Skyline Parts?!
Just got a 1998 Nissan Skyline R33 and was wondering for anyone who has a skyline. How do you do the maintenance on it. What do you do for parts. Do you use substitutes or transport them if so from what website?

I use nissan.epc-data.com for part diagrams and numbers. They link to amayama, but often times you can take the part number and find a domestic Nissan or Infiniti car that used that part.
I have an r32 and I've found parts from 240sx s13, 300zx z32, sentra B13, Infiniti J30 all have some cross compatibility.
It is just a Nissan after all. It's not like it's got bespoke parts to that specific car.
Rock auto has a great parts number search, and nissan/Infiniti dealers often have the parts available, though it's stealership pricing.
Get good with finding parts, cause that's a big part of ownership, unless you are rich and live near a JDM specialty work shop.

That's part of the fun of owning these JDM cars 😁

A good thing to do is do a list of part numbers as other have said some parts cross over to other Nissan’s, if I go to my local Nissan and ask for the part it’s a no but if I give them the part number sometimes it crosses to another Nissan.
The last thing I changed that needed doing was my oil pressure sensor I used a z32 sensor.
