>Errol, thanks for the lend of the competition preparation reference

>of course make it available if necessary to others.
>I sent it all via express post on Thursday so you should get it by Monday
>at the latest. I have also included a few pictures of Stanza rally cars
>from a book on the history of Rallying - Just to prove how good they were
>against the Escorts etc..
>I have contacted my local Nissan dealership with the hope of getting
>new-old stock, i.e stuff that has been sitting on a shelf somewhere since
>the 80's, on the assumption that suitable parts aren't still in production.
>As a result of my inquiries;
>1. The NISMO part numbers in the 1985 catalogue are no longer valid.
>2. Nissan does not carry NISMO parts - NISMO is a separate company with a
>separate part numbering scheme, and Nissan have apparantly had difficulties
>before and so will only get parts in as ordered with no refunds.
>3. Nissan will charge me $98.00 air freight/customs + $20.00 per Kilogram
>to import NISMO (or any non-production spec.) parts.
>4. The current NISMO catalogue will cost >$100, however they are going to
>get one themselves in about a week and will allow people to use it but not
>take it off the premises.
>5. There is a partial NISMO 'scanned' catalogue on the web, search through
>the Bluebirds mailing list to find it.
>6. I cannot fully comprehend the Japanese NISMO
>http://www.nismo.co.jp/contents.html site as I don't understand Japanese -
>neither does my browser.
