may not necessarily be a problem. it could very well be on back order. the nismo shop, aka west covina nissan, is a middle man, just like most companies that sell parts are. a lot of the things that they sell aren't kept in inventory. if you want the bushing sooner, cancel the order and call around to see who has them in stock and can get them to you sooner.

I've ordered several times from them without a problem. Like numbnuts said, it's probably on back order. Just call their customer service line and check the status of your order

Most probably they're coming from a warehouse in Japan, and it's coming on a boat. Once it arrives in the states, probably get shipped to you regular UPS or FedEx or USPS or whatever.

you won't regret it. i may seem biased since they're local to me, but to build the bad a** cars that they have built, they have to know their s***. plus their prices are always better than most of their competition.
