Where to buy distributor??? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I'd like to get a new distributor. My CAS is f'd up and is causing hot start issues. I would like to buy one new and I am weary of buying one from Autozone. A friend of mine bought a dizzy from them and had to get three before he got a good one.

Any suggestions on where to buy it? Courtesy Parts sells it for $369.76

You probably aren't going to find one much cheaper than that new...your best bet is to surf the wts threads and find one...

From my past experience I'd rather just pay for the New OEM part rather than a rebuilt one from an aftermarket company. A distributor is a pretty important part.

I got my distributor new from a local Nissan dealership. The part was shipped from either a Texas or a Cali dealership. Paid between $400.000 - $500.00. The part was ready to be picked up after only waiting for about 3 - 4 days.
