NX 2000 bolt pattern

Hey guys, I dont know if any of you guys remember, but I have a problem with my brake fluid pump housing. Well, its sorta sitting to high up for me to get a 93 maxima strut bar. So, I was wondering is our bolt pattern in the front struts the same as a Nissan NX2000? If you have a look on my car domain site, its page 5, you will see my problem. If the bolt pattern is slightly off, I can get a guy to correct this. Also, is the bolt pattern for a Nissan Sentra/200sx the same as ours too? Any advise would really be great as I am going to buy from the states, so I need to know before hand.

Thanks Eddie

Wow, that is a problem. I know shipping might be horrible, but what about using the tower mounts from a Maxima FSTB and the actual bar from an NX2000? Otherwise I say custom-bend a bar and mate it to the Maxima tower mounts.

Its not the bar I need, its the tower mounts from the NX2000 I need. I need the tower mounts to ark outwards passed the pump housing. If I go for the FSTB, I have a guy who can help me modify the bolt pattern.

Well, I just found this bar on ebay & it looks like it will fit fine on my car. Here is the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33591
It says its for a maxima, but have never seen it before.

Make sure you get a shipping quote first. If they charge an arm and a leg, I have an extra one of those I can sell for $10 + ACTUAL shipping. Something to consider.

I did ask about shipping one of those to New Zealand & they said around $50 US. Hey Mizeree, if you can send it for cheaper, then I will buy it. Whats wrong with the bar if you don't mind me asking....

I replaced it with a "prettier" one (Otto racing FSTB). Send me a PM with your shipping info, and I'll see what I can do.
