$625 is a little high for a starting bid. Also, you can't tell if it's divided or undivided.

It's probably divided; the dual pipes to the wastegate is a hint.

Yep, I know a little that Exhaust Manifold is $740 without shipping. Thats brand new of course. The diameter of the pipe is 50mm and also they make it for your turbo, so they do it for any turbo you just have to specifiy. You can get with me if you want to know more. Just stop by my web page and email me.

Hope that helps

Well Well Well, how many people do we have importing HPI? I had someone tell me he was, Now we have Sokudo being the man, and HPI`s web page says nothing about either of these people? What might be going on here? Now I did check the HPI web site and I think Im just going to give it out to you guys, they send it from HPI to the states and their web page is in english, they speak english too. So lets stop with the BULLCRAP, here in the HPI site in english http://www.hpi.co.jp/

Also for the people that lie.... Lets not bullcrap around, some people are just trying to get the good stuff to that states. Dont be a player hater, because you cant get your *** off your shoulders..

Well maybe the email you got and sokudo are the same person? I don't see anyone being a player hater here.
Nobody is being lazy. HPI has a set timetable and it is spread out over the next yr. They just don't jump into something this big without planning.

I was just thinking Sokudo and the guy that e-mailed me might be the same, if he goes by more then one name... Im straighting it all out today... Im talking with HPI today, but I dont think they would give ONLY RIGHTS to the US to a company that isnt even started all the way...At least thats what the guy said to me last night, he is the USA distributor

i know a **** load more than you obvisouly, what does having being mentioned on there webpage have to do anything? seeing they hardly up date that anyway? go ahead and call them ask for kelli and, say HI i am ******* retard , also how do you know what that company would do?
" but I dont think they would give ONLY RIGHTS to the US to a company that isnt even started all the way...At least thats what the guy said to me last night, he is the USA distributor"
sounds like you are talking out of your *** again, is it your company? let them run it how they want. quit saying i don't think, u can't make a statement based on what you think, that is a opnion that should be kept to yourself especially when calling some one out, get the facts!! call hpi ask them who has the rights to ditribute, i would put my money i know what kelli is going to tell you, then go walk in your bedroom and go **** yourself
and you are correct about what vosko asked but until you opened that hole in your head about the whole importing thing this could have stayed nice

Ya RETED is right. HPI doesnt make it they are just selling the ones for the GTR, 180, silvia and whatever other cars..ON THE ENGLISH PAGE... BUT if you look in the same place under the Japanese page, which is decent enough to find the shifter they have it too, its 140,000 yen

listen here fuckstick, i am getting tired of going back and forth with you if you would have mentioned you were going to call in your orginal post and would have posted your results of what they told you AFTER you called them instead of accusing my firend ofs lying and bullshitting you, because then you would have known the answer, that scott and rob are the only usa authorized distrubitors, if you perfer to go on the facts then hurry up and call it has been over 24 hrs since you intially opened your ******* hole, you have plenty of time to call them! so get the facts then you may come back tell everyone how much of a ******* retard you are, but i have this funny feeling that when you do find out i am right and you should have kept your hole shut we won't be hearing form you much. what the hell do you do in japan anyway? let me guess some military kid that hinks since he is japan and has access to all the parts the u.s. guys don't you are a distributor?
