Hey All,
So I'm looking to run BC Racing Coilovers on my GTi-R, but I want to replace my rear swaybar links while I'm at it. Can anyone fill me in on a part number for the rear links that will work with those coilovers? I know a lot of you guys run them, so I was hoping you could help me out on this. Thanks in advance.

I'll try to run the stock links as I am installing BC racing coilovers too this week. If it doesn't work I'll try to find something else.
Maybe Whitelines swaybar works?

He's talking about the links, not the swaybar. I also have the whiteline 3 points adjustable rear swaybar already installed so I'll try to figure something while I'll be under the car.
Thanks Pulsar666. If they do work for the B.C. setup, do you have a part number for the stock ones or a cross to a domestic? Mine have long past bit the bullet and I've done so many searches with no result.
Part number doesn't cross with anything domestic. I checked last week for someone else and they did fit some European nissan models but nothing in North America.
Part number is 56260-60y60
Hey Pulsar666,
Did you have any luck with your stock links on the new coilovers? I wish I had that option, but mine are shot. I did come across a couple of parts that may just do the trick. Nolathane makes a lot of bushings for our cars, and I noticed that they have a "cut-to-length" linkage available, and poly bushings to fit. Part numbers 42791, and 42363. Does the "cut-to-length" linkage fit the GTi-R? Because the listing is for the N14 Excl GTi-R, but not the N14 GTi-R. According to the site is says the length range is 80-320mm, and the ball stud is 10mm. What is this measurement referring to? I think it's thread. If I can identify this measurement and match it, this could give us all a good aftermarket option. Unless someone can offer some other solution via adjustable linkages or something that worked for them.
Also, where do you order your stock parts from? Nissan in Edmonton won't touch it unless it happens to be a part that matches a North American market car. I haven't been able to access the nissan4u site either recently.
Well I still didn't touch the car in the last 2 weeks and I am supposed to go later today to install my brake upgrade at the same time as the coilovers so if I have the time to install the rear I'll come back to you.
About my stock parts, I order them from my local dealer and I did that for the last 10 years. I have a friend working at the part counter ordering me anything I want if I give him a working part number, even if it's a special order from Japan. Try another dealer if the one close to you is too scared to even try anything.
I can confirm you that stock rear links works with BC coilovers. I just came back from installing everything without any problem. While you install the coilovers push the swaybar up before bolting the coilovers to the spindle or it will sit too low and won't clear control arms.
Wanted to provide you all with an update to rear swaybar link fitment. My stock links were destroyed and damaged beyond repair (seized, stripped, you name it...). For those out there looking for a replacement for stock links or upgraded bushings, I can confirm that Nolathane Part # 42791 will work with our vehicles. Just cut to appropriate length.
