Bonnet Strut Part Numbers

[SSStagea]

Anyone know the Nissan Part Numbers for the Bonnet Struts on a Series 2 RS Four S. My local Nissan spare parts doesn't even register the Stagea. I have tried giving them the part numbers that I can find on the current bonnet struts but they come up with nothing. My bonnet will not stay up by itself now, so I am in need of either regassing these struts or buying new.

Thanks

David

must be a s thing mine just started droping. let us no what there worth?

best to get them re-gassed, dont think the stagea ones are still available, search back, i think maxima ones also fit, covered a few times.

my boss's mate makes struts... I could go around there and see what they would cost to make? I'd say regass them would be better option though.

yeah i used maxima ones from my local strut guy. about $30ea from memory. Nissan is 150+ per side....

They appear to be both the same Stooge, '94 ~ 99 (A32) series.

You could do what I did;

Drive to Strut fitting place, find service guy, have cup of coffee, pay money (maybe $80) & leave. The struts I was sold were Maxima jobs according to my man.

I posted the part numbers here somewhere a few years ago admittedly but can't find post now. (See sig., it's a personal problem )

The service guy will run a tape measure over the originals for length of stroke & read off/work out the newton metres force (gas charge x piston D/d or something), swap over the original clips & you are done. That's for the fronts, bonnet. The boot lid struts were more of a challenge, I had to get them from Sons of Nippon.

Or maybe;

The nice Strut Specialist service guy might just ID your original struts for you so you can go buy them somewhere else cheaper?

No need to replace them, mobile regassing guys can just regas what you have already.

I bought some maxi ones from ebay last week these ones:

fitted perfectly and work perfectly almost identical except for the plastic casings on the end.

sweet, thanks for that

might grab those ones, as it looks like they have the metal ends on them, whereas the others i listed above don't

I needed to get the Cima boot redone this morning so I got a mobile guy out to regas them.

He quoted $99 front or rear to replace or regas the stagea ones as well.

So if you need fronts, go to ebay, if you need rears in Sydney
