Jss fc3s

So I just watched the FC3s vs. R31 Hot version, and saw the kit Keiichi Tsuchiya was running on his RX7…

Does anyone know someone who makes a replica of this kit, i'm sure the original mold is long gone by now





Also here is the video that I am referring to, if you have time, give it a watch!

I love the look too and researched the kit before. Everything I can find points to this being RE-Amemiya parts. For sure, the hood and rear spoiler are. These are still available.

Front bumper = I'm not sure. It looks like a Fam Speed or maybe early ERC.
Mirrors = Re-Amemiya Type 2, out of production
Hood = £Ð£Á£Ò£Ô£Ó¡¡£Ì£É£Ó£Ô
Spoiler = £Ð£Á£Ò£Ô£Ó¡¡£Ì£É£Ó£Ô
Fenders and sideskirts = ? I'm going to guess bespoke. Every widebody I've seen has the wrong fender line. ERC is the only company still making JSS style widebody parts: http://www.erc-rotary.com/parts/aero-fc3s.htm

So, my guess is it is all Amemiya stuff, and some of it was only for JSS.

Edit: They tri-point stuff posted above looks awefully close on the fenders.

ERC (click for website) makes one of the closet kits, although isn't quite the same.
I believe the RE-Amemiya Super Greddy 1 Body kit was based off of these molds, but I don't think its available anymore. Picture for reference:

So I came across this kit, suppose to be a Tri-Point replica kit…

Raceonusa HiFlex Type-338 Complete 5-Piece Wide Body Kit > Mazda RX7 86-92 > 2/3-Door - Ground Dynamics

Says 5 piece, guess it comes with the bumper too? Don't know that i'll use it but w/e.

How much luck have any of you had with RaceOne? Quality, fitment, ect.

Raceonusa is notorious for crap fitment. They used to be next door where I worked. They closed up shop 2 years ago.
