Best part about ordering parts from Euro companies is the candy they send in the packages

The postal customer service sounds about on par with the USPS as well.

Haha. Gotta love europe for all the candy :P

Anyway, ive had a few surprises in the last few days.
An old friend who is going to modify my oil pan/sump send me a few pictures of the process. And it looks very promising!

It was sandblasted on the outside, and he started to draw the larger pan so theres room for more oil, and of course some baffles. Do i need this? no. But we do this because we can





Also, after months of waiting, my part from Nissan finally arrived! Only took about 2 months as it needed to be shipped all the way from Japan. But here it is!
Item number 62500-53F00 - The complete front!


So now we can finally get it all put properly together so my painter can do his job.

Wow, how did you manage to get a new front core support assembly, I thought they were discontinued?

I just went to the local Nissan dealership, threw around 500USD after them and they ordered one from japan. 2 months after it arrived But yes, they are getting hard to get.
