Hello all, I'm new to the forum and I just wanted to do a formal introduction.

My Name is Aris. I am stationed in Japan been here for about 3 years. I drive a 1993 Toyota Soarer 1JZGTE Twin turbo. I just recently shipped my 1992 Lexus SC300 over here from Guam with plans to do a 2JZGTE Aristo swap. It seemed practical to ship the car here instead of waiting til I get back home cause I have access to all the resources here in Japan.

I used to be a big Nissan Guy until I met Takahiro Ueno 2yrs ago and seen him in action at Ebisu Circut with his Vertex Soarer. The next day I sold my Nissan 180SX and bought a Toyota Soarer.

 

lucky you...you can be our outlet in getting us some of those nice bodykits over there could be a profitable hustle for you.... think about it... are you in the Navy?

 

Im in the Air Force....Nah, with all the copycat companies in the states theres no reason to ship body kits back. Unless you got people who truely want the real deal kits that fit like a glove and are willing to pay top dollars for it. The real Vertex kit for an SC made by T&E cost about 600.00 for the front 400.00 for the sides and 550.00 for the rear. BN Blister kit will run around 2500.00. The prices here are not that cheap as most people think they are but they are available.

 

welcome to CL... and since your in japan can't you get something that is cheaper then here??? and i know that you have more choice or parts there then here...

 

I can get alot of cheap parts here, I was just referring to Body Kits. There are tons of New and Used parts everywhere here.

 

coool!!! welcome to the club!

 

Thanks for the hospitality!!

 

Welcome to CL Aris! I've heard japan is awesome. I'm leaving for basic training in october. Got any tips?

 

so youve met the SC god (UENO) eh? man how crazy! how much can you get a NARDI deep dish black with red stitching 350mm for?

 

Don't take anything personel. Its a mind game and they will try to break you. Just remember its only for a couple weeks and try to have fun.

Good luck. With that, you shouldnt have any problems

 

cut your hair..and start jogging.... and do some push ups.., break up with your girlfriend... unless you are pretty strong... you don't need any distractions...

 

HAHA! great tip actually...less distraction...the better you will be and get in shape.




This the Nardi you talking about. The original price on these new is 36,750YEN that is about 350.00 US Dollars. I can get these from my source for 250.00
