Anyone know the Nissan Part Numbers for the Bonnet Struts on a Series 2 RS Four S. My local Nissan spare parts doesn't even register the Stagea. I have tried giving them the part numbers that I can find on the current bonnet struts but they come up with nothing. My bonnet will not stay up by itself now, so I am in need of either regassing these struts or buying new.

Thanks

David

They appear to be both the same Stooge, '94 ~ 99 (A32) series.

You could do what I did;

Drive to Strut fitting place, find service guy, have cup of coffee, pay money (maybe $80) & leave. The struts I was sold were Maxima jobs according to my man.

I posted the part numbers here somewhere a few years ago admittedly but can't find post now. (See sig., it's a personal problem :wub: )

The service guy will run a tape measure over the originals for length of stroke & read off/work out the newton metres force (gas charge x piston D/d or something), swap over the original clips & you are done. That's for the fronts, bonnet. The boot lid struts were more of a challenge, I had to get them from Sons of Nippon.

Or maybe;

The nice Strut Specialist service guy might just ID your original struts for you so you can go buy them somewhere else cheaper?

I bought some maxi ones from ebay last week these ones:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NISSAN-MAXIMA-BONNET-GAS-STRUTS-NEW-/231052942015?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35cbd41abf&_uhb=1

fitted perfectly and work perfectly almost identical except for the plastic casings on the end.

sweet, thanks for that

might grab those ones, as it looks like they have the metal ends on them, whereas the others i listed above don't

cheers mate

I needed to get the Cima boot redone this morning so I got a mobile guy out to regas them.

He quoted $99 front or rear to replace or regas the stagea ones as well.

So if you need fronts, go to ebay, if you need rears in Sydney

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
