I'm kind of sure Pan Speed doesn't have a web site.

Catalog!

Hey Dragon,
I live in Houston, Texas. Do you have Pan Speed's address or E-mail address? I want to have them send me a catalog. Here in Houston, we dont see any Pan Speed stuff. I want to get some of those carbon fiber doors!
Thanks, Kevin (KEMRX7@aol.com / AIM--->KEMRX7)

First, You need to pay them for the catalog. It's not free. Second, They will never send a catalog outside Japan.

Bah, I wouldn't mind "buying" a 2002 Panspeed catalog since I can't see much of their stuff at all
Maybe you guys could sneak some out for us. Any idea how much they cost?

Hey Neo Omega...no need to be a smart ***! Of course u would have to pay them for a catalog...just like a catalog from any other manufacturer. And to Dragon...Thanks for trying to help us FD owners here in the states! If you get any of those Japan-only Tuner catalogs posted on the net, it will definately be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance, Kevin (KEMRX7@aol.com / AIM--->KEMRX7)

Those catalogs cost quite a bit, just to let you know. Do you realize how many pages are in those catalogs? The Cusco catalog alone has at least 100+ pages and I know I'm guessing very conservatively.

From what I heard, you don't even a FD or FC.

Actually the Pan Speed catalog is only about 12 pages...

The reson they don't sell to the states is because there is no market to make it worth their time our trouble to establish distributors... I don't know of manny Americans that will buy a $5,000 single turbo kit or a $3,000 intercooler from them when you can get the stuff from the USA for about 1/2 to 1/3rd the price and Aero parts are big and there for expensive to ship and then you add import tax and the distributors mark up and you've got a $1,500 piece of fiber glass... Don't see too many people buying those either...

Which is not include the shipping. The shipping will cost you an arm and a leg.

Carbon fiber is too costly.
One side of the Pan Speed FRP door is 88000 JP Yen.
It is US$676.

If the doors accept the factory panels and speakers with no problem $676 a door is not bad at all, as a matter of fact, anyone know if they accept the door panels, and if so where can I order them.

I'd be more worried about gettting t-boned than saving a few pounds of weight... There's just some thing about the thought of a piece of Carbon Fiber gutting me that just doesn't sit right with me..
