My car has been for it's annual inspection, and it did not pass, it failed on the left front upper control arm.
There is a little play on the ball joint, not much, but it needs to be replaced.
I am allowed to drive the car until April 13, so i have some time left to fix it, and pass inspection.

Long story short, i need a new left front upper control arm, or a new ball joint.
They are very hard to find in Europe, maybe at the dealer, but that is my last option.

Does anybody know if there is a difference between 370Z/ G35 V36 coupe, and the G35X V36 Sedan version?
They look the same, but parts numbers are differend.
If anyone knows parts numbers for the control arm, or for just the ball joint, OEM or aftermarket, please let me know.

I already found one number, KAVO SCA-6660, but that is the one fot the 370Z, and i am not certain it fits yet.

If i can't find the part in Europe , it is possible to import it from US, but this is going to take at least 4 weeks, and i probately have to pay import duty

On a brighter note, they are very easy to change, once you get the part, how's the other side? The UCA and ball joint are one complete unit.

Picked it up from local post office yesterday
