bro,
seriously, can't the local bodyshops there fabricate the sideskirts, front bumper and the wing?
i mean i think its a pretty simple wing (similar to the evo3) and the skirt is less complicated to make than the erebuni sideskirts.
is it a good idea to have someone fabricate these than having the orig ones shipped from japan, australia or new zealand?
over here, you could just ask a shop to fabricate/ copy an original kit using fiberglass. maybe its easy here because labor is cheap.

Yeah I guess you robably could get something close, but since there would be no original to go off of it wouldn't be exact. Besides I'm getting a new kit anyway.
You're getting a new kit Mindless? Damn, I thought it was just a $50 donation to Erac1ing.....
j/k, I can't wait for my kit!!!

I know dood.....I'm bout to go nuts waiting on that damn thing.
Mindless w/o kit = :explode:
Mindless w/ kit = :spinner: :rockon: :bouncing:
im want that skirt and wing. im not too sure bout the wing but the skirt is a definite. their nowhere to be found?
sometimes on ebay you can find them, but it's rare.
Brandon bought a VR4 front end (bumper headlights and fogs)
I bought VR4 sides (that were sold to Mazarin)
so it is possible, but it is far from easy to do
Hmm mwouldn't it be be easier to just import the whole thing?! wouldn't have to worry about engine swap either.
The cost of the car, importing and titling would be huge.
That is if you are wanting it to be street legal.
hey vr6, do you know how much those tail lights would be? i was asking some of my friends in the phil to look at banawe but they haven't replied to me yet.

thanks man!
damn, i think i need a miracle to bring the Diamond Edition VR4 front and rear lights,
along with side & rear skirts, and the front bumper back here in the US :x
i'll let you guys know, especially for those who like the pic posted by vr6,
maybe w/ the help of a local shop around my area, they could fabricate it for us!
wish me luck guys!
ummmmmmmm yummy i want them tails i would definetly pay the surplus price plus shipping for them ...can you get me a set???? pweeaseeeeeeeeeee :twisted:

only missing is the rear skirt... which is about US$43.00 but i am in no hurry. still looking for a cheaper price.
Rear skirts - I've never seen them here!! Whats shipping from where you are to Christchurch, New Zealand? I want it :twisted:
how bout we nominate mr vr6 to get us the parts over to the U.S. that way we get the parts we want and he can make a few dollars as a "finder's fee" and for all the troouble?????
heres my order:
headlights
diamond edition taillights
front bumper skin
:cry:
shipping is really really expensive. fed ex has a special where you can get a box that can barely fit your headlights for 150 bucks. Thats 2 day air. Thats the only real option unless you want to wait like 2 months for the package to come over by boat.
if you're gonna buy a whole lot from he philippines, you might just want to skip the shipping cost and just have a nice lil vacation there and just put everything into your luggage on your way back.
so who's going out to the island anytime soon?i wanna place my order
guys,Quote:

i could get the goods but shipping is very expensive as pinoy as mentioned.
an example, a friend bought 4-1 header from rpw australia for his 4G67 engine. shipping costed him almost double the price of the header. :shock:
if you take a vacation here or anybody you know comes here, i will direct them to the right places to go.... to buy jdm goodies as well as... hmm... other stuff. hehehehe!
i'm not shipping my goodies, especially not by air!
we have a family friend that could help me ship them by boat. i don't really care if i wait 2-3 months, as long as i get them. VR6 already helped me to how much money i should bring to buy DE-VR4 items.
i'm not going for a vacation, just for a wedding, but i made it a priority to find those items and as much as possible, so i can ship them as much as possible.
by the way, you can't get away with putting headlights, folding mirrors, or taillights on your luggage, or balikbayan box, because you'll get caught at either customs, or immigration. maybe back then, but it's post 9/11 so i'm not even going to risk it!
... maybe, we'll see! wish me luck!

And i'm a fellow N.Y.'er -brooklyn to be exact, im serious man i want these parts i just need the contact to get them to me ...... are you the one???
we'll see man.. but of course i'd hook up fellow 7Gen's if this "mission" goes through.
here's what i'm going to do, i'll update you w/ the progress of my "search & rescue" for DE VR4s goodies.
i just don't want to get your hopes up here. i only have few days on the islands, and it's back to NY for me.
also, you know i can't bring alot and you already know the reason :wink:
you can tell them its for your own personal use and that you have 2 7g's 8) anywayz man i hear ya and i hope you can get a set for me i will drive anywhere in Ny to get em or maybe just get em shipped if your in the boonies :wink:
P.S. i can make due with a set of the diamond edition tails
and get the headlights off ebay----> hopefully

for the headlights, just pm or email mitsupiet. he is from holland and he already helped alot of 7gers for the two pcs glass headlights.
I got my Headlights throguh mitsupiet and claeared the corners like vr6's,about 2-3 years ago...
I think someone on another post was looking up some suplier #'s for the DE VR4 tails.
Man i don't care, i'll pay how ever much it cost to get those tails, better than waiting another 3 years to get them. I was trying to go through Ako, but he's never arround to where he can get them for me. Can you hook it up vr6?
hey mrteacha, i'm just waiting for my friend to tell me if they got some space on their shipment,
so i could ship them for free. damn, i'm crossing my fingers for this :evil:
the bulkiest of the DEVR4s that i'm planning to buy is the bumper w/ the fogs:
2.5ft(l) x 5.5ft(w) x 1ft(h).
next would be the rear skirts:
2ft(l) x 5.5ft(w) x 6in(h)
then side skirts:
6.5ft(l) x 5in(w) x 6in(h)
then tail-lights:
1ft(l) x 5ft(w) x 8in(h)
last, the wing:
1.5ft(l) x 4ft(w) x 8in(h)
these are my rough estimates to their dimensions when i'm going to ship them,
and as you can see, they have this lengthy & "widthy" size!
damn, wish me luck!! especially on the shipping part!!!
yeah man good luck cuz if it goes through that means i might be getting a set of tails thrown in that shipment too... just keeps me posted :wink:

just got back from the philppines, still got som jet lag
but neway...
got my DE VR4 tails w/ me and already installed! today!
along the fog lights for my DE front bumper.
left the bumper for boat shipping, it will be awhile but i can wait.
along w/ the shipping is the side skirts and the VR4 wing.
headlights are easy to get along w/ the side mirrors so i went w/ the
hard to get euro-parts (they don't call it jdm back at Banawe)
hey mrteacha, if all goes well, you'll get your DE tails too!
well, gtg to and get some sleep!
:explode: aw man god lookin out for a fellow new yorker and 7g'er aw man im sooooooo glad but how long is the wait for em........... thats all u got for me :oops: i was hoping you got me the same thing you got for yourself ( bumper headlights) i already got the mirrors :twisted:Quote:

MIRRORS! MEEEE!
like i said mrteacha, i didn't buy the headlights cuz
they're pretty common at Banawe in the Philippines,
same w/ the mirrors (sorry Maz)..
the bumper was hard to find, and you had to negotiate
w/ the price; this goes the same for the Euro tails..
neway, THANKS TO VR6, although we didn't get to
meet at Phil while i was there, he gave me the price
quotes and from there on i haggled for price..
...
i DON'T want to get your hopes up, but i DO want to
help fellow 7Gers here (unlike some ppl here who talks
too much about his car, drama.. drama... drama, then
nothing happens).
i'll be like ako, but on the philippine side, k?
god dang man its only been a day since ya told me i might be getting my tails and im already eagerly anticipating their arrival.. makes me wanna take a rowboat to the island and go get em myself...pm me with price so i can start getting my pennies together.. :cry: worth every single cent thoughQuote:

but you already know the story...
don't worry tho, i'm txting some friends as of
yesterday about that fogs, i know you've been
wanting them ever since you got your bumper.
if all goes well, u don't have to wait too much
since i was able to bring them w/ me along w/
the euro tails.
Beat me to the punch https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
I'm on holiday for the next ten days or so, and I've got the pricing all sorted and found the bits.. If people still do want this stuff off me, PLEASE FIND OUT shipping to where you are from Christchurch, New Zealand, money transfers can be worked through Western Union.
I'll be checking my emails frequently - also its easier if you just add me to your msn.
I can get hold of tails, headlights, side skirts, most parts really, and E84 front bumpers easy as, later models are harder to aquire. They dont get wrecked that often!
don't worry Ako, i'm not competing w/ you https://www.thegalantcenter.org/styl...lt/biggrin.gif
i know mrteacha wants the tails, bumper and the lights,
and Maz wants the mirrors and the fogs.
the only hinder is the shipping cost and i know it'll
empty our pockets sooner than we think. but i'm still
talking to some friends for a good shipping quote.
by the way, here's some earlier pics i took of my DE tails
