Am I the only person who can\'t see the link I\'m supposed to be clicking on?
Go to:
http://www.rotaryextreme.com/fdindex.html
Then goto the links section for millions of FD links - then thank Mr Rextreme for taking the time to do all that lot!! A very useful site!!
Rextreme - Cars factory was up and running a few months back but for some reason it\'s gone down??:( I really liked there car at TAS 05 and there lambo doors are quality (really sturdy).
I pulled this pic off there site b4 it was no more.
Dan - SRB Power import all the Chargespeed stuff, it\'s very reasonably priced I think.

Plus you would have to add the price of the gt fenders as well for the wide arch look
Front 63,000 yen
Rear 31,500 yen
which works out once converted to pounds to £1,520.07
Still quite cheap for such a lovely looking kit, does anyone know of a company that imports them ?
And approx price of having a kit like this imported/sprayed/fitted etc
Nick
Then a few grand more for some hot looking wider wheels, id say going by thos arches you`d need at least 265-40-17 on the front lol
:rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin

yeah i was looking at those,wonder what the offset would need to be, if standard wheels are +50 they must be about +20 to get em to fill the archs, or wheel spacers of some sort.
I reckon there 19" on 30\'s
EDIT
just checked thier website again, sizes listed for the spec
Front 18×9.0J+6 tyre 215/40 R18
Rear 19×10.0J+6 tyre 235/35 R19
wonder if the +6 is the offset, if it is would\'nt that put a hell of a strain on the bearings etc ????? bearing in mind standard is +50
they look a lot wider in the photos

Nick
Thats not 2 bad lol..
Love the arches but the bumbers a bit tame, could you fit another bumber to this kit or would it be to short?
you could fit another front bumper as ive seen pics of this kit with standard wings.
just out of interest i have worked out roughly what it would take to turn a bog standard Rex into the Burnout KD type 2
Body Kit £1520.07
Importing Kit £200 (guess)
Wheels £1500 2 19x10 2 18x9 both +6 offset (if you can find some in UK, otherwise add a few hundred for importing some)
Suspension kit+Fitting £1200 (tein Flex)
Tyres £538 (goodyear Eagle gsd3)
Spraying / Fitting kit £1000 (guess)
Total £5958.07
I reckon i best start saving some

japanese links here (http://www25.brinkster.com/REXTREME/REXTREME_Link_Gallery.asp?Gallery=Rotary%20-%20Japan)
Vanquish is another new kit (http://www.vanquish-equipment.jp/gt_fd.htm)
(http://www.vanquish-equipment.jp/gtfd_1.jpg)
It\'s still nice to see Co\'s developing kits for the FD. SWAT do a kit too that I seem to think looked kinda similar? DOn\'t have a pic to hand though.
I think some of the costings where a little optimistic! £200 for shipping the kit from Japan to the UK? I paid £800 although I did have it put on a plane in the end as opposed to a ship.;)
I\'d of thought £400 at least!!:eek:
The FDs are a bargin to purchase as standard but once you\'ve been bitten by that damn modd bug the car becomes very expesnsive!!:D
Ewwww that Vanquish kit is nice, there are just too many to choose from.
I only put £200 for impoting the kit as i thought you could probably get one of the car import firms to bring one over in a container with there next shipment of cars.
Nick
swat
I want that swat kit, that looks awwsome!! have you any more details bud?
I have their catalouge at home, I\'ll post up their prices for you when I get home.
Yep that SWAT kit is very nice indeed.(http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Score-101010.gif)
Though i would expect it would be the same as all other non mainstream kits and be a total arse to get hold of in this country.
SWAT prices (YEN)
Carbon bonnet 50,400
Front 50,400
Rear 50,000
Skirts 42,000
Front Fenders (20mm wider) 42,000
Rear Fenders (50mm wider) 44,100
- 5 Piece set for 194,250 -
Wheels are SRG-01 17 inch Fronts 9J +30 and Rears 9.5J +15
SWAT from the back..
and another front lol!;)
£1006.00 Thats not bad.:cool ( worked it out as 200,000 yen allowing for going up in price before purchase )
Putting on a ship taking approx 3 weeks would be about £450 - £500, Shipping via Air freight would be more like £800.
Thats what I was looking at for a full 5 piece kit with rear wing.
You\'d also need to allow a few weeks for the kit to be made as most are only made to order. Not that cheap but worth it when you get a glimpse of your finished car!!:D
SOOOOOO £1000 ish to buy it, and £800 ish to air frieght it, say a round £2000.
Thats still not to bad really.
Initial-D please stop tempting me (http://smilies.sofrayt.com/%5E/2/salook.gif)
Yeah a good price for a full kit! Certainly makes the car stand out and look distinctive:cool
and, and.. Oh alright then... I gotta sleep anyway!;)
Any web links for the SWAT kit ?
Tried to google it and cant find a website for em.
(http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Scratch-Head.gif)
EDIT
No worries i found it eventually, http://www.swat-racing.com/ :D :D
and apparently its up for sale for 1,850,00 yen, which is about £9500.
