It's there, just gotta look REAL hard. I doubt something that sexy will be sold here. I think I'll make a trip to Japan next year..

I guess I am the only one who finds this kit ugly.



The Hood is Ok.

I don't even like the hood it's too..... 80's ish

The vents all look like ventilation duct covers off the sides of office building air-conditioning units...

Personally I think it looks like a poor-man's body kit

looks alright.. I'd roll in it

I find it OK looking, minus the ugly side mirrors and ricer rear spoiler. It has that *drifter look* these ricers are after nowadays. I'd betcha it'll cost an arm and a leg to get this bodykit though. This is a helluva lot nicer that the *other* body kit that keeps floating around.....

I love that kit. The only difference between that car having the gt wing and the typical ricer civic with the gt wing is that this particular SA actually runs out on the shutokou at speeds where it actually makes a difference. Personally, I think all rx-7's look better without a rear spoiler.

Try this too if you cant read japanese

I'm torn by the looks of this kit. Half of me likes it because it makes the fb look more modern. But the other half of me doesnt know if thats good or bad. I mainly just like the bumper and the side skirts. The wing looks like Sh*t, and the mirrors are ugly. I dont dig the speed holes in the hood either. Basically, If there was a FB on inital D, it would look like that.

Yeah, I like the kit as well, but I don't really like those massive holes for fog lights in hte front spoiler. It almost looks like a rally car with those.

Like I said, I LOVE the kit...and I bet it's all functional (including the wing). Man...just gorgeous, a technical marvel if you ask me .

I had just never seen it before. I think the sideskirts and front bumper are decent, I don't even mind the louvers much either. The wing looks wrong somehow and the front bumper isn't my favorite though.

Meh, the more kits the better, I need more parts to play with! lol

I LIKE THE BUMPER AND THE HOOD BUT IM NOT SURE ABOUT THE REST. I AGREE THE BUMPER DOSE MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A RALLY CAR (WHAT IM GOING FOR) AND THE HOOD PROBABLY LOWERS UNDER HOOD TEMPS ALOT WHICH IT REALLY IMPORTANT FOR THOOSE HOT HEADED ROTORYS !
