Vancouver Nissan Dealer

Post by HuD_91gt »

Hello all,

I haven't had much luck finding a dealer which is easy to work with when trying to track down parts for the old L series.

In particular, i'm looking for flywheel bolts, rear main seal and, while I'm at it clutch cover bolts (L28). I'm sure there is some other odds and ends I still require as well. Can anyone give me a heads up on some knowledgeable folk?

Southside Nissan on Marine Drive might be able to help but the real parts guru is Glen from Westcoast Nissan in Pitt Meadows. Jim at Overseas Auto on Main Street (Weber carburetor specialist and dealer) is also a good source too.

Best of Luck!

Thanks. I was directed towards Southside once before, but I completely forgot the mans name. I want to say it was Roy, but i'm not sure. I guess i'll just give them a call anyhow and see if they can help.

Thanks guys.

I tried southside today, and asked if anyone was knowledgeable with the old Datsun's. He replied saying that guy left years ago. So I went to Glen, and he figured it all out for me. Cheers guys.

Just I case you were not told, that Datsun guy with all the knowledge that left Southside a few years ago, was Glen.

He's our star guy in the metro Vancouver area, hands down.

Glen is still at West Coast Nissan in Pitt Meadows - still the most knowledgeable Datsun parts guy out there!
