Is it just me or do these two FD's have the flyrx7 triple pods? It's pretty cool how though Japan has all the best choices for parts, they still went for some american made products...

I highly doubt that they bought the flyrx7 pod when tons and tons of manufacturers make the same triple pod in japan. Im sure flyrx7 made them from one of the many companies in japan that originally made them. I could be wrong though. R magic, RE Amemiya and Knightsports all make a triple gauge pod in the same spot.

Hmm, well when I went to RE's, R magic and knightsports shops recently in Japan I saw the same type exactly in RE Amemiya boxes, R Magic boxes and knightsport boxes so yea. There is so much they offer in Japan that we in America dont even know of as far as parts go. I cant remember how many times I saw something and my friend who lives in Japan told me "yea, theyve made that forever". Also alot of parts I found and even purchased they no longer made but did at one time so that could be the reason we make our own since its unavailable.

First of all, thanks guys, these pics take forever to post.
Second, Not sure where the Tri Pod came from in the black FD but 98% of the time these cars are running JDM only. So far the only thing American over here is a set of brand new rotor housing that had P. Ported by Racing Beat,.....oh and MSD ignition. They LOVE "SnapON" here as well...but who wouldn't? Here's more pics.

I have some video of an N/A 20B FC, Amemiya's FD (Porche style front), My buddies, and me. I wish I could have gotten when Amemiya came into the parking lot and whipped a bunch of "shitties". That sounded nice! I'm working on editing the video's so they are more interesting to watch, then I'll post 'em.

Umi Hotaru, I think I stopped at that area. Might be mistaken but sounds really familiar. I still need to upload video of the Central Circuit event. I know people want to see it but I need to filter all the crap out so its entertaining like you stated.
