We'll see how it turns out... we're starting the build when I get back from Japan.
I always like how NA perform on the track - high reving sound. Good luck on that and let us know how it comes out.

In Japan, picked up a few pretty unique parts... not ready to show pics yet though. I did get a brand new Nismo oil pump for a crazy deal. Should be perfect for the NA build

Sorry Shane... I just took 5 clocks to Japan, I send them all out there. Check ebay, it's your best bet.

will you be mass producing those ducts? or better yet, you have one for sale?
pm me if either is possible.
seriously interested.

Yeah, duct is a one off custom piece. We may make them in the future, problem is that installing them properly into the light is not easy. It was made to look like it was an oem part, and lots of care was spent making it so the headlight would seal up properly (to prevent condensation). Plus producing them is going to be costly, and unless the demand is out there, it will be difficult to justify mass producing them. Like I said, it might be a future product, but definitely not a priority for us right now.
