Thanks guys! the engine is VERY clean..

Mike.. I know what you mean! he tried to sell it to me while I was there.. I would have bought it if it were legalized.. but the additional legalizations feess are just holding me back.

I payed $2405 + tax for it.

Meh, I'd swap vins with one of the dead VR4's @ the shop and register it. I could give a fuck about legalization

I just can't justify his asking price. Alex and I talked about this last night when he told me about your clip. I gotta tell ya Rich you impress me more and more all the time.

Yea, I thought about that, I have a VR4 with 200k miles on it I could switch titles with.. BUT the GTO car isnt in THAT great of condition. It has the most ghetto roll cage EVAR, and the engine bay looks pretty bad.. not worth it IMHO.

hah! they don't come by many 6G72 engines, and GA3S usually buy them all out. There is actually a guy in Orlando that was in line to buy this front clip (I think it may have been ES3000gt, but I bought i out from uner him

)opps.. lol! he has ALOT of Jap-spec engines, mostly 240/honda though.. they did have 4+ 6G74 engines though. and a few non turbo 6G72 engines

RHD time!

blusilvr · 07-20-2007, 09:27 PM

wow jdm speedo stops at 180km lol thats like 110 mph top speed j/k

deflator · 07-20-2007, 09:27 PM

I love it! But wtf happened to the rest of it? Who would do that to a 25k kilometer GTO?

You cant ship an entire car over from Japan without proper importing papers. Thats all you get.

Barefoot · 07-20-2007, 09:43 PM

plus all the front clips they get are more than likely totaled from the rear end..

I would do the RHD if it wasn't soo much work for such little payoff.

and the reason for the slow top speed is mostly because of how strict Jap is about top sped, and uses speed governors.
