Mine are nolathane. Just got them thru the local suspension shop. They had the numbers listed and everything. I heard some prices the aussie guys were paying for Noltec bushes (as apparantly they couldn't find nolathanes, but I have no idea why?!?) and mine seemed alot cheaper in comparison.
I was a little dissapointed when I got them. I was expecting a very high build quality and they are far from it. Still look the part tho and will make it handle great I'm sure.

Nolathanes work good as. I've got them in my '89 EA fairmont (with 300,000kms on the clock) and it drives better than a 5 year old AU. Also Mikuni, if you want me to do something about those rims, i'll most likely be in Wellington until Saturday. I sent you a pm with my number

I got the bulk of mine from repco (had a mte working there) some they didnt have coz they dont bring them into NZ coz nobody wants them....except me.... pedders may be worth a try as the ones I couldnt get from repco my old man got from pedders in oz. They dont make a kit (for wags at least) for the whole car so you gotta but them individually, I rekun mine ended up round $600+ not in cluding the adjustable panhard. good luck bro, if you have a any probs Im almost an expert...haha

At the mo I'm getting both control arms, the trailing arms- both ends, and there is already new ones in the new panhard rod and will be with the sway bars and shocks. Can you get new spring rubber tops and bottoms?!
