Erebuni Mold-in Spoiler. Retails for just under $300 if I remember correctly. Check out their site. www.erebuni.com

Thats an ok spoiler but for $300 Id rather make brackets and use an aluminum wing. Again it wouldnt go on a street car and would be low. Just my taste. Goofy drift style.

Goofy drift style? That wing is only about 3 years old, and made to imitate the NSX.

What's this new CRAP about "drift style"? There are little to NO spoiler/aero mods that can significantly increase your drifting ability.

Any aerodynamic disturbence would create resistance and turbulence. More downforce on the tail of a car, would make it more difficult to throw out. The best "drifting" wing wouldn't be the Erebuni spoiler, the RE-Amemiya spoiler, or a big aluminum spoiler. Aerodynaically speaking, the best spoiler, would be none at all.

never said I wanted to use it for drifting.. my 2nd gen will have 500LB of audio equipment anyways so it wont be a racer either. I like that wing and thats the only picture of it I can find! I need to see other pictures of it so if anyne has some home shot pictures of it on your car can I see them please?, Thanks

The rear spoiler is NOT Erebuni.

It's by Maztech of Melbourne, Australia +613 9416-8411

Not sure if that's some kind of phone # or what, I have that pic printed out from last year and that's the info I was given, so I wrote it down on the pic printout.

I highly doubt that drifting in the states is just another fad...at least I hope not. I personally think that it's one of the greatest tests of car control there is (best of all being a rally race since you must blend drifting with grip driving...you don't see huge powerslides, but that's what makes it soo great). It would be so sad if people just let it go so quickly...

Upon further inspection, it looks like Erebuni's spoiler is a knock-off of the Australian Wing. The only difference I can see is the thickness of the wing. Check it out.

Pics of ImportBoi's RX-7 w/ the Erebuni Wing





I'd look into the aussie wing if I were to get it. But if it's unavailable, the Erebuni would be a great alternitive.

the australian wing sits a little lower as well. i like it more too. im not real fond of eribuni products.

btw...ive been noticing the whole "drift style" thing latley as well. its pissing me off. drifting is not an aesthetic style people, its a driving form. i think my biggest fears of drifting might come true pretty soon. when i come to hang out with my car guys and some punk kids come up to me and tell me about how they are drift style in their fuggin civic. at that point ill stop drifting.

Just show them how it's done. Let them know what worthless little bitches they are. Anyone who does something following a fad, instead of doing something because they enjoy it NEEDS to be publicly embarassed... if not flogged.
