Gts Badge Interest Revived

[Darkboy]

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.

I suggest you guys check out powerplay imports, they did some very good versions of the badges, including GTS(Top Line)R and GT(Top Line)S.. ill try and find who does it again and post.

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..

[siddr20]

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.

why make it look like a gtr badge at all?

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

GTR badge for reference:

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.

[Ronin33]

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

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.

Cool I would like an all alloy one with (no red S). Im not real keen on the one posted on the first page the S does not look right.

Using this style (above) would be my first preferance

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

[Munna1]

Yes, I think we nearly all agree the S on the green car in in the SAU pic above looks the best. But some will want red some all alloy, surely something can be worked out.
