Tie rod ends are the same as ball joints, right?

If so, ring Nissan, they can organise those for you.

Otherwise do what I suggested before when you PM'd me, and search.

People here are happy to help, but you have to try and do some research.

Searching for ball joints found my thread from two months ago, and also enlightened me on my irritating wiper problem. Awesome!

And not sure where that relay was, but looks like the 4WD relay to me.

Tie rod end is on the end of the steering rack, the ball joint is on the ends of both the upper and lower control arms linking the hub upright together.

Ball joint go with what Ryan found in his topic, as for the tie rod end go to Nissan.

have had a search on the relay, cant find what it is only that its a bracket relay. will ring nissan tomorrow and see if they can find it out

ill buy the 2 lights, just in case one side is better quality, if so i can put both in and both sides will look the same :)

thanks for your help mate!

for postage ill go EMS/AIR

what postage would i pick ? b or c ?

thanks

Two headlights via EMS will be around $200... from experience :(

gave main north nissan a call about the relay, they couldn't even tell me what it done, only that they could get 1 for $150 in japan, 2-3 weeks wait, going to a couple of wreckers on friday, see if i can get me one :)

Is this a build thread or a repair thread? Are you just fixing this up to be a nice daily or do you want it to be unique?

If it's the latter, rip off the flares, find an aero bar and fit some aftermarket overfenders. :banana:

Granted these examples are not a M35, but you may get the idea...

What I'm getting at though, is that if you're planning on modifying it you may be able to save some decent coin in the long run by just getting it on the road, looking however it does, and then using overfenders instead of the standard stuff..?

but wont buying 4 overfenders cost more than buying one standard flare?

    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
    • There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...
    • With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
