you just missed out on the group buy. all 25 spots sold out in 24 hours, then we extended it to another 10 slots and those sold out even faster. we MIGHT extend it again, so keep an eye on the thread (see my sig).

I almost sent in the money until I went to remove the light and broke all the mounting tabs on the right side housing. I'm trying to see if I can source a '99 style light instead. They are becoming very rare.

Mega intake looked mega ugly and didn't help much with air temps I think, so he removed it

Thank ya sir!



I'll post more pics after I've managed to get the diffuser (RE-Amemiya PRO) installed, should hopefully finish off the look... then I'll remove the wing for "daily" usage... hopefully it will help me avoid unnecessary police attention.

Did you pull the lights straight out or slide them towards the outside of the car first?

I have a set of almost-new 99 spec lights that I may be selling once I get Tom's pimpin' setup in hand..... I also may just keep them due to the rarity factor you mentioned.

It looks awesome! Is it a direct bolt on or did it require any mods to install?

Hi Gordan, yes; it's the old Amemiya Street Diffuser.

It's pretty much bolt on but takes a bit of massaging to get it right.

Yeah dude, it was a pain in the *** to install. So, you tried to install yours and gave up? I was about to but kept trucking along!

Is photobucket not working or what? All I'm seeing are red x's?

Thanks for the compliments guys. I'm starting to like the white. The only thing I'd like to change are the wheels. Something timeless..

Yeah, after 1 1/2 hour up on a lift with no headway on where to mount the forward most mounting points, no idea on where to reasonably attach the provided brackets, how to secure my screws into the square holes in the body behind the rear wheels and rampant uncertainty on what to do with the myriad screws, washers, nuts and bolts I called it... if the guys at RE-Amemiya had given instructions in English as well, or perhaps less faded pictures, than I would be good... but otherwise... lol, I just didn't wanna **** it up bad, and have it rip off on the highway or something!

Only 6 screws are required. Two of them require drilling new holes, which are located in the rear fender well. The remaining 4 use the stock holes on the back.

On the front of the gas tank, there are two screws with nuts on them. Removed those nuts and a splash panel will come off, you'll then use the screws on the tank straps to mount to the front of the diffuser.....

I've got a different diffuser (pro, vice street), sorry I didn't make that more clear, hehe. The only commonality in mounting is the gas tank straps I believe, and mine were so siezed/old that I almost ripped one apart trying to loosen it :-( and this was AFTER PB Blaster!! Square holes in my fender where the mount/wings would attach also had me perplexed, lol. There were still the 4 brackets with no hint of what they supported/attached to and making sense of which (of the 13 mounting points) screws belonged where... not quiet as cut and dry as I was expecting/hoping for :-(

Lack of an installation guide didn't make matters easier! Lol.. oh well
