I haven’t seen any write ups on this particular model, although they use the same bushings as the 370Z and G37s. In addition, I was able to use the Z1. Motorsport differential cover with a slight modification. I also used the z1 Motorsport polyurethane differential bushings too. The steps are basically the same as the G37 and 370Z cars. I just posted this in case some was wondering if it can be done. The exhaust, sway bar, driveshaft, and a triangular shaped brace that sits under the exhaust need to be removed in order to remove the differential. This part is straight forward and has already been covered in other posts.. So, I didn’t include it. Make sure you use some kind of cord to support the drive shaft and drive axles, while you work on the car.

below are the two covers side by side



This one is with the new cover installed.




A before picture of the OEM cover on the car. As you can see, the liquid already leaked from the bushing based on the stains on the cover.





This is the after picture with the Z1 Motorsport cover installed.




if you look very close, you will see that I had to trim about half of an inch of the cooling fins to allow the cover to clear the bottom of the subframe.I realized it needed to be done, once the differential was installed on the car. So, my trim job was not straight. However, it will be easier if this step is done BEFORE you reinstall the differential back on the car. That was the only modification that needed to be made. Everything else bolted up fine, including the two sensors that bolt on the cover (there is one sensor on each side of the cover), as well as the vent tube that’s on the top of the cover. For those who may have been wondering if it can be done, the question has been answered.
