Nismo Bearings.. Where To Get?

[bubba]

Apparently Nissan dealers no longer sell Nismo, anyone know where else to get Nismo bearings from?

[ahh 33 s2]

nengun or greenline? ive read some where that acl make nismo bearings any way.. dont quote me on that

[bubba]

Umm I reckon ACL make ACL bearings, cheers anyway but was more looking for someone local selling them

Theres Nismo shop 10mins from me if you need something I dont mind sussing but would have to send from Japan.

Try XSpeed. They had some on the shelf when I was down there last.

clevite in the states used to make Nismo stock...wouldn't surprise me at all if ACL are now producing them for Nismo.

Some silly people think that Nismo have a factory that produces all their items...lol. Just like HKS also have a similar factory that produces all their items. Most of the production is outsourced to save tooling up on specialist items...makes perfect business sense.

OS Giken 3 litre crankshafts are actually made in Australia, but due to contractural agreement you cannot buy them here.

Nothing wrong with ACL stuff...mine see's over 1000hp crank...Mark's engine sees 1500hp crank...both use off the shelf ACL's.

Tell me about it...

Getting stuff here in japan is by no means just walking in the door and asking the monkey at the counter!!

Always have to order and the wait can be months!!

I've learned not to bang my head against brick walls anymore..it hurts too much

Sometimes you get suprised but!
