I've recently come into possession of an inherited 2003 M45
Pretty stoked! But I'm looking around at the internet scoping out parts availability and it's been quite the runaround. Coming from working on old domestics where parts are at every AdvancedZone, this is a whole new ballgame for me.I have seen a few things that I'm hoping to confirm with y'all, the experts.
1) The engine from the '03 M45 is the same as that in the Q45 F50?
2) Front suspension is largely the same components as the Q45 F50 also, except for perhaps the struts? I've had some success searching for bushings by looking at part numbers and finding *very* similar part numbers for other Nissan models, but if there's some rule of thumb here that would be awesome.
3) Rear suspension is largely the same components as the 350Z Z33? Same deal here as #2, seems many of the part numbers between schematics are damn close to identical, and I saw reference to these systems being the same on a coilover dealer's site when trying to research this. Any rule of thumb here?
Thanks so much for your time!
