Recommended Posts

Have to share this one with you all................

 

I'm trolling the web, and come across this site in Texas USA, its a grave yard for cars, so I click on the Datsun search and these thumbs pop up of a Zed with a G-Nose front, price for the entire car............. $2995.00

 

Here I am thinking, right ring the place, ask if its an original G-Nose "Say what Boyr? what in darnation is a G-Nose?' "No matter I'll take it" do you take credit cards?.............LOL

 

Clicked on the pics and eyes nearly popped out of my skull until I started to look a bit closer.............

Camo,

 

I wouldnt buy it in a fit, what I meant by the post was that at first glance of the thumbs before I took a good look I thought I'd found a real G-Nose, now that would be worth paying $2000+ for.

 

LOL

I have a link somewhere to a Japanese site that makes the best G-Nose parts. This is what original HS30-H aka Fairlady 240ZG owners purchase when the factory parts are damaged. This is a close to the originals you can get today. The product is the best on the market. But you do pay for this quality.

 

I will look for the link now and post as soon as I find it (I have too many links these days)

he also makes the urethane front bumpers :)

 

There are few different types available check them out - these are the best you can get. And as my originals have some cracks in them maybe one day I will order replacements from him - in a few years time when I have the $$ for them

 

Yeah you pay for the quality but its the closest you can get to the original. That's 2,500 euro but I shouldn't be thinking in Euro I should think of the AUD$ then I remember why I haven't bought mine yet lol.

I see a couple of 2 piece G-noses pop up every now and then. Whilst a lot of custom work went into mine and mods to make it fit I still reckon it would be cheaper doing that than buying "an original".
