- Does your 350Z, 370Z, G35 or G37 have wheel hop you're trying to eliminate? The factory rear subframe bushings are the culprit as they allow for a lot of movement to increase driving "comfort".
In this video we show an alternative to solid or polyurethane subframe bushings as those parts require A LOT of work to install. These collars give you a hybrid of solid and rubber bushings, greatly improving driving characteristics.

My goodness that under carriage is in really good shape. 😎👍
Ya that's why I picked this car, it was super clean everywhere.
I have thought about doing this mod to mine also. Thanks for showing how it's done.
Ya we'll see how it does on the test drive. I think it's a fantastic value mod.
Oh yeah!!! I did mine in (Jan 2018) earlier this year. I bought the collars during black Friday 2017. It was a very easy install especially if you have a lift.
How do you like the driving characteristics after?
love your vids and your chillness man
Thank you so much for being a viewer! Hope you liked this one, I think it's going to help a lot of people get the power to the ground and do it easily.
Anthony, Thank you for write up on the collars...Just installed the Z1 collars and made a great difference in rear stability, no more rear shimmy under load change...Also got rid of a rear mystery clunk I had...I highly recommend this Mod if you want to vastly improve your performance handling....
Glad to hear this made a big difference for you!
@@AnthonyJ350 Still chasing the Intermittent P1078...R&R Exhaust Bank 1 Cam Sensor, still intermittent...Just cleaned the Crank Sensor, we'll see if that did any good...I hate shooting a parts cannon in hopes of a fix!
This mod, and the poly diff bushing will make the power go to the wheels great. Great video!!
For sure! I need to film the diff install on another vehicle, I had mine done already. Do you run poly engine mounts?
@@AnthonyJ350 not yet. I have poly transmission and diff mounts. I really want the engine mounts from Z1 once I mine blow.
@@Z33Garage You should look into ordering these, they're pretty cheap too. I think I'm going to do the poly motor mounts from Z1. Not looking forward to trying to get at those top bits though...
@@AnthonyJ350 haha yeah those are prob a pita to install. Everyone who has em though says they are totally worth the work though.
@@Z33Garage ya I heard the power delivery feels good with new motor mounts. I think poly is the way to go for my car as I'm building a pro touring style of car. Solid would just be too much.
As someone else who lives in the rust belt. I can appreciate your attention to rust proofing. I will be installing differential bushing next weekend. I suspect, I will eventually be doing the subframe as well. LoL
Glad you like the details! I do plan to make a rust proofing for the car in the off season when it comes off the road.
Looking forward to doing to my G.. well spoken and informative.. Peace
Glad you liked the video!
Love the 350z mod videos Anthony.
Glad you're enjoying them!
Hello Anthony, I just bought these subframe collars for black friday and I'm looking forward to installing them. Thank you for the detailed video, and looking forward to your review video!
I think you'll be impressed how much more planted the vehicle is after.
@@AnthonyJ350 oh man, you're making me excited 😂
@@AnthonyJ350 night and day difference! I love how my wheel hop is non-existent now! Thanks for the video once again!
One extra thing I had to do was to unbolt my top hats because my car is pretty low 😂
@@zeeDeveel523 That's great to hear they cleaned up the slop in the suspension for you, thanks for letting us know!
@@AnthonyJ350 they definitely did! Well worth spending my black friday budget on them 😂
And you're welcome! I'm glad to be able to give feedback!
Keep up the good work
Thanks!
Great videos as always man keep it up I feel spoiled with all the Great Z content lately👍
Enjoy it, we'll try to make as much as we can before we store the car.
I was looking at some of your old vids what ever happened with the targa 350z build and will you ever go forced induction?
@@michaeljones3972 I'm leaning towards an N/A build, but if I do forced induction it will be a super charger, most like the roots style from Stillen because it looks factory. I recently thought about nitrous because Z1 has an adapter that also has a fuel gauge and I could run everything clean and build something to hide the bottles and make it super clean
@@michaeljones3972 As for the targa my buddy Tyler still has it, I plan to visit him soon.
The sound deadener is a great idea. I plan to use spray silicon on the bushings so that the inserts slide right on easier. So I will officially add this job to when I do the diff bushings.👍👍
Let me know how you think the car drives when you get it all done.
@@AnthonyJ350 it gives great comfort to see that you are hands on which lends to making great content and that you are experienced by trade so I will gladly!
@@ahumm8280 I try to be hands on as much as possible, but when things get really specialized I will bring my vehicles into shops. But people do the same with me when they need electrical work done.
When dropping out the sub frame assembly, you have to drill out the bushings and burn the remaining bushing for the best results!! I was going to go with the collar system, but I decided ultimately on polyurethane bushings.
Thanks so much for letting us know what you did! People definitely need to know.
Did you ever do a review vid regarding the sub frame collars you installed?
No not yet. Probably this summer when my hoist is operational and give a better vantage point on video.
I did this on my Q60, no more wheel hop :)
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
I did the full removal and installed subframe bushings and it was a bitch. lol. but it's all out race not a street car so short-term pain long-term fun. thanks for the video helped with a problem I was having with reassembly.
Totally makes sense for a race car. Have Fun driving!
that area u showed with all that dirt buildup. mine scared the shit out of me. i poked at the plastic & heard crunch crunch like rust would do. oh no, i thought. nah just mud, rocks. metal was ok. whew!
Now you know another to watch out for and keep clean
Great video
I fitted mine today and now have a small knock at low speed
Did you have any noise from yours ?
Make sure it's torqued to spec after driving it. You will get a little NVH. It just knocks once every time you slow down?
Nice bro , do they have bushing for the front as well
Thanks! Z1 has a lot of bushing solutions for these cars so you'll definitely want to check their web site. www.z1motorsports.com/
Great video, but I have a question I hope you can answer. If you undo the rear support bolts but leave the front 2 attached still, will the rear still lower down at all?
I have a sedan and am looking at installing the Bell Raceworks diff brace, but the trunk is in the way so I need to lower the subframe an inch or so to slip the bolt and sleeve in and I'm hoping to not have to drop the whole thing.
I would say you have a better change if you loosen them at least. Make sure you have a floor jack underneath to help support the subframe while you're working on it and use good jack stands.
@@AnthonyJ350 Thanks for the quick reply, will do!
I recently noticed the rear of my Z has become loose after the past few events. Everything in the rear is tight thinking it could be my subframe bushings
Definitely inspect them and check if they're still good. If the rubber is fine I would install these collars.
Can you do a review on this? Did you feel any difference?
I'll make a review soon, but I did notice a difference of how the car applies power. Much better.
What would you say was the overall install time not counting the painting of the parts?
I would say if you never did it actual install time if you kept at it 4 to 5 hours. Cause when I film it usually takes twice as long. The first night I took off all the parts then the day after I installed the collars and put it back together.
So did u see a difference from installing the collars? I feel some play in the rear of my car so I can’t decide if these will do or should I replace the bushings. Let me know thanks
The car was much more planted afterwards. The install was easy so if your bushings are still pretty good I would go for these.
Do you need an alignment after installing these? Thanks!
No you shouldn't, you won't be affecting the alignment. I would do other parts of the suspension and get an alignment done so you're getting more done.
Shop said my rear cradle support is rotting will this help if I install it and give my car a corrosion resistant undercoat? 2011 Infiniti g37x
Not with rotted out bushings. I would upgrade to polyurethane if they're done. If they look ok you can put these in.
How does the car feel post installation? Is there a notable difference?
I honestly don't know yet lol. I just put it together last night and I still have to service the brakes. I will be putting out a review video for you guys with driving impressions.
Anthony. Please start using por15. It is the best rust neutralizer/preventer
You have to brush that on right? Also it doesn't do well with UV light correct? Not that it matters since it's under the vehicle.
AnthonyJ350
Yeah. It brushes on. They have a uv top coat protector to. I just use some undercoating if required.
A small can goes a long way. A long long way
@@lanesteele240 Ya my buddy used it on his 81 Toyota pickup. It's very tough
11.32 what bracket are you needing to remove?
The steel black bracket the runs the width of the car.
Did you have a slight creaking sound leaving a driveway? I have a slight creaking sound coming off the driveway
Nope, everything sounded the same after.
the bar you have removed has rusted on my car and then broke, I am not sure how to remove and install a new one, do you know any tutorial that would show that?
No sorry I don't have a specific video on that.
Can’t you get the underbody sprayed to protect against rust?
Totally can but it's messy and I don't want it all over this car. There is also Krown rust treatment which is like an oil bath.
How has the mod worked out? Happy with the upgrade?
So far it's been fantastic. Car plants very well when I accelerate.
Notice a difference in handling/feel afterwards?
More responsive and just felt more stable. Most likely because we removed a lot of slop out of the rear end.
Did you have any squeaking or go back in to lube up?
No none. The rear suffrage doesn't see that much movement and doesn't pivot. So noise isn't an issue. Also this is a metal insert. Squeaking usually happens with a polyurethane bushing in a pivoting part.
Where did you order your braces and under carriage parts from?
By the way great video and awesome work!
Thanks! The chassis bits I just searched for deals on Ebay.
AnthonyJ350 thank you! Can't wait to see more videos! And thanks for responding shows a lot about you!
@@AngelDaSaint13 No problem at all, I try to respond to everyone. Make sure to check out the channel because I've already made a bunch of videos on the car for you guys.
OH GOOD. I thought I was the only one to have welds that look like a 13 year old did it in tech school after smoking a joint.
Are you talking about the welds on the aluminum subframe, done by a robot?
@@AnthonyJ350 YES, I guess.
@@AnthonyJ350 I've seen better welds on a huffy.
Are the subframe collars worth it if my bushings have over 110,000 miles on them ? Or should I just buy completely new bushings??
Are the bushings cracked?
@@AnthonyJ350 no
@@g35tho11 I would say it's still worth putting in the collars. The nice thing is they're easy to install and really affordable. So you're not really wasting any time.
What's the mod called bro? The megan racing brace on the sub frame
You might find this whole video interesting, I cover all of them th-cam.com/video/PPEfhMLrxG0/w-d-xo.html
My 2015 370z automatic 35,000 miles. When I go out of park to reverse it clunks as if I didn't use the ebrake. But I always do. Most of the bushing look ok. Not sire till I get a camera underneath and view it. Any ideas
Clunk or a click? This video might help th-cam.com/video/3ipx1OWx3kk/w-d-xo.html
@@AnthonyJ350 clunk kinda like when your on a hill and don't use the parking break. And go from park to reverse it kinda clunky
hey man im checking out a 350z to purchase come across an 233,000 km 08 track model, is that amount of kms something to worry about with the z?
Hamster Smash there’s no such thing as a track edition 08. That would be my first concern
I would have the valve clearance checked and you have to consider the timing chain (mainly the guides) would need replacement eventually.
@@kingsavagez6368 www.carsguide.com.au/nissan/350z/price/2008/track ?
@@AnthonyJ350 hey man thanks, yeah I'm going to have it inspected by third party but I'm not sure if these engines are problems at this amount of KMs travelled
@@hamstersmash Not really if well taken care of. These engines have been around for a while and just have evolved. Just depends on maintenance and how hard it was driven.
3:28 Ferris Bueler!
How?
@@AnthonyJ350 'I highly recommend it' reminded me of when bueler was talking about the ferrari I think
@@jeremygalloway1348 lol I see.
Did you consider painting the chassis brace white to match the car(even though 99% of the time it won't be seen as well as its gonna get dinged and dirty from the road)? What's the name of that brace and who sells it?
No, wanted it red because that's the contrast of the vehicle and the other parts under the car are red.
Here the video on the parts th-cam.com/video/PPEfhMLrxG0/w-d-xo.html
@@AnthonyJ350 yea I noticed that after I commented lol. I'm about to be installing the collars and poly trans mount since csc went out on my hr and almost have transmission out to change clutch/flywheel, putting in a cmak, and ss lines.
Did you ever try the wilwood clutch reservoir upgrade? What year is your z?
@@jeremygalloway1348 Are you going to install the external clutch slave retro kit? That's my biggest pet peave of the HR how they went with an internal slave cylinder.
Does it affect car driving on snow???
I double it. Hard to induce wheel hop in low traction scenarios.
Does this help with wheel vibration? I'm on coilover and have 20x10+25 all around. After installing, I noticed alot of vibration while driving over 60 MPH.
Hmm if anything it will make it worse. But these are still needed. How stiff did you make the dampening setting? Also are your tires really low profile?
@@AnthonyJ350 all the way stiff.
@@BALLMVP Is it a race car or a street car?
@@AnthonyJ350 street car. Is a 2014 Q50 sport. Exactly my profile pic.
@@AnthonyJ350 yes, tires are low profile. 255/35/20
Does this raise the subframe ?
It would be the same as stock
No cleaning prep of the metal parts, just sprayed it on huh? lol
They're powder coated from Z1, not sure what I can really do before install.
My car is approaching 150k miles and I am taking it to Nissan to have the install a newly updated rear subframe on the weekend.
I would get the collars and have them installed at the same time.
@@AnthonyJ350 Wouldn't that void the warranty on a new subframe?
@@MrSnakedoctor85 That depends on the dealership.
Is this a 370Z or a 350Z
This was a 350Z. The 350Z has an aluminum rear sub frame while the 370Z is steel I believe.
