Also, although my Stillen parts have been delivered, my s-tune front end still has not arrived and it was ordered about 3 weeks ago. I requested that it be ordered from the US from a place that has them in stock instead of ordering directly from Japan out of fear of a back order. Now I think the place that it was ordered from in the US had a back order too!! I am just praying that they didn't order the part from Japan! worst luck!

If the part was ordered from Japan, does anyone know how long it takes for Nismo to deliver?

Ya the reason for that is because although i ordered it in March, there was no allocation for march or april due to the Japan crisis. So Nissan didn't process my order until May, which means that our orders were placed at around the same time.
