I been waiting on an order from one place for little over a month and another place for over 3 months. Is Nissan just slowing production on oem parts or is back order another way for parts guys to say they're lazy and don't really care when we get our RB parts because it takes more work to get them and pulling parts out of the back room is hard enough without having to order something from Japan?

its possible that in order to keep shipping costs down they get a bunch of orders and fill them all at once,sometimes its takes a little bit to get enough orders to make it worth their while.... just a thought

Find someone in Japan.Preferably in the Army, Air force or Navy etc....Ask them really nicely to go down to the store to buy you what you need.

I waited months and months and months for a RB oil pump (years ago) then I hooked up with this dude in Japan who got it to me within a week.

Walbro pump.....????I'm sure there are 100's of shops that have those sitting on the shelf.

I would get a refund and buy it from someone else.

Check out Titan Motorsports in FL.They do Supra stuff, but they usually have them on hand.

Speaking of the devil, it arrived yesterday.

Thanks though Sil.

Yeah the only reason why I bought it from who I did was because they also had exhaust studs, that I wanted to replace.
