Hi, am new here and I own a Nissan Xterra 2000 XE,6Cyl 3.3L; model and her main electrical distributor is no longer functional.

Since Nissan has discontinued the Xterra series, only accessories and other mechanical parts are being sold here, but Nissan Philippines no longer sells electrical parts for the Xterra here and they told me that the main plant in Japan has stopped shipping Xterra parts in the Philippines.

So that leaves me to buy online and after searching the net, I came across this site and called the operators and the operator told me that the part is available and is ready for shipping per order and purchase. It will be my first time buying parts online as early on the 2k decade, Xterra parts were plenty here, but not anymore as Nissan has shelved the Xterra series here in the Philippines.



It is a after-market Distributor which is manufactured by Replacement Parts Inc. Here are the specs:





Anyone familiar with the manufacturer? Should I buy this after=market part or should I still find original Nissan parts despite the odds?

Also, will the product catalog really be applicable to my Xterra 2000 XE?

Thanks for all future info and suggestions.

Hi Patrick,

If I were you, I would go to a site that sells remanufactured Nissan parts online. Those parts should really be a good fit and you are guaranteed that things like the gear on the bottom will fit correctly.

Just my opinion but that is what I would recommend.

I agree.

I had to do some distributor swaps on a few rigs, and the aftermarket ones had too many either "dead in the box" (Never worked..), or DSAA (Dead Shortly After Arrival).

Try to find Nissan and/or Re-manufactured Nissan units to have a better chance of the replacement NOT stranding you later, etc.

Hi Patrick,

I totally agree with TJ... Almost most of the aftermarket parts will never work! Unless you buy those stuffs from the authorized dealers!

I would suggest you to buy original new Nissan Parts instead of old one! I would recommend you can visit Titan Motor Group Website, their you can find compete genuine nissan parts catalog.
