Found a good Infiniti dealer in the USA who ships international.

Sewell Infiniti in Texas.

Just ordered and OEM Front plate bracket (USD $90.40) as my local Nissan Dealer can't get it.

Just thought I should let you know for those trying to source parts from the US.

Used them before and would use them again - Josh there was very helpful. One of the items I ordered from Sewell was a replacement in-cabin filter and it arrived crushed because they packed it loose amongst other items (stupid). They shipped over a replacement (in a box this time) at no cost to me - it was no fuss.

I rang a random Infiniti dealer and asked if they shipped to aus and they said to call sewell Infiniti and I rand them and the guy was very helpful, knew his product and willing to ship to Aus.

How long did the part take to arrive from the US? Because I ordered a plate bracket? Shouldn't take that long should it.

Also I will try that other dealer recommended!

Can someone post links to these guys?

Have you tried your local Nissan dealer Paul? Some don't want to know you, but others are very helpful.

I tried to get the steering wheel controls for your cruise control from Riverside. Found them very slow to respond & price was no cheaper than my local Nissan spare parts but when shipping was added they were heaps dearer. Now I buy everything locally & constantly amazed at how quickly the most obscure parts will turn up - often the next day.

My local Nissan dealer said they can only get mechanical and things that the V35 and 350Z share in common.

Sorry to say they are an example of one that isn't interested in helping out.

It's a silly stand to for them make since all they do is put a part number into the computer, tell you how much it will be & then order it in if you agree on the price. I'm sure they make the same margins on the V35 specific parts as they would on the 350Z ones.

Any others in nearby suburbs or towns?

It arrived and it's on. Arrived before the 5-7day quoted time.

Fits well and looks much nicer that having to bend both edges of your plates to fit it in the gap.

Even if Nissan aust could get it I don't think it would have come quicker than what I got mine from the US

    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
    • Ok...its taking me long enough to finally do this.  Feck financial security...heart disease will get me soon enough anyway So welcome to the garage..."Clem" Belsil80 has been running a 370Z in Super TT series. So after entering with him in last years Winton 300 i figured I  need my own car. Seems SAU Vic race cars need to be yellow....{tick} Reckon with enough motor i will be able to make up for the lack of talent and stay ahead of the 370Z... but the LS powered S13 and E36s are a ways up the road Aim is to have a car that doesnt stop or turn but has a bit of shed built motor with jam...maybe some cream  First step is getting this ex drift car log booked I am keeping faithful silver car. As the road-club car gets upgrades the race car wil get the sloppy seconds
    • Assuming that they will come off without damage at all.... i would have thought just pull straight up off the spindle with a something or other than can reach underneath. Have you searched for youtube vids of people doing similar on R34s or any other Nissan from the same vintage? They should be the same technique, in all likelihhood.
    • Keeping in mind that sandblasting is really aggressive on softer metals like cast alloy, and you can do damage that you might regret. For trash wheels, not a problem. For wheels with value/scarcity issues, etc.... perhaps a less aggressive media is a better choice?
    • Don't get all high and mighty. Experienced spanner wielders know exactly what effort is required to release an Oof.
