  1. I pulled the prices from RockAuto.com THIS "should" be a direct link to the page detailing the manifold options, if it does not work then you can use the java or traditional server-page browsing method to get there. They list two options for the right hand side (ATP Part # 101139 & DORMAN Part # 674432) and one for the left hand side (DORMAN Part # 674431). Not sure if anything is different on your rig.. is it a gasoline burner? It is possible that Nissan made them different than on our North American models, given that ours are left hand drive
  2. Online aftermarket price (here in the states) is $45-$65 USD. Maybe IF you can find one aftermarket down there you might be able to save some money. Extractions? Are you/they sure that any need to be done?
  3. I think that was what B was replying too/about. I can see the logic behind B's statement... filling it with water would reduce/eliminate the risk of residue fuel fumes igniting during the welding process. Though excessive steam cleaning might be good enough... But when your talking about your life... is it really worth the risk?
  4. Why Venge? Have a reason or example?
  5. Future Shop... as much as I hated the employee's (true used car salesman) I miss the stores
  6. If I may suggest, instead of or in addition too emailing them the picture, you might also call them and provide a direct link to the picture like I did. The pictures I posted in the other thread were posted to imageshack.us HERE is your picture uploaded to there. I then made use of tinyurl.com to reduce the size of the address to make it easier for them to use it. - And to relay over the phone http://tinyurl.com/gwb8n That is the address that you can give them, it will redirect to your picture posted on imageshack *I reposted your picture on imageshack to reduce the use of bandwidth on the NPORA Forums server
  7. None on this side of the country.. sorry
  8. Good Luck with Calmini... Cuong and I both had good luck with Rough Country and Superlift
  9. You know after the issues with another brand I was wondering if something like this might also be the cause of the Calmini squeak that some have talked about... Is this similar to what you are seeing? aftermarket tubular Upper control arms
  10. Yep all of that can be done at home (if time & skill permits) Those are all easily combined into the process of changing the water pump Those are all basically the same and can be done together as well*If it is an auto then it will be a littler more involved* If you can change a spark plug, you can change that
  11. I think he was referring to the newer round ones... Spooler, are you sure they are aluminum? 88, didn't you weld some angle iron onto some round ones?
  12. Good pic... and as for the size, I have cable so no it was not to big
  13. ***Update*** Called them back today with the requested info, which of course was not of any help to them as the part number on the box was Rough Country's and not Superlift's. And these arms do not have the part number stamped on them as he said the Superlift branded ones do. Anyway, he authorized a return for me... just dropped them off at the UPS Store (they go out tomorrow). The arms I get back will be the Superlift versions. When I called him back I gave him tinyurl links to the images of my UCA's posted above, when he saw them there was no doubt... though he did have to go check on them because he had never seen arms of that color (I did not ask when he returned but perhaps RC coats the arms after they get them). After I was done with Superlift I called Rough Country back and let them know that Superlift agreed that there was a problem and since Rough Country had referred me to them, they issued me a return authorization directly. I also suggested that they check the arms in the next shipment that they get and gave them links to the images as well, which they eagerly took all the info on this that I had
  14. Free washes for life!!!
  15. Called Rough Country today, but since they are awaiting a shipment the tech had none that he could pull from the shelf to look at and compare. Instead he gave me SuperLifts number and had me call them. Said that if they agreed that there was a problem then he would exchange them no problem (when shipment came in and he could inspect to make sure they were not the same as mine) Called Superlift and talked to Jason, walked him through what the problem was (he pulled a set of arms to compare) and agreed that there did seem to be a problem... the ones he had were straight according to him. Since I did not have the part number he requested that I call back with it so that he could verify that Rough Country had received the proper arms and not old outdated stock (if changes had been made to their design). He gave me two options, first one was to pay for a set then send the old ones back, once received they would credit payment back to my card. Or, send my old ones back and they would send me a new set once they had the old ones. He just needed the part number so he could issue me a return authorization (that may have been a "make sure he has them for real" move... but it does not realy matter anyway). This is the option that I chose. However, I missed him by only minutes when I made it home and had the part number ready. Will call them back in the morning, and report back to you all tomorrow afternoon. FYI, I also let him know that I am not the only one with arms that are like this, so they are likely going to look into the problem :Aok
  16. $1-3K for the same reasons as B ^^^
  17. With a rubber bushing the tolerances may be more forgiving... Mr P, is this one of the places you have installed Energy Suspension Poly bushings? Was it unusually hard to install compared to the using the rubber bushings? (or did you first install the new arms with poly bushings?) Anybody who has installed new arms still have the stock units? If so, can someone check them to see if they if are the same or close to these.
