I think the rubber damper or mount is 54050. And the top cap is 54320. At least these are what they look like when I got it from the stockist.  The total I paid was about $183 for a pair of rubber and top cap, since they said must change is pair..

By the way, please also confirm if your shock absorber needs changing or not.  I only got the rubber damper and top cap, but when the mechanic removed the shock absorber, he showed me its leaking. Adding on the absorber is expensive with the workshop. If I known should have gotten the absorber outside...

TC had sesonal campaign whereby they only charge $560 to change all 4 (2 front and rear) shock and suspension assembly for $560.
They provide 1 year or 20000km warranty.

Good pricing... mine change to KYB cost abt 1.1k... but i change lower arm and ruber mounting at the same time.. original nissan is abit soft, furthermore now most made in Thailand.

I bought KGB shocks front and rear for 420 at yuen thong N change in autosaver for 150. Didn't change bracket because autosaver says my bracket still ok.
If not u can try asking at autosaver how much to change + alignment, they will charge cheaper workmanship.

Honestly if u ask me now, save the money . I don't feel the new shocks made a lot of difference - stilal bumpy... Ps I changed mine at 50k

Not sure if anyone can help..

1. Im intending to buy KYB and the original nissan 54325, 54050 and 54320. Will it be compatible?
2. Thinking of getting KYB online from US.. anyone tried or any comments appreciated.
3. Is 54320 just a metal piece? Will it crack? From what I can observe for my ride, only 54325 and 54050 cracked.
