Where to get my diff bushings replaced

So I looked under my car and saw that the rear diff bushing is leaking. So it is time for it to go. I am planning on using whiteline or Z1, haven't decided yet. My local shadetree is busy and hasn't done one. Do any of you have a recommendation on where I can get one installed at a good price?

I had mine done at Project Import in Anaheim. It was $500-550 including the whiteline bushing. About 2 years ago...

I wish Chatsworth wasn't so far away. I will probably go to my local mechanic, he is charging 380, a little more to change the diff fluid. I might even get the Z1 subframe reinforcements.

Corner3Garage is the one I go to if I can. They're exceptional and Nissan specialists. As for price, I wouldn't know as I haven't done that particular service, but it wouldn't hurt to give them a call.

Should be fairly close to you too.

They are really close, but they quoted me around 660 yikes. I would definately think about going to Chatsworth, heard good things about Seb. I eventually want to have a tune done.

How are the Whitelines holding up? Z1 tells me that there's handle heat better.

well, when i lived in south oc. i would only let corner 3 touch my car. steve and nima are great guys they wont bull**** you. i used white line on my car and had no problems. YMMV.

also buy the bushings and take them in to corner 3. they will only charge you labor. cheaper that way.
