I don't think there are any companies in Ontario. I know a company in Ohio had a couple supra half cuts before. You can contact them if you wish and ask if they could get you one. http://www.streetimports.com/

Just a little off topic, but what area of Chatham do you live? I've seen a couple Supras here and heard of one being totaled too! Just curious!

i live on the north ide of chatham. algonquian dr. and yeah i have been to that ohio site and they have a couple front cuts but i just didn't want to have to pay for bringing it across the border. oh well. looks like i might have to even if i just get another 7mgte.

hey 51cards

What was it like getting the front cut through the border? how much was shipping and stuff?

Hey Goreo... check out my site (in my Sig) for more details... from there follow the first link to the pictures... and on THERE you'll find a file called "AboutJarco.txt" Will giva you a bunch of info on the swap, clips, etc.

Getting it up here wasn't too bad but not cheap. First off it had to be shipped from Georgia and shipping half a car (plus rear subframe) isn't cheap. I had it shipped to Detroit where a friend stored it for a couple weeks. I took a trailer down there on a weekend, loaded it up, and hit the border early on a Sunday monrning. I declared it as "parts" (never use the word "car" or "half car" with customs... they won't let it in without a BUNCH of hassle... and if it's JDM they won't let it in... period) Saying it was "parts" (which essentially it was anyhow... just all bolted together ) gave me no hassles.. I paid my duty and off I went.

If you want to discuss the whole process further feel free to email me at: writesteve@@rogers.com

Wow... another Chathamian.... what are the chances? Hit me up on ICQ (51155383) or AIM (z00g13)

several company can do that, it takes around 3 to 4 weeks to get here, all you need to do is put a deposite.

if you want, I can get you one, but this front clip won't come with a 5 speed tranny for sure..

most of the Japanese ones comes with auto tranny..

Normally it comes a warranty for the engine for 90 days.. you should look around 3000 bucks for the whole front clip. maybe less than that.. the engine might cost around 1000 Canadians... 3000 is just the upper bound I guess.. should be something between 1500 - 2500... depends ont he condition.. anyways.. one of the shop i knnow offers free shipping within ontario.. drop me a line at derek@chinesebiker.com
i will see if i can help. Thanks.
