My Original Post:
I have yet to find a Nissan site online that I can search through and order any part I want even the small stuff like nuts and bolts. Most of the sites I find only let you order the big items. Anyone have any good sites?

[codunc]

I've always had good luck with courtesy. I've never needed anything they didn't have and they always ship quickly. As far as i can tell they do have everything listed.

[SlideWell]

Really, why would u expect nuts and bolts to be listed. Those are pennies to dealerships. Go to your local dealership and order from a quality, fast and great service place like west covina nissan. If all nus and bolts were listed on a site, it would be crazy to go throug and set up. That what dealerships use and it takes quite a while for them just to look it up. Know the part number yourself, find it at the best place.

[jspecusa]

I always buy from ray at westco nissan mynismoshop.com
he's friendly, in the community, and willing to take care of you not like other dealers.
sometime it's not the $20 difference that matters.

[KeithDigital]

Well my other car is a Honda, and I have 3 Honda websites that list every single part made so I am use to it. Why do I need the small nuts and bolts? Well my car is missing a bolt here and there from the previous owners who didn't put stuff back together correctly or replacing a rusty bolt. My local dealership sucks, most of the time they don't have the part in stock and they make me come in to pre-pay, then come back when the part is in. And I have to pay full price+tax. I want to order it myself by looking at a diagram so there is no confusion and have the parts delivered to my house and at 25% less then my local dealership :)

Just go down to your local Nissan shop and buy them beer or drinks.
Usually they would have nut and bolt boxes laying around so you can pick the ones you want.
For example, I have 4 boxes.
1. interior 2. engine bay 3. suspension/brake 4. special(sr and rb).
all taken from front clips,rear subframe, and engines we worked on.

Seriously anything not listed on the website, call ray, don't waste his time if you're not going to buy. But he can get you the shit you need no problemo. Walked right in and got new pressure plate bolts and flywheel bolts no problem no waiting for my sr20.

[Flybert]

I always buy stuff from Ray at West Covina Nissan.

Their website is The Nismo Shop :: West Covina Nissan (http://www.thenismoshop.com)

[bl3ujay07]

west covina nisan, the nismo shop FTW. By far the best place for nissan parts for the least expensive price.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

I've always used Courtestparts. I love it.

[s13pignose]

Dealt with courtesy, west covina, and performance nissan (MyNismo.com)

all had what I need at the point in the time. No problems

[blackrms13]

+1 on West Covina Nissan
next up is Performance Nissan

but they are both local to me, so i usually just do local pick up....

[Dousan_PG]

westco nissan almost always
i live and work near tustin nissan so when i need ka/stock parts (non sr) ill go there for ease
they hook me up ive been going there for years

but anything SR related or big items, always go thru westco nissan when justin was there, and now ray is there!

can i pick up locally to avoid shipping cost? and if so, do you think it applies to everything, such as jdm bumpers?

[ronmcdon]

I agree with consensus.
there really are just a few key merchants when it comes to OEM parts.
Courtesy & Performance Nissan are the two that I've used with good experience.

Earlier this year, I was looking for a new Z32 manual tranny.
Performance Nissan had the best deal.
Thank goodness they're somewhat local.

Haven't bought anything from Westco, but they've been helpful and friendly on the phone.

[enkei2k]

Russell at NissanParts.cc has my vote. A quick PM to him here and he's on it for you. Check out his advertisers specials and stuff like that.
I've used Courtesy parts in the beginning when I first got my car, but the shipping rate kills you. WestCo is good, no problems for me.

Great to work with.

I have yet to find a Nissan site online that I can search through and order any part I want even the small stuff like nuts and bolts. Most of the sites I find only let you order the big items. Anyone have any good sites?

These are the ones I have found and my opinions:

Nissan Parts Online - Nissan Auto Parts - Online Parts Catalog (http://www.trademotion.com/partlocator/index.cfm?siteid=214459)
Horrible website, no nuts and bolts parts listed. No phone number either.
Discount: 25-28%

Nissan Parts, NISMO and Nissan Accessories - Courtesyparts.com (http://www.courtesyparts.com)
Awesome website, easy to use and has most parts listed - but definitely not everything. No Phone number.
Discount: 13-16%

https://www.everythingnissan.com/
Horrible website, no nuts and bolts parts listed. Have a 1-866-464-5727 number to order everything
Discount: 25%
I have ordered from them before, I ordered about 15 parts and one of them was not in stock, and they didn't even bother to tell me until I called to find out why 3 weeks later I hadn't received any parts yet... Not a happy customer.

Phone number for courtesyparts
Nissan Parts, NISMO and Nissan Accessories - Courtesyparts.com :: Contact Information: Courtesy Nissan of Richardson, Texas. (http://courtesyparts.com/contact_us.php)

I actually called them a couple of times for parts that they didn't list at the time (S14 clutch pedal and the bracket). They just put it on the same order with the other parts and shipped everything together. If you are local, you can order parts online and pick it yourself if you prefer that. They are really easy guys to deal with.

[blackrms13]

just print out their online price, and go to the dealer and buy it, no shipping fee, and online price too
thats what i did with my nismo motor mounts

as far as bumper maybe call them ahead to see if they have the parts in stock?

im referring to WestCo

I always deal with Nissan Parts, NISMO and Nissan Accessories - Courtesyparts.com (http://www.courtesyparts.com). Seeing as you're from FL, you'll have your parts quicker than if you ordered them from some west coast dealership/shop. (CP is in TX)

[KeithDigital]

Redid the first post with everyone's inputs. Good list of places to buy parts now!

[adictd2b00st]

I've deal with West Covina and Courtesy each on multiple occassions without any issues, always great prices and customer service!

[projectRDM]

I always buy from a local dealer, same prices if not lower than anywhere online, no shipping charges (which adds up on big parts), 2 day turnaround on virtually anything unless it's backordered. Any dealer can order special parts, they just have to want to.

I'm sure the online shops are easier to use for a newb, but if you have a parts book or know the part number, your local dealer is way easier. I would always send an email with a list of numbers, show up two days later to pick up, and pay. None of this calling back and forth, trying to get the one certain guy who's the specialist, waiting for a confirmation email, and then waiting a week for parts to show up at a higher total price than if you had just picked it up yourself.

So your local dealership gives you like 30% off ? I have yet to find a local dealership in Orlando to give any discounts (Nissan, Honda, Toyota, etc). Enjoy it man because it's not like that everwhere.

You can't just walk off the street and get a huge break, no. But all dealerships have wholesale accounts with other dealers, bodyshops, repair shops, etc. If you buy enough, or show the desire to buy, most dealers will give you a discount, some even will set you up on your own account. If you're buying a bolt a month, no. But if you're buying parts at a regular rate and you've shown you can buy them online too at discounts, why wouldn't they match it? The end result is who gets paid, them or someone else. The smaller dealers that don't stock anything don't always work with you, but it's at their discretion to charge whatever they want, as long as there's a profit. Cutting 30% on $1000 is still better than 10% on $100.

I used to buy from Courtesy, but they've managed to make some ridiculous screw-ups when dealing with me. The worst being when I ordered $200+ worth of parts and waited two weeks, only to call them and find out that the parts were discontinued.

They basically sat on my money and didn't bother to call when they figured out they couldn't get it.

Other screw-ups from them include sending me a coolant temperature sender when I asked for an intake air temperature sensor, and failing twice to properly package a plastic part, breaking it during shipping.

Twice they shipped that plastic part in a UPS flat-rate box which it didn't actually even fit in. After the first time I called and asked for a replacement and told them to ship it in a better box. After the second time I called them and they said "We're just going to refund your money". I gave their manager an earful and finally got the part.

Now I pretty much only buy from West Covina.

Sorry to hear that. It also depends on who you talk to. If anyone orders from Courtesy, ask for Jacob. He's very well organized. At one point, everyone working at Courtesy owned 240s(s13s & s14s), but now no one owns it. People quit and bought other cars.
