I'm looking to replace my strut's, both sides. I've been searching and haven't found any aftermarket applications for our cars yet. I'd love to get coil over's, just can't afford them right now plus I've only had my prokit for a few months.
Anyway, has anyone seen any aftermarket strut's? And if not, what would be the best place to buy nissan part's online?

Thanks for any help guys

As far as I know there arent any aftermarket applications for the AC. I havent searched in quite a while though. You could try and compare part numbers on the site above and see if Sedan parts will fit, note sure to be honest.

As long as the "RH" in "STRUT KIT-FRONT SUSPENSION,RH" doesn't mean "right-hand" or something, then that's really cheap. That price is for fronts only though (or maybe front right only)

RH does mean right hand, but the LH is the same price. So $244.84 for both front struts.
Rear suspension does not have struts, it has shocks and they are $76.40 each so $152.80 total.

OP only mentioned struts so I assumed he only wanted struts.
Not trying to be a nitpicky bastard, just in work mode at the moment...because Im at work.

Thanks guys. I appreciate the info. That's not a bad price. That's prob the route I'll go, like I said I'd love to get coil overs but I'm not ready to drop a grand on them. Wish we had some aftermarkets to choose from.

Thanks again!

There's aftermarket "rear" shocks as I recall but I can't remember who makes them.

KYB makes aftermarket struts and shocks for 4G sedans and 1G coupes. Pricing seems to be around 110 & 60 per side.

KYB sells them I think. But I would go with these ;http://selexsuspension.com/index.php?pa ... s&idPart=1 . They can make them for your car. I'm going to get their coilovers when I have the cash
