Parts Catalog and OEM Gasket Part Numbers

[Muzez]

Hi Guys! Where is the best place to search for OEM part numbers?

I used to do this on the Nissan site or carpartsmanual.com, but Nissan's website dropped all of the S30 models and carpartsmanual doesn't seem to have the actual numbers. I am trying to figure out the OEM gaskets for the 1977 L28.

I'm not sure what you mean by Carpartsmanual.com not having the actual part numbers. I tried the numbers listed at CourtesyParts.com, and they came back as NLA.

I double checked with the parts CD that @Mike used to sell on this site. The text isn't very clear, but it looks like the dates shown on CarPartsManual.com are not correct.

You know we should probably have a copy of the parts reference numbers on this site. If carpartsmanuals closes their servers I think we would all be upset.

Not those of us who supported the site way back when and bought the CD of the parts catalog. 😉

I also have a paper copy...just in case.

Ditto - purchased 09/1999 for $24.95 plus $5 shipping from Rex Jennet in CA.

This may help, it'd the parts numbers of all the gaskets in the factory kit for the 240Z.
