Nissan heritage parts programme

Not sure if there's any weight behind this article but Nissan will apparently be re-commencing production of performance parts for past models

Over the past few years I've noticed from my own experience that getting your hands on performance parts for a GTR particularly anything nismo has become a rarity so good news if this is legit. Expect some crazy prices for parts though

Its great news....looking forward to more detail

And this would have nothing to do with the 25 year rule in the USA and Nissan wanting to cash in on this new market.

Factory parts plus GTR tax plus Nismo tax equals great profit margin for Nissan.

Legitimately what are gonna be your options once(if) this goes live? Pricey as they are they might still manage to undercut the rare unique parts by even a little bit. Plus OE will ensure that the remaining Skylines that haven't been tracked, drifted or riced stay in as close to mint condition as possible. Also the option to convert a modified vehicle you buy from someone else back to stock anyone?? If they are above your budget, you probably aren't the right person to be owning a 20 year old car, and a Skyline to boot. Obviously value is different to certain people, if you intend to prep your car for the track you might go with cheaper options while someone who intends to keep their Skyline as a more show style car will pay top dollar.

Really I am just pleased that Nissan are continuing to support our cars.

It will at least regulate the used parts market.

some of the crazy drug money prices will need to be justified, and even if its pricey, brand new genuine gear is excellent news for us, not having relying on 25 year old integral parts.
