This recent thread http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,8324.msg81607/topicseen.html got me thinking about a collaborative way of storing information about where to find and source parts and what prices they should be listed at.

 

1 way we can do this is via a shared Google Spreadsheet.

 

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AvtGt5V5rGDVdDdoRkxsdGNueGtqTjNGYkgzQVlaanc&hl=en

 

In order to be able to edit the Spreadsheet you need to do 2 things:

 

1. Have a Google account. If you already use gmail or another Google product you will probably have 1 already.

2. Join the Auszcar Google Group. This gives you edit rights to the spreadsheet.

Add whatever part numbers you have and other details as applicable.

 

I might make this a separate post depending on how popular the idea is. Post is now separate.

 

I need your help putting all this information together.

 

A quick Google search of Auszcar.com reveals many threads with part no's listed in them. I want to try and put them into this spreadsheet for future reference.

What do you guys think?

I think it's a stupendous idea Gav!

 

Small issue so far - I joined the Goggle group (as GongZ) but I don't see how I can edit the sheet.

*edit - I just figured this out - had to click on 'Log in' button at the top right corner*

 

If the spreadsheet idea is successful it could become a large document and require splitting up into categories. It would be sensible to use the chapter titles from the Haynes (or other) manual as the categories eg.;

 

Engine

Cooling

Fuel

Exhaust

Ignition

Clutch

Gearbox

Propeller Shaft

Driveshafts and Diff

Brakes

Electrical

Suspension

Steering

Body

 

I would also suggest that you add a column for genuine Nissan part numbers before the supplier's part number. Obviously this would not apply for Toyota brake bits or non-standard parts like stainless brake hoses, but it is very useful for finding genuine or substitute parts.

if you need some part numbers give me a bell.

 

When i get some time i will try fill in some list prices i have at my store. However I will only be working here for approx 3 more weeks as i will be moving on to  go workout the mines.

 

So i fear the list may get outdated, however it will give some idea of a base price for an afermarket price
