Finally got the new diffuser fitted all i have to wait for now is the car to arrive on our shores!  I love the look spoiler is definately big but the car is by no means designed to be subtle!  Hope you like it.

They can be diffecult to fit if doing at home, if you have access to a ramp then alittle better.
If you have any rear spats on your car you might have to cut the diffuser alittle to fit.


First pic is a underside view of fitted diffuser, second pic is of my car where we have to slightly cut the diffuser and sand down to fit over the veilside rear spats.

Very nice indeed. :)

Is that the RE-Amemiya rear diffuser?

Post by: James B on March 19, 2006, 08:47:02 PM
Bought my Diffuser off Ashley today and Andy fitted it.

Jolly kind of them both to do all this on a Sunday especially with a 1994 car where all the nuts and bolts are rusted solid.

Looks good and I reckon I could feel some downforce on the way home.

Well pleased ....... good bit of kit and solidly installed.

A rather poor photo.

after speaking to clive regarding this - it has been decided that you cannot sell items on here on behalf of your friend .. we have paying vendors on here selling the same products and its not fair on them

if you friend would like to sign up as a supporting vendor - then i can give you the details

thanks

Your friend (I think its Ben) obviously has a fd why does he not come on here explain the situation and sell them, why the 3rd party? Is stockbroking at an all time low. Strange set up. Just my opinion no ofence meant.
Title: New Diffuser fitted!
Post by: AshRX on March 21, 2006, 01:19:31 PM
Ben???? Sorry dont know Ben with an FD. No my mate who sells them used to have a FD till 6 months ago when the engine blew. He only had it a couple of months, but is more into the other Jap cars etc now as I think he got fed up with the rotary engines lol.
I bought one of my mate and he said he had a few more left over that he wanted to get rid off so i said i would try and get rid of them. He doesnt have access to a pc most of the time so i said i would help him out. Hope this explains the situation.

And Gary yes very quiet at the moment - dont help working for a small firm either

Gary, why jump to a short conclusion and assume Ben is the supplier. He most certainly is not.

Prehaps you should have PM\'d Ben before dragging his name on the forum, that is if we are talking about the same Ben. :)

Nothing to do with me I\'m afraid Gary and no offence taken, I had four of them which I sold to friends - I wanted another for my car but could only get a batch of five made buy an FRP supplier to make it worth his while.

This was some time ago now, and in no-way a money making venture. I doubt I\'d make even half the vendor fee if I was gonna try and profit from it!!
