Back again - 306DT #2

[SteveXTDT]

Bonjour mes amis!
Great to be back on Fast Frogs after hibernation from previous incarnation. I am now on my second 306 DT, this one is a 98 XTDT in Red which I picked up with a dropped cambelt. My previous car was a 93 XRDT with a nasty gearbox noise after 388k km. Long story short; the newer car had a smashed camshaft and bearing journals and punched the end out of the vacuum pump. Replaced same with parts from the old car and voila as the French say.

Now done 20K km in the newbie and loving it.
Problem is the man at VTNZ reckoned the control arm bushes (rear ones of course) were buggered.
I now need a set of new bushes - does anyone know who's the best supplier for them?

XT's been parked up two days (having to drive a Nissan!) and starting to suffer withdrawal already so it's kinda urgent.

Try speed.co.nz - really helpful and quite good too

also try the mount shop. might be cheaper than speed.co.nz

Hey guys, I went with Speed and couldn't be happier. I emailed them, they replied promptly, sent a pdf to check we were talking about the same thing and then had the bushes ready to when I called for them this afternoon. Might've got them cheaper somewhere else maybe (they were $108 + gst each) but there was no hassles, the bushes fit (in car already) and we're ready to roll again.
