Hey guys my newly bought car is ready for driving, but there are irritating things that must be solved. If you know how to fix them/what they are or could be or where I could buy replacements and have them fitted then please please help. I AM RELYING ON YOU as my local nissan garage has said they will not service my car as it's a jap import :cry:

 

1. my rearview mirror keeps dropping. where do i get a new one?

2. there is an irritating squeaky sound that comes from the front of the car closer to the drivers side. its especially evident on bad roads but often hushes up for over several minutes. what could it be?

3. the rollup cover for the boot has a clip missing but i want to get a whole new roller and cover as the old one is very dirty and does not roll up well. where can i buy this part? how much? etc

4. there is a black round plastic screw cover missing from the driver side interior handle hole. where? how much?

5. the passenger seat interior handle plastic looks yucky? where? how much?

6. the passenger door window plastic pops out too easily. where? how much?

7. I want a coupla proper funky 300zx keys as i had on my uk car years ago. you know the rounded greyish metal ones. where? how much?

8. should i take all of the tools out the boot as they are making a racket on the bumpy roads or should i just spend the time to put them in the right places. got any photos how it should all be placed in a jap car?

9. my car had a jap sticker on the engine which said lots in japanese and "replaced 80234" I am assuming this meant the cambelt. the sticker was removed by the garage that just did my first service :mad: how do i check that the cambelt has been changed and same for the water pump. also is the water pump normally changed when the cambelt is done?

10. the speedo backplate, and this is a funny one, has the "k" in "km/h" covered by a black marker. looks cheap and awful, but has the bonus of me not wanting to look at the speedo when maybe i should :hyper: where can i get a replacement back of the main speedo dial?

 

whew. and now the less vital bits.

a) where can i get the same steel/aluminium plate for the whole speedo as Jay?

b) where can i get the same mid console aluminium frame as Jay?

c) where can i get the same handbrake handle as steve-300zx?

d) where did steve-300zx get his interior leather with piping done? how long does it take? how much? approximately? should I get it done in black or cream/magnolia on a black car? I am thinking magnolia for sure, but everyone keeps telling me it's too 80's/90's... what do you think?

e) I want to get the standard alloys to look dark grey like the standard trispokes on celica gt4's. Should I just paint them? or powder them, whatever that means, as suggested by my local garage?

f) I want to fit the 99 rear spec lights and black bit above them, but will only do so if I can get clear and then smoked grey siderepeaters, clear front indicators and also smoked side reflectors on the back end of the car. where, how much, when?

g) navan auto gearstick - will it fit my 94/lwb/auto/jap? where and how much?

 

Finally if there is anything else you recommend - I am all ears. Thanks for your time guys!
