    The very obvious place to buy Nissan parts is ....... NISSAN

    I remember a while ago someone mentioning that they had problems with "nismo" and "greddy" rad caps, but no probs when they went back to OEM nissan. 1.2bar I think is stock TT pressure?

    So, how much do ripper offer Nissan charge for a radiator cap ?
    How much have others charge for the Nissan and the Nismo ones ?
    How much are they at Supercheap, Repco, Auto One etc?

    Would be good to know instead as comments like 'Also the most obviously expensive!!!' without any details

    Who's got attitude ???

    The question was where to buy Nissan or Nismo radiator caps.
    You get upset at the obvious suggestion to buy a Nissan part from Nissan.
    Never though of that one did you ?
    Ask an obvious question and you get an obvious answer

    Nissan may well be more expensive, but for once it would be interesting to know some facts, ie how much they are from various vendors

    What I've found in Nissan parts is that Nissan Oz is about 1.5 - 2 times the price of Courtesy Nissan in the US. Add shipping and it's mostlyt just the same.

    Non genuine Nissan parts could be any price.

    Stef is on the money at least call your local Nissan dealer for a price.

    You may be pleasantly surprised, particularly when you factor in shipping etc.

    I recently bought a new key from Coz with a couple of other small things. Turns out it would have been cheaper to buy from my local Nissan dealer.

    Surprise hey? I should have at least called Nissan before placing the order.

    My local Nissan dealer will often give trade discounts on Z32 items in stock as they simply don't sell them very often.

    UAS may also have some in stock, contact them via the website.

    Or yes conceptz will definately have.

    Be aware that the Nismo cap is slightly higher pressure than standard at 1.3 bar.

    as others have said, ask Nissan first. Some products can be available cheap there

    Hmm ok will do... I just thought Nissan Aus was always just a blatant rip off, so didn't even consider it. I'll buzz em tomorrow.

    URHYNS, you got your infill panel from Caz. I went on their site and couldn't find one, do you remember what part number she uses and approximate cost?
