GARAGE ACTIVE (SS-ACTIVE) NISSAN PILLOW KIT FOR GT-R

Description

REPLACE COMPLIANT RUBBER BUSHINGS WITH SOLID METAL FOR ULTIMATE CONTROL AND FEEDBACK. The Nissan Pillow Kit replaces key suspension and chassis rubber bushings with solid, spherical metal bearings (“pillow ball” joints). This comprehensive kit and its associated suspension-specific kits dramatically reduce deflection under load. As a result, you get telepathic steering response, sharper turn-in, and a direct, unfiltered connection to the road surface for serious performance driving.

Product Highlights

ELIMINATES BUSHING DEFLECTION FOR PRECISE HANDLING: Factory rubber bushings are designed to isolate vibration and provide comfort, but they flex under cornering, braking, and acceleration forces. Replacing them with solid pillow ball joints virtually eliminates this flex, ensuring that steering and suspension inputs translate immediately and accurately to wheel movement.

COMPREHENSIVE 12-PIECE KIT FOR COMPLETE CHASSIS UPGRADE: The main “Nissan Pillow Kit” is a comprehensive set designed to replace a wide array of critical bushings throughout the front and rear suspension and subframe, providing a transformative upgrade to the entire chassis’s responsiveness and precision.

SPECIALIZED SHOCK PILLOW KIT FOR UPPER MOUNT UPGRADES: The separate “Shock Pillow Kit” targets the top mounts of the shock absorbers/struts. Replacing these rubber mounts with solid pillow bearings further sharpens initial turn-in response and ensures the damper reacts instantly to suspension movement without delay from bushing compliance.

DIRECT CONNECTION AND ENHANCED DRIVER FEEDBACK: The primary result is a transformative increase in communication. The driver receives clear, detailed information about road surface and tire grip through the steering wheel and chassis, allowing for more precise control at the limit. This is an essential modification for circuit driving or aggressive canyon runs.
