March 13, 201113 yr comment_349116 Amazing seeing all of those parts in one place brand new like that. Absolutely incredible.If you're selling, I'm guessing you're only looking to sell it as a complete kit? Or would you be willing to sell individual pieces?Best of luck though, that is beautiful work.

Most of the items have been reproduced by several Japanese companies. I do not know if it is worth making another ones here......Most reproduction parrs that are made in Japan are much better quality in general. Just a thought.......

March 15, 201113 yr comment_349303 Just to vouch for these parts, as I think they deserve it:Some of you may be aware that I own two genuine factory-built 'HS30-H' Fairlady 240ZG cars, and have had a deep interest in this particular model for a number of years. Don't want to blow my own trumpet, but I think I know what I'm talking about.I travelled to Rahail's home a few weeks ago ( I was buying some other parts from him ) and I looked closely at these parts - which he is now selling - so I have seen them first-hand. Most of them are genuine Nissan factory parts ( made by Kotobuki for Nissan.... ) and the lower nose - the largest part in the 'kit' - appears to be a superbly made replica, at least the equivalent standard to the genuine Nissan ( Kotobuki ) part. In fact, I believe it is an early example of Marguen Shokai's fine work.There are many cheaper so-called 'replicas' of the OEM parts on sale in Japan, but in most cases they are not the equal of the OEM parts in quality, fit or finish - let alone the rather more subjective matter of 'feel' The parts that Rahail has gathered however are excellent, and I will vouch for them ( and for Rahail himself ). I could not say that for the vast majority of 'ZG' copy parts that I have seen in the past.Hope that might help to reassure anyone who was thinking seriously about these parts. Cheers,Alan T.

March 16, 201113 yr comment_349412 Alan, it might be worth getting them your self for your ZG, god forbid something ever happens, but just in case.I already have a fair stock of ZG-specific spares, thanks. However, if Rahail splits the 'kit' and has any parts left over then I may very well pounce. Cheers,Alan T.
