Autobarn is where i got mine,
If you can go SuperPro bushes, found them better than Nolathane.

Thanks Jake, can you buy Superpro in the US or is it overseas only? I've poked around on their web site before but it's layout is kinda strange.

I assume Autobarn in an AU parts chain?

I'm Currently looking for leaf spring bushings too. I actually have a SuperPro catalogue and looked on their site but it doesn't specifically list the bushings for a coupe. I can only see a listing for the Sedan and the Ute. what's up with that? I called the Nissan dealer here and he actually found a listing for the bushings. I got him to order them last week after giving me a few chuckles, but today I'm told they're on backorder. On that same note, I can't find a part nubmer for the rear shocks for the coupe either? I've been told to take the springs and bushings to a spring shop and also take the old rear shocks to a parts store and have everything cross referenced to find the right part but what I really want is to actually find the part somewhere with out all the hassel. I mean it's not like I'm looking for parts for an old Edsel!!! Can any of our Aussie buddies get us part numbers of original or SuperPro bushings for leaf springs and maybe even coupe shocks???

Turboron - I bought rear shocks for my 1200 coupe not long ago. I don't know the part number but i'm pretty sure the only people making them now is Gabriel

The rear shocks in the 1200 coupe are the same as the B210 coupe, at least here in Australia they are.
The shackle bushes are the same for the 1200 sedan & coupe, as are the bushes at the front spring eye.
The Ute & Wagon use a slightly different setup at the front of the rear spring, but they are the same as each other.

When buying Nolathane bushes for the shackles, remember that they come in two lengths [spring eye & chassis] but the Nolathane people [I think it's Nolathane, the red bushes] got it wrong. They made the shorter bushes with the right length, but the hole is too big for the pin. I simply got 2 sets of the long bushes & carefully shortened them with a hacksaw.
Nobody seems to make the bushes that go into the chassis to anchor the two pins for the front spring mount, so these will need to be 'genuine' if you choose to replace them.
