Default Base and Nismo sway bar bushings the same?

Howdy,

I have a 2014 Base 370Z. Can I use the base sway bar bushings if I were to buy bare nismo front and rear sway bars? I looked everywhere, even online nissan part #'s

Bars will more than likely be different sizes, so the bushing will be different.

nismo sway is different, bushings seem to be the same. i only know because i ordered the nismo sways for my nismo, and they were exactly the same, minus the paint job and didnt come with new bushings

Ok cool. So the sway bars are different thickness between the Base 370Z and the Nismo 370Z, however the bushings remain the same? The only reason I ask, is when I looked online at nissan parts places, theres like 6 different bushing part #'s, base, nismo, and 40th anniversary, some places don't know at all, and the dealerships were no help at all. 1 parts guy was like, "i can't find this nismo sway bar in the system, it does not exist in or systems yet" ......
