Default Hello 350z Community!

My name is Ellison and I am customer service representative at FCP Groton. Some of you may already know us from our heavy involvement in the European automotive community, particularly Volvo, BMW, Audi and VW. We have recently launched FCP Import which will help expand us to the Asian market (which we actually have been in since 1986 but didn't have a website to reflect this part of the business).

I myself am a Nissan/Infiniti enthusiast, with my current car being a 2003 G35 Coupe. In the past I have had a 95’ Maxima, an 89’ and a 92’ 240sx, and a 03’ Nissan Pathfinder. Maxima.org has been a great resource for me over the years and now I have the chance to help supply parts and tech advice to the Nissan/Infiniti family. I am not here to throw parts down your throat and spam, but here to be a good resource for info or parts. Feel free to email at ellisonc@fcpgroton.com or I am on AIM: fcpellison.



Here is the site: http://fcpimport.com

You will see some popular brands on the site already with many more to come: GMB Water Pumps and Tensioners, KYB Shocks and Struts, Royalty Drilled & Slotted Discs, Akebono ACT Ceramic Pads, Bando Drivebelts, Beck Arnley, Bosch Plugs, Flennor Timing Belts, Bosal Exhaust. You will also notice a low cost quality aftermarket line of steering, suspension, and filters that is also guaranteed for life. Feel free to let us know any other suggestions or comments you may have. We look forward to establishing a long lasting relationship within the the 350z community and once again thank you for the warm welcome!

Talking with my local Nissan Dealership even they don't have access to the part numbers to even search it. You got me on this one.

We supply aftermarket replacement parts not performance parts so group buys like the Motordyne ART pipes are not in the cards.

MarvinMartian- Very funny. I get it. Part of the initiation. I'm here to help you get what you need in the form of replacement parts.

Kudos to you for having a modicum of thicker-skin than most.

Best of luck.

My dealer looks up part numbers all the time.

......or I have to go to CourtesyParts to get a part number, and then give it to you?

The dealers only have access to North American parts. So a Euro part like that is not in the cards.

Then you fail at finding decks of cards with European spec car parts in them.
