Just curious about how many truenos in Sydney, and if they are zenki or kouki styled and genuine or converted. And GT-Apex or GT-V...

GT Apex front end and tailights...
Well I am pretty sure there is no differentce between GT-Apex and GTV in the tailights and front end so I assume u meant kouki instead... as the tailights were redline?

I meant diff and fuel tank.
You guys will have to tell me the rest as I'm not up on the terminology.
I know I want to update the front bar the the wrap around style indicators.

I think I saw ur car on one of my roadtrips. 1G-GTE, nice... Is it hard fitting the SSS rear wing? Or direct boltup.
As for the front bar, U have zenki (early spec) front bar and indicators, you are after kouki (update) front bar and indicators. The redline tail lights you have are also kouki, the zenki version are the same as the standard aus-delivered "sprinter" lights...
With the 2-tone black and grey... What kinda grey? The colour of Primer comes to mind haha, or u mean metallic grey?

what you are looking at is the way I purchased the car (however you really don't want to see it at the moment  ) the SSS wing looks like it has had the arms the the hatch shortened a little to make it a neat fit.
If I were to replace the front bar do I need to find the correct mounting brackets or are they the same for both the early and late models??

the bumper support mounts are different, you'll need the kouki brackets.
that two toned black and grey looked like the one pro_k was selling - GT-Apex everything

Oh that really nice black and grey-silver one.... I thought was a GTV, I dont remember power windows (but then again I dont remember much). Supernice! Lucky guy to have to cahs to front for that car.
Dont suppose you wanna sell you hatch with wing attached Lambo? hehe
Best person to get kouki bumper supports formw ould be truenosedan1, Dave Lawson, Adelaide based and owns AJPS.
I bought mine from him recently as mine was all cabled-tied on. U can PM him on toymods or hit him up on.
