I "think" I've found someone who may can help.

Edit - For those interested, be looking over what you would like info/pricing on and post here in this thread. I hope to move this thing forward by the first of next week.

I might be interested in just the shift ****. I think the steering wheel might be a bit much.

I got an email back from them, but I couldn't quite make out what they were trying to say:

Here is my original email to them at end of April:
I am writing from Los Angeles in U.S. I would like to purchase the Nissan Brand 350Z EUR side brake. Please let me know if it is possible to ship it to me in the U.S.

Here is their reply:
Thank you very much for mail.
I'm sorry that the answer slows.
It was not possible to visit LA in April and May.
The schedule for the future is still undecided.

Parts are supplied from Japan to MSA.
http://www.thezstore.com/

Please inquire of here.
Charge and the address are written.

Thank you.

It seems like Hiro is saying that they will not ship to the U.S. and wants me to buy their parts through motosportauto.com here in Cali. What do you guys think???

That explains why the Z store is carrying the rear fog lamp kit.

That burnt Orange color looks good in the interior of an SS ZR - Do you all think so ?

I am thinking of going with that color for my interior to add a lil life to it. Do you all think this is a good ideal.

I would need the seats also - it would be nice to two tone it all the way (shift ***, steering wheel, seat & ebrake).

Thanks for any advice! Oh so as not to **** off the one who started this thread PM me.

True, but Datsun Freeway were the only online vendors that had it (that I know of). I only assume that if Datsun Freeway is referring customers to MSA for the Euro spec orange leather parts, that MSA got the rear fogs from there as well. I did price some parts that Datsun Freeway sells (Euro spec) with a member here that gets dealer cost in Europe, and the prices were higher than Datsun Freeway.

I'll keep everyone informed when I receive a reply.

Got a reply back from Michael:

Hello, thanks for the email, We have been doing business with Datsun-Freeway
for about 15 years. And we are generally the US distributer for their
products, What exactly where you interested in?
Michael.
I've replied with a link to everything people have shown interest to in this thread. If you have any interest in something other than what's been listed in this thread, post it up and I'll find out. I inquired about pricing, shipping costs and time, and possibly setting up a GB.

I'll let you know.

Buzzard, thanks for all your efforts. I think once you get a list of prices for the Euro spec and Datsun-Freeway brand burnt orange steering wheel, handbrake, and shift *****, people can better decide which parts they need. Thank you again. We are finally getting somewhere!!

I linked him to all your links in your first post here and a couple of other things. I inquired about a GB as well.

I'll keep everyone informed, he was VERY prompt with the first email. I'm sure it may take him some time to get me another email with pricing. I have to leave the office in about an hour and won't be back online tonight. If I don't hear anything by the time I leave, I'll give everyone an update in the morning.

IF ANYONE HAS ANY OTHER PRODUCTS THAN THOSE LISTED, PLEASE POST THEM, SO I CAN GET PRICING. THE FOLLOWING ARE THE LINKS I POSTED IN MY EMAIL:

Ebrake Handle

Steering Wheel

Shift ****

DF Steering Wheel

DF 2 Tone Shift *****


Here is the link to all their products:

Complete Product List


I also inquired about the possibility of getting any of these BO products in smooth leather(no perforations), mainly for my benefit. This is how I'd like to see mine, I didn't know if anyone else cared.

I'll let you know.
