Hey all. Nedded a few small bits and pieces for the r33 gts-t and thought I would go to a nissan dealer to see what can be bought for the line. Walked into the spare parts office and was confronted by a display of NIZMO stickers. Thought to myself this is promising. Waited for a while (guy was on the phone) looking around and saw a Nissan calender with an r34 gtr. Cool.

To cut a long story short the guy behind the counter was the most helpful person I have spoken to concerning my r33. Most minor parts are stocked (filters, spark plugs, etc). If it has to come from japan it takes two weeks. From interstate it takes two days and if it comes from within Victoria half a day. I'm thinking about enquiring about a full consult service as well. Give them a go. :D

I got quoted $800 - ex Japan, for a Power Steering hose - All rubber! This was from Oakleigh Nissan I think, was over the phone...not a high pressure type of hose either.

Other things can be well priced though - N15 type "Nissan" logo badges were only $12 each!

yeah got quoted around 250 for a centre console lid. I used to go to nissan for services and they were absolutely crap!!! tensioned the belts all wrong and the car just didn't seem right. Cost me a grand to change the clutch and service. Another thing they said only 1 clutch kit will fit in it in aust. I'm like wtf, bullcrap. But the clutch was so roooted it had to be towed so i didn't want to tow somewhere else. so i just sed yea do it. took more than a few days to get there as well. 5000 kms after a major service i said can u service it again and tune it coz i'm getting epa'd. They replaced spark plugs again, after 5000kms i was like don't u check ur files mate? 6 of em 25 bux each. damn. This was at frankston nissan.

now i go to a friends workshop. But i buy nissan parts for it, i need a new rocker cover gasket, n e 1 know how much they are. Yes u are right the dudes behind the counter are kool, very friendly and helpful. Just not good experiences with the services.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
