Used wishbones vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
The R32 ran from 1989 to 1993 and the R33 from 1993 to 1998, and while they share a family resemblance the front subframe geometry changed between generations, so a direct swap is unlikely. Always confirm with the breaker quoting against both registrations before buying, as the mounting points and geometry differ enough to make a mismatch a safety risk.
The R33 covers 1993 to 1998 and the R34 covers 1998 to 2002, and these are distinct generations with different front suspension geometry, so parts crossing that boundary are not a straightforward swap. Confirm with the breaker against both your registration and the donor car's registration to be sure before ordering.
Yes, it can matter — the GT-R variants with the RB26DETT carry significantly more weight and power than the GTS and GTS-T models, and the running gear including wishbone dimensions can reflect that difference. When requesting a quote, tell the breaker both the generation (R32, R33 or R34) and the engine fitted to your car so they can match the correct part.
Yes, absolutely — NS (nearside, left) and OS (offside, right) wishbones are handed and are not interchangeable, so always specify which side you need when contacting the breaker. Double-check by looking at the car yourself before ordering, as getting the wrong side means the part will be useless.
Trim level itself does not determine wishbone fitment, but the GT-R and GTS-T use different running gear because of their different engines and weights, so generation and engine are what actually matter here. Tell the breaker your exact model variant and generation and they can confirm the correct part from a matching donor car.
The R33 ran through to 1998 and the R34 began in 1998, so a 1998 car could be either generation depending on build date, making year alone unreliable at that boundary. Confirm with the breaker against the full registration of both vehicles rather than relying on model year, as mixing R33 and R34 geometry would not be safe.
