Wonder if they are admitting to something....

maybe they just want a piece of the very profitable metal ast pie?

 

As for the air separator which removes the air from the engine coolant, from the resin make tank of standard in the aluminum make modification. It made the strengthening item which withstands also the continual high load which covers long time. (March sale schedule)

About $330 US

 

damn a $330 ast? that ludicrous. oh well, i'm guilty of buying some overpriced mazdaspeed parts too.

 

What is the Pettit one make of? Steel? Al?

 

330 bucks for a beer can? LMAO!

 

They DO have some interesting items, though. Did anyone notice the tranny tunnel bracing?

 

If it prevents the PPF(Power Plant Frame) from cracking, I'll go for it.

 

hehe i got micah's ast for 80 bucks, works great !!!

 

I saw it too. I want that.

 

FYI - 33,000 Yen = $244 USD, still a lot for an AST, not to mention you can't even get them here I bet. Anyone know if any of this stuff can be gotten here in the US? I know Corksport imports some of their stuff, and RX7.com used to have a lot of stuff from their catalog.

 

It doesn't seem like it would help much with the PPF, but it should help stiffen up the chassis. I was hoping someone would make a new brace for the area at the rear end of the midpipe because I removed mine to make clearance (stop the clunking) for the exhaust system. One of the two aluminum "bars" on mine was cracked. I don't know if it cracked from heat or from stress, but I would like to get a replacement brace that leaves more room for the exhaust.

I'm interested in price/availability of the Mazdaspeed braces if someone finds a U.S. source for them. Please post if you have info.

Thanks,

Tanabe also makes an undercarriage brace for the FD similar to the MAZDASPEED one. They don't bring it to the US though bastards!

 

You guys know, those bars don't look very difficulte to fabricate........

 

Add the shipping and handling stuff, it will be around $330.
