This Original Equipment Manufacturer part is the same part that was made & installed by the car manufacturer at the factory where the car was produced.
OE Replacement - Reman
The original starter for this application used an 8-tooth starter drive gear. Nissan has superseded this starter to a later version which uses a drive gear with a higher tooth count. The performance of the later design starter exceeds the performance of the original version. Our starters are all equivalent to the later design starter.
