On my "new" skyline, the half shaft boot is bad. When i changed the wheels i noticed grease everywhere..Is this boot replacable, or should i just replace the entire half shaft on the left side?

It seems like the grease has been out of there for a while so im scared, what could be damaged if its been bad for say..6 months?

if the grease is gone, the joint is probably shot. i would replace the whole shaft. you're in japan, it shouldn't be that hard to find a used one for cheap. they don't really wear out as long as the boots are good.
