Guys here is the artwork I have but remember this is artist impression only. The end result will purely depend on the skill of the person in control of the machinery and how much time is spent on the initial setup of the die.

PM Mr_g

he had one on his r33..

Think he payed 25 bucks.. but from memory he bought it from a member on here!!

I got some pics of this old 33.. but nothing up close..

But looked very nice tho..

The GTS badge that krzysiu posted up is the one I didn't like because it looks blatantly fake.

here's one of the the vector designs I used for making the SAU logo ages ago. I made the S sorta using the same curves and dimensions as the font of the original GTR logo. Its fairly easy for me to swap the R with the S to make up a GTS logo, the only problem is converting that concept to a prototype for a badge.

Also something to note is that the R32 GTR logo is different to the R33 and R34 ones, the one I've done is based on the R34. So guys with R32 GTS' might not like em (if you're as pedantic as me about these things).

I've done some casting and resin work before, so I'll give it a shot, and see if I can knock out a prototype.

it would look heaps better if it was just GTS in a line wiht a red 'S'

kinda like the old-school GT-R badges

yeah toyed with the idea of havin the old C10 look badge. I mean... if you really wanted you could get the standard GTS badge (not the sticker, all skylines R32 onwards came with the option of badges or stickers) and recolour the S in red.

Shan,

if you could lets us know how you go it would be great,

Maybe work out the degree of difficulty in making the three diffrent sorts (R32,33, 34) and a price accordingly.

For the guys with gt-t maybe look at GT(over)T ?

Let us know.

at last count i think there was 10 or so that wanted them,

Cheers mate

>_<

Hi Scott,

Yep, i still make them. Dont do them very often, but alwats happy to do one

for someone. Who sent you my way?

I can do them in Aluminium with a custom colour "S", and laquered with UV

resistant resin laquer. Normally people have a red "S" but its your choice.

Price is $45 AUS delivered.

Using this style (above) would be my first preferance :happy:

The one on the green 33 also looks spot on, especially if we can get the "S" in red.

Let Me Drive: Scott that just doesn't look right at all :angry:

    • Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i. 
    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
