Huw Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Hi Just deciding whether to build own or replace existing with stock 240z one. Anyone know if these parts still available from Nissan (will call in NY) or do you have to make a donation to FedEx / USPS to get from states? I know they are readily available from parts suppliers in the US. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilltech Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 (edited) Just borrow one and copy it I say. You could use a slightly thicker steel section, and make a better job of it than the rather flimsy factory one. I'm on my second Nissan one. The factory powder coating eventually flakes off, allowing rust to form, meaning a strip back and repaint in any case.

Gtv240z Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 These should be available still through Nissan spare parts, I can still get them ex Japan and do regular bulk orders. Freight used to take 3 weeks but now takes about 8 weeks. The bracket and rod would be $75 delivered to you if you wanted it. See if Nissan have any in Australia and what their price is. These are designed for a big battery ns70 I think from memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gtv240z Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I also had to cut the brackets of the frame and remount to move battery over 20mm for some clearance for the 6th sock on the webers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
