Amayama hasn't failed me yet :P

Yet! is the key word there. :)

Bit of a thread hijack here methinks, but you haven't experienced an order from Amayama where you request a bunch of part numbers and half of them come back as no longer available? Then you aren't trying hard enough :P
 
I've only ordered from them 3 times but have made plenty of quotes where parts I am after bounce back as no longer available when being converted to orders. I usually have a habit of running part numbers through systems like Lithia's where it can tell me if a newer part number is available etc. But for some JDM only parts (decals etc.) Amayama tells you the new part number when converting to order, but can still pop up as no longer available.

I'll continue the thread jack, I've got an auto with dipstick sitting here, unfortunately I'm hanging onto it for now (whole gearbox) but I'd be happy to get full measurements for you guys if it helps? Probably find an alternative? My pathfinder only has a steel cable with measurement clamped on the end for both the box and the engine... From factory!

The measurement is 59.5cm from the bottom of the collar to the end of the dipstick (cheers again to Feral for providing this info), though I can't remember the exact placement of the notches; I still had the bottom end of mine wedged in the pan so I was able to just copy them when I used the piece of wire.
 
I don't think it's a problem hijacking the thread now. If all goes to plan, the transmission will be picked up today to be delivered to me sometime in the next week or two :)

ahh yes gearbox is sold with dipstick sorry as well as the shifter i still have some auto stuff not quite sure what parts they are but the major ones are gone.

I will add though that even though the parts are sold, any parts that I won't be holding on to, I will happily pass on to anyone that has a need for them, for the price of postage. This of course doesn't include the transmission or any part off it since I paid for it :P
 
I already have two shifter mechanisms, this will make it the third for me. I've already promised one to another Auto GZE owner but will have a spare for anyone who wants it.
