These are pics from an old post...my question is what kind of grill does it have.  I know it isn't C-West.  Anybody know?

Here is the old post.

it looks east bear to me....
someone here is a dealer... i cannot recall who

BadMoJo · 10-23-2002, 03:54 PM

I am gonna take a wild guess.... For some reason I thinks it the same one they used on the Nismo 270r

Not sure though.

Black240sx · 10-23-2002, 03:56 PM

I think that is a stock 96 grill...

*SaintlyCharBoy* · 10-23-2002, 07:23 PM

i don't think it is a stock one - here's a stock one, (stolen from grant's webpage - for education purposes only -)

Stock: [img]http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0MwAAAI8QSojUoK3Py7xQMS1nMaAMFUTZJ3Buq8K0qqX2onw5x hzK!Bb66!mSZNX2084OItou*Ch7Elno2noy4A/DSC000442.JPG[/img]

aftermarket:

if you look carefully, the aftermarket one has much wider uprights, and the lateral member is at the midpoint between the hood and the bumper, where the stock lateral member is almost at the lower hood-line

i am virtually positive that i have seen this grille on a yellow east bear car that i hit through someone's link

i'll look for it

-sorry if i come of like an ass
-sorry for stealing pics

long ass week

EastBear:

Oh BTW, that red S14 off Grants web page is Jared's(sp?) car and thats not a stock 96 grill. Its a stock jdm grill....

It does look like the east Bear one, butr still kinda like the Nismo one. Check out Jspec.com they have both.

*nismo270r* · 10-24-2002, 11:54 PM

The one on the red car from Grant's page is a JDM Navan grill.  The one on the black car from the orignal post is a 270R grill.  Look on www.jspec.com for it under 240SX/Body Mods.  Notice the gap between the grill and hood is larger on the 270R grill than on the Eastbear grill.

BadMoJo · 10-25-2002, 12:16 AM

WooHoo!  I knew it.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

I did notice the bigger gap...I just figured it was because of the different bumpers.  I checked JSpec for the 270r grill but all I saw was the Nismo grill which doesn't look like the other grill.  Now I'm really confused!  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/huh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':huh:'>

BadMoJo · 10-25-2002, 01:30 PM

the nismo one at jspec is the 270r grill. its just a bad angle in the pict.

look for picts of the nismo 270r it might show it better.

Dunkee · 10-28-2002, 08:27 AM

I asked the guy what grill it was and it is Eastbear...sorry Bad Mojo  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
