On the Japanese autions and you could buy a small country for the price I paid!!! Invasion

After it has landed, I guess it will work out to be somewhere around $550- to $700- depending on how I get it freighted of course. That's the price you pay though for the rarety of it. It is even rare in Japan, so they are hard to come by and quite expensive. They are over $1000- brand new....if you can get one now I guess. That's where a Supra has an advantage in being a true sports car! These kinds of part are so much cheaper and more widely available.

I actually made a mistake. The thing had only been up there for 2 hours. I placed a bid at what I thought was the starting price only to realize a minute or two later that it was set to a buy price and not a bid price!!!!
I had bought it. Very Happy

It was pure luck.

I started searching from the back pages and it happened to be 'Buy Now' as I said B4! It had only been posted up for just under 2 hours!
Once I have it, (I might go the s-l-o-w freight to save money) I will swap over my LED globes and see how it goes.

It will also force me into getting a Mine's ECU or a speed cut of some sort to test it out I guess!

Hehehe! I'll just get the wife to walk along side me so I can estimate the speed! LOL
Also, if the doors auto lock I know I have hit 20Km/h. Cool

Very nice!!

I looked at getting one of those new because my dash is fukt. But they are discontinued, so impossible to get hold of!! Will have to look over the auctions for another one. If I'm going to be importing a new dash from Japan, it may as well be a good one!

Mine will be for sale if everything works out. Very Happy I recall someone on here has a few standard dashes in their posession. Try the WTB section and see what happens or ask Aaron. Some half cuts come with them, but also many don't.

Nooo someone beat me to a cheapy noooo. You've got a bargain as Aaron has quoted these are very expensive as i was looking at the $1000 mark for one aswell.

You should be the first in oZ with the 320kmh dash on a Aristo.
