My guess would be Re Amemiya (sp?). But I'm not sure.

It adds down force. Down force= road holding. Its also the selling point of the new GTRs. Mock it all you want, that spoiler on a stock FC will out hang most lightly modded FCs.

possibly true if it's tall enough but kinda useless/extravagant on a street car.

I always the only two GT wings for the FC that added downforce were the RE-A unit and FEED unit. IIRC, the FEED one is discontinued, and the RE-A not far from it. Taller is better, but at least you can still have a bad *** wing and tell the civic next to you at a stop light its not for show

You don't need that spoiler on a STOCK fc. It might handle better at like 120 but other than that it just sits there lookin' ugly. Sorry...

Right thread!

If you seriously want one of those "3D" rear wings, prepare to go to Japan for them...

US$350 is not bad, but you still gotta pay to import them to have it landed in the USA.

That would also be wrong. It would look terrible on a stock car, but I know a guy that has an RE-A unit on his FD, and he says the rear feels more crisp at all speeds with the spoiler one VS no spoiler or stock. His car is a POS though, so I don't know if I should take his word...

Stock JDM S4 tail lights said rotary turbo. I think the S5 may have too but I'm not sure. JDM top mount intercoolers also said "Rotary Turbo with intercooler" on them where the USDM intercoolers said "13b Intercooled TURBO II".
