Genuine NISMO Rear Upper Link Bush – R32 R33 R34 GT-R S14 S15 – 55157-RS580
Improve rear suspension stability and response with a Genuine NISMO Reinforced Rear Upper Link Bush, designed for compatible Nissan Skyline GT-R, Skyline and Silvia suspension applications.
Developed as a performance-focused replacement for the original factory suspension bush, this genuine NISMO component features reinforced, higher-durometer rubber construction to help reduce unwanted suspension movement and bush deflection under load.
By providing increased resistance to excessive suspension movement, the NISMO rear upper link bush helps maintain more consistent rear suspension geometry, improve wheel control and deliver a more precise, predictable handling feel during cornering and acceleration.
Unlike solid or polyurethane suspension bushes, NISMO's reinforced rubber design retains a degree of compliance, offering an excellent balance between improved handling response, ride comfort and everyday drivability.
Whether you're refreshing worn factory suspension components, rebuilding genuine NISMO rear upper links or upgrading your Skyline GT-R or Silvia for spirited street driving, genuine NISMO bushes provide an excellent performance-oriented replacement.

Why Upgrade to NISMO Reinforced Suspension Bushes?
Factory rubber suspension bushes are designed to provide a balance between comfort, vibration isolation and handling performance. However, after years of use, these bushes can deteriorate, crack, soften or develop excessive movement.
Worn rear suspension bushes can contribute to inconsistent suspension movement, unwanted changes in wheel alignment under load and reduced confidence during cornering.
The NISMO Reinforced Rear Upper Link Bush provides an uprated rubber alternative designed to better control suspension movement while retaining the benefits of a rubber-mounted suspension system.
This makes it an excellent choice for Nissan enthusiasts looking to improve suspension precision without the additional harshness that may accompany rigid suspension bushes.

Please confirm the correct link assembly and bush position before ordering, as applications and required quantities can vary.
Quantity Required
This listing includes one (1) genuine NISMO rear upper link bush only.
The NISMO catalogue specifies two (2) bushes per applicable rear upper link set. Please select the required quantity when ordering.
The total number of bushes required for your vehicle depends on the rear suspension configuration and which links are being rebuilt.
Important Installation Information
This bush requires press-fit installation into a compatible rear upper suspension link.
Correct installation requires suitable pressing equipment and care to avoid damaging the new bush or suspension arm.
Professional installation is recommended. Follow the Nissan or NISMO workshop procedures for bush positioning, suspension assembly and final tightening.
A professional wheel alignment is recommended after replacing rear suspension components.
As the NISMO rubber compound is firmer than standard factory bushes, a slight increase in road feedback or noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) may be noticeable.
