I remember reading we can get discounted parts through Dave B but then I recently read he is no longer around? Is there any place recommended to order some OEM parts and possibly get a discount? I'm looking to order a water pump, timing chain tensioner and guides, and some seals. Was looking at courtesyparts.com but just wondering if I can get them any cheaper.

Thanks

 

i hear everyone talk about courtesy

 

Try http://http://www.nissanpartszone.com/

They are usually cheaper than Courtesy.

Cheaper than Courtesy and Nissan Parts Zone.

 

I was trying to find O2 sensors for my 99 at nissan parts zone, but when i put in the year and model, it doesnt list o2 sensors??!!

 

Look under Engine Control Module

 

With nissanpartszone you need to know what major assembly the part is used in. Not having a search function is a short coming.

Thanks. Another question; are o2 sensors for a cali spec max different from fed spec?

 

The O2's are "color coded" in the FSM as to which O2 sensor goes where. Cali spec 99's have 4 of them all on the y pipe ( 1 before and 1 after each of the precats). Feds have 1 before each cat and another one after the main catalytic converter ( located under the car at just about where the shifter is) The main converter uses a smaller sized O2 than those located on the y pipe .

 

I found www.1stnissanparts.com to have pretty good prices and good service (will call), they are 5 minutes away from my house. I have been buying from them for the past few years since they are closer to me then courtesy but most importantly their prices are also lower. 3 weeks ago I bought pretty much everything that you described while replacing the inner timing cover o-rings.

I just compared the prices for water pump (21010-31U85) and chain tensioner (1307031U0A) between www.1stnissanparts.com and www.nissanpartszone.com. While nissanpartszone had slightly better price for water pump, 1stnissanparts had slightly better prices for tensioner. I think overall their prices are pretty close so these should be good alternatives. I never bought anything from nissanpartszone so I can't tell you how their service is but seems like a lot people here recommend them.
