[Gibbsygoodness]

hey guys, me again..

So the start motor is my project stagea is gone, its a 2002 vq25det awd and im just wondering what i can use to replace it or if anyone has one?
ive read a specific 350z starter will fit but have also been told it wont, not keen on dropping 500$ on a new one at this stage, so is anyone able to help me out here?

as always any help is greatly appreciated, thankyou.

Head overe to the Wagoneers forum (on SAU) - lots of info/discussion there -  VQ35 starters have been fitted without issue.
