I can't find vendors w/ Silvia kits!

[Vegetta]

Yes, I've searched Google, and the FAQ...

I've been looking for a while for some S13/S14 Silvia kits but the only one I've come across was $45 (it was an Initial D kit) at a hobby shop a few miles away.

Can someone point me to a site where I can find some S13/S14 kits at a reasonable price (i.e. not $45 lol ).

Thanks..

There are links to some good shops in the FAQ that more often then not have stock of those kits, did you check them?

Otherwise, www.modelexpress.net has a Silvia in stock for half that price and I can vouch for Dennis as being a good guy.

Yea, already checked the sites in the FAQ.

That S14 is sorta like what I'm looking for.

I'm looking to buy 2, maybe 3 of the same model and build them a bit differently. All definitely JDM/Drift type cars.

You obviously haven't checked the sites in the FAQ because both HobbyLink Japan and Hobbysearch stock Silvia S13, 14 & 15 kits.

I did check the FAQ. With Hobbylink, I'm still gonna pay ~$30 per model, that is if it isn't backordered 60 days. And with hobbysearch, most of their stuff is sold out

A majority of the models we build are around $30. Whats wrong with that? I can tell you now, its going to be like finding a needle in a haystack looking for a Silvia for less than $30. Good luck!

I say, order of HLJ.

Well, for the S14/S15's I saw, I wouldn't mind paying $30 for'em... I just don't wanna pay through the nose for shipping from japan and waiting 60days to recieve my models.


imageanime.com does have a lot of the stuff I'm looking for, for instance the Inital D kit I mentioned above is actually the one in this link... http://matrixcollectibles.site.yahoo...niss14sil.html

You could try to find some one that has one. Or PM RB26DETT-GTR to see where he got his S14 and how much it cost. Also, you could look through the classifieds.
