Is it just me that finds going out finding buying parts really frustrating. Either you get a smart arse red neck with attitude who thinks hes like gods gift to imports, or (dont mean to sound rude) someone who cant even speak english trying to sell you shit they dont even stock !!!!!!! arrrrrrrrrrrrhh, or give you a date for something to arrive that must circle the world like 10 times to get here its so long

How ****ing hard is it to have in stock a aftermarket front bar to like just have a look at. The whole industry is screwed like trying to sell a pair of standard series one indicators for $250 wot are like bloody cherry flavoured

I know this might start a few coments but F&^%*& me !!!!

I've encountered the same problems myself.

My advice is to ring your local Nissan dealer - parts are either in stock or take a week to arrive, and the prices of some bits are ridiculously cheep (whilst others are ridiculously expensive), so its often worth a call first.

Skippy, I have complete S1 front bar with indicators if you want it. Pic attached when it was on car. No bumper support though.

I have two front indicators [image] and a front bar support (cut to fit a FMIC) for sale.

I do not know what this is all worth, however I have been offered $100.00 for one single front indicator and I was set to sell the support for $250.00, however the buyer realised my S1 bar would not suit his S2.

How does $150.00 for the indicators and $200.00 for the bumper support or $300.00 for the lot sound? Or is that still too expensive for you?

I'm not far from Glenelg, so you will not have to worry about freight costs, etc.

I also have a bonnet, catch can, stock intercooler, orange side indicators and a mystery boss kit for sale.

Edit: I agree that Nissan can be ridiculously expensive with some parts -- like $500.00 for side mirrors. :whatsthat

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
