CLIFFS NOTES:
-stock bushing is a piece of sh*t
-SPL aluminum diff bushing set (from a 350Z) adapted to my Z
-350Z bushing is slightly larger diameter than 370Z bushing
-removing stock rear bushing sucks hairy ballsack
-installing aluminum rear bushing sucks hairy ballsack (could have been avoided if I had access to a lathe)
-installed bushings feel great but noisy as f*ck
-fitted 1mm sheets of EPDM rubber between subframe & bushings and between subframe & body; helped make the noise tolerable
-should be less noise w/ stock gears
-I wish I knew someone was working on a set of urethane bushings earlier
