Unlike home appliances, it does not determine the supply period! How long will the supply of pure spare parts of old cars be carried out "after the end of sales"?

The time limit for keeping the parts is "no"! But.

Nissan GT-R (R32)

　The life of the car has been extended. According to the Automobile Inspection and Registration Information Association, the average service life of passenger cars (excluding light vehicles) at the end of March was 13.51 years, an increase for five consecutive years, the highest in history. Led by the second-generation skyline GT-R, domestic sports cars such as FD3S rose in popularity in the 1990s. The price of used cars is soaring. [photo] the spiral part of NISMO! In such cases, the concern is the supply period of pure maintenance parts. In the case of household appliances, there is also the guidance of the Ministry of economy, Trade and Industry to announce the retention period of the parts and components needed to maintain the function of the products. what is the situation of cars? It is generally said that 10 years after the end of car body production is the standard? In fact, the car manufacturer is responsible for the supply period of car maintenance parts. The Automobile Section of the Ministry of economy, Trade and Industry, "are there any rules and guidelines for the shelf life of performance parts for automobile maintenance?"there is no such thing" when asked. When will parts of the Q car be available on Toyota's home page? We are trying to supply parts for as long as possible, but the supply has not been uniform for several years. Although it is only standard, if the parts are installed in the factory, the production of the car will be over for about 10 years. However, depending on the parts, there are also shorter ones. In addition, with regard to the parts for the installation option of the sales store, the manufacture of the parts will be stopped after the production of the car, so only the inventory of the Toyota sales store.

It is possible to maintain the popularity of the 1990s sports car.

マツダRX-7（FD3S&FC3S）

　The second generation of skyline GT-R manufacturing abolished genuine maintenance parts, NISMO helicopter parts and resupply efforts began in the case of Nissan, authentic parts of the maintenance parts of the vehicle after the production of a certain period of time, not out of the warehouse of things in turn manufacturing scrapped. In addition, the situation selected by dealers is "car body discontinued for 3 years as the standard". Therefore, the current situation is that the supply period of pure maintenance parts varies greatly among different manufacturers and even different models. Hearing the sound of car shops, even old cars are easier to get parts from Nissan, Mazda, Suzuki and so on. As mentioned above, Nissan starts supplying parts in the form of NISMO spiral parts (if pure parts are transferred to spiral parts, the price will become higher. ), based on the resale of NA Road Star's Lestra parts, Mazda began to supply FC3S and FD3S replica parts under the name "CLASSIC MAZDA". Even if it is not dependent on the pirated parts, in the case of FD3S, it is now possible to supply 50% to 70% of the components needed for daily maintenance. On the other hand, there are a lot of parts that have been abolished, and it is Honda that is bothering them. However, the first generation of NSX exceptionally carried out a rich supply of parts, and beat also introduced pirated parts. In terms of parts, the high supply rate is the relationship between general parts, engine, task and chassis. It is easy to abolish manufacturing, but it is an interior relationship anyway. Then, it is connected with the electrical parts and the external parts. Even if they become manufactured obsolete in manufacturers, popular types of vehicles, such as pure replacement parts, sometimes appear in external products, such as electrical equipment and drive shafts, such as starters and alternators, "recycled (recycled) because parts" are in circulation, so using them is also a means. There is news of price revision and cancellation of pure parts every spring and autumn, so owners of old cars had better take specialty stores with strong focus on their models as attending doctors, make maintenance plans and ask them to inform them of the supply of spare parts.
