, I suppose.

His last reference was Summer 2015, and Whiteline.

Hmmm.

OP, I have a bag of Whiteline Diff Bushings right here in my hand, and I'm not matching that stamped part number. The two small, two-piece vertical mount bushings are 67414 and 67415. And the large differential bushing is 67419, which should be what I'm seeing in your picture. However, the large diff bushing that I have here is a different design entirely, with ten holes in a concentric pattern all the way through the rubber. Are you sure those are Whiteline?

Do you have a record of what you bought? The kit I have here is marked "KDT911 Rear Diff Mount 350Z", purchased from Z1 Motorsports in September. Although labeled "350Z", they're selling them applicable to the 370 and the G.

Sorry for the confusion, no I ended up going with company called Super Pro Bushings. I'll be doing the bushing install again myself again .

I'm wondering how long its been out or going out. for a while when starting from a stop the car should shutter.

I'll be honest when the bushing gave way, I was getting a little sideways :P. But I didn't dump the clutch. The roads are very slick so I just gave the car more throttle and spun tires. So who knows.

Dumping the clutch or not, a good Polly bushing should not give way

OK, that good news. I mean, sucks for you, but... well.

Thanks for clearing that up.
