Willem

I am replacing the front engine mounts including pads of the GQ.

Have sourced the mountings aftermarket but am told that the pads are only available OEM from Nissan.

Would anyone know of aftermarket suppliers for the pads?

Cheers

G,day Willem,
Could you get them from a Sprint Auto Parts or Supercrap store or similar in Adelaide?

Don't know if you have tried them places or not but usually if I ask Sprints for something and they don't have have it I ask them where I could find it, they can usually put me on the right track

Have fun looking

Cheers Luke

Roodogspares is not far from you Willem, just down the road in Murray Bridge.

I have bought filters etc from there, find them very competitive with prompt post.

Not sure what the pad you refer to is Mr... the mount comes complete bolt on as one piece...

Obviously you dont mean brake pads like most think your refering to - correct?

photo or more info?

My garage bloke was in the Big Smoke a coupla days ago and obtained the 2 mounts as pictured in the manual. After market parts which I think he got from REPCO at $60 each. The pads(engine mount pads) however were not included which I found strange as it is a bolt on job. They referred garage bloke to genuine Nissan parts for the pads
