Zup Posted October 18, 2015 Share #1 Posted October 18, 2015 Sad and bad news folks if this is the case! The bookmark I have used for years no longer works the way it used to for www.Courtesyparts.com -- The website has changed and no longer has a tab for the 240/280/280zx. These cars are not even mentioned. Model years now only go back to 1984. Parts still show up when you search, but now it seems you will have to have the part number for even minor replacement parts like wipers and oil filters. Seems as though one our oldest friends is leaving us. Someone tell me this is just a bad dream I am having--- Jim D. "Zup" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveJ Posted October 18, 2015 Share #3 Posted October 18, 2015 If you need the part numbers, just buy the parts fiche CD from this site. There is also CarPartsManual.com. What concerns me is that parts that I believe are NLA are still showing up as available when I search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Head Posted October 18, 2015 Share #4 Posted October 18, 2015 If Courtesy decided to remove even the weak references to the older cars from their site it's probably just a matter of time until they remove all support from the company. Search "280ZX" on their new site and it's not even recognized. Send Courtesy an email. If you've been brand loyal to Nissan, make that point. Tell them that you want full-service not just easy money service. Since they're in the middle of change it might not be too late to get better service instead of worse. customerservice@courtesyparts.com Where's Mike? Is Courtesy a sponsor?

Zed Head Posted October 18, 2015 Share #5 Posted October 18, 2015 Forgot to say - be courteous if you send a message. Business is business but maybe they can roll things back a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfa.series1 Posted October 18, 2015 Share #6 Posted October 18, 2015 Lets not be so quick to throw Courtesy under the bus. Perhaps the number of page hits on those sub-topics has declined to the point of no longer being supportable. They have always been a great supporter of all generations of Z cars; David and Butch have always been responsive in looking for parts for the older cars.

Zealous Posted October 18, 2015 Share #7 Posted October 18, 2015 I just got a part shipment from them a few weeks ago. They are still supporting the S30. They even went to lengths to call around for some Nissan Comp parts and found some OEM parts they had as NLA but were available from other dealers in the country. I have found when calling them they are more than helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
