    Hey everyone, been a while ;)
    I looking to do a massive parts order for my 300, all the way from a new starter, to lighting, right through to seals and small plastic clips.

    I've searched the stores I know, and stores I could find, and have located majority of the bits and bobs I'm after, but nowhere seems to have ALL of it.

    I made a thread in 2011 asking for stores, some seem to have closed and I'm hoping some may have opened?

    Am I dreaming here?
    What online store would have the largest range by experience?
    Or would I be better off listing my parts here in the wanted section, or trolling through eBay?

    If I have to I can just order from here and there but I'm hoping there is some place I haven't found or some secret squirrel parts dealer.
    And help would be great, thanks.

    2nd this.

    concept have the biggest range of parst of seen, from oem replacements to performance gear.

    Depending on what you after, i doubt youll be ablke to get EVERYTHING your after om one place, but if you can get the bulk of it from one place, its a start.

    Very true.
    I had a feeling this place would be best.
    The feeling of forking out a days pay for a bit of plastic still makes me cry, I try not to think about it....

    Make sure you stay under 1000$ to avoid paying import duties.

    I deal with Nick from CZP and he usually does his bit to help us out, keeping it below $1000. Who's to argue at the other end that a little plastic clip costs so much?

    I'd hit up Rob260 for a quote also. With the Aussie dollar not so great, buying local may not be that much more expensive, and good to support a local business where possible.

    The cheapest place to buy parts is in japan the aussie dollar is quite high at the moment at 95ish yen.

    I'm familiar with a log of the aftermarkets sites in Japan, but is there a good site for OEM parts?

    Best is to go through nissan japan through jesse streeter. Ull need nissan fast for part numbers though.

    Is also good for OEM parts that are hard to source, got my 2+2 AT driveshaft from there, was 1/3rd of the price and 6weeks quicker than what Nissan Aus was offering.

    This site is usdm parts only and the biggest problem with this supplier is they only use ups which charge through the roof for shipping. Coz and z1 use usps and fedex which have much cheaper shipping prices.

    Both Coz and Z1 were not able to source the OEM 2+2 AT NA drive shaft in my case, Courtesy parts did and were considerably cheaper and quicker than Nissan Australia, I received the drive shaft in 3 business days.

    Ill send u his email address he operates a small business in japan and can go to nissan directly for parts or bid on yahoo auctions for u and then send them to u. He takes a small 2% commission for his efforts but he is one of the best suppliers i have dealt with. Always replies to emails and very quick week 1 week delivery times.
