heres a GTR grille up for grabs in Yahoo Japan

http://page9.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/k14036910

30,000 YEN starting bid

looks great from the pic!

Looks like new! Reserve Not Met. Want to play a guessing game?

last time there was one similar to that started 5,000 yen and it went up to 48,000 YEN

so my guess that would come up somewhere close to that figure as well.

also you can buy it from RS Start for 43,500 YEN anyway with GTR badge as well or 33,000 YEN without

well I underestimated this auction...

so far its 70,500 YEN right now and 4 days to go

Finished at 115,000 Yen, whewwww. That's $1088 US or $1400 AU.

parts for this car are getting ridiculously expensive

I rather add that money on engine conversion/suspension for that price

Amen to that Razor! The grille of my GTR copy had been partially modified to resemble a true GTR, but still had the GTX plastic inserts instead of the expanded metal mesh. I priced an original on YahooJP....$800-$1000 Sooo...I got an idea! A $25 sheet of black expanded mesh from AutoPro, a lot of template work and photo searching later ...not exact, I've let it go higher, and the mesh is a bit finer but it will do until I source the right stuff. A helluvalot cheaper too :bandit:

Now if I can just get the correct red and white GT fender badges.....

Jim.

No worries Rob! I have to do a series of photos for Shannons Insurance as a requirement for coverage, so I'll post them in my gallery and let you know when it's done :classic:

Jim.

Great!

Thanks
