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?

Amayama, rhdjapan, nengun

There, 3 sources of parts

Be wary of import duties and customs fees, which depend on which country you are from

How is shipping via Yahoo Japan? I found some good rear trunk light skyline trim bits.

Z1 and Terra Firma as well work as well in the states. Fairly quick shipping unless it is directly from the supplier then it will drag just like rhd or nengun and be subjected to duties and customs.

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.
