Default Parts needed

I am needing both fog lights passenger side headlight.

I would be interested in the shift **** and possibly the nav unit.

Thanks.

Hi mate good luck on the swap!

I'll get around to doing this one day lol. $4500 seems pretty decent for a full front clip, tail shaft and rear end. Where did you get it from?

ok so this weekend i stared the pull apart Guards ,bumper and rad support off and 90% of the motor dissconnected it took roughly 3-4 hours. while i was at it i thought i would try the Aristo cluster in my gs as a test and it works great and shows Less than a QUARTER of a tank Everyone So For everyone who has done the swap and having the running out of fuel at a quarter of a tank issue a JDM cluster might be your easy fix. This weekend i will be swapping out my diff for my Torsen one and im also waiting for a few other bits and pieces on order my Walbro 255 ,sard Jpk and my intercooler kit (i will be modding the JZA80 kit) ill keep yous posted

You can get that emblem brand new. They have them for 98-00 and 01-05.
