Throttle Body Needed

Post by Zakhil »

Hi guys,

Some unfortunate fire started in the engine compartment because of an enclosure pipe that came loose and fell onto the engine. Electrical wires burned and a whole through the throttle body sensor. Apparently the complete body needs replacement.

Anyone that maybe have a spare 2003 Y61 4.8 throttle body? If there's any information about a different solution, that'll also be super helpful, thanks!

A quick check shows that the Hitachi 16119-VC21 was used in various Nissan Patrols. The suffix (A to D) was just for internal reasons, the TB stayed the same from 1997-2007 as far as I can see.

Also sold as the Hitachi Pierburg RMB7002(A-D).

So basically a 70mm throttle body with mechanical cable activation and a resistor based throttle position sensor.

Prices are hectic. I suggest you talk to Tinus Lotz or similar. Maybe Jap Auto has some?

Zak, you should also contact David Volschenk who has a Patrol/Safari scrapyard.

His phone reception is dodgy, send him a WhatsApp @ Oh ate three - four double nine - 1588.

Thanks Jakes, that's some really helpful info. Will have a look if I can find something like that.

Christo! Not everyday I connect with BCX guys on here, hope all good! Did contact David and he has one for R10k. In that case I'd rather go for PartSouq with R12k new body.

IT isn't what it was 20 years ago. It's a cut-throat industry now with very little honour and loyalty.
