Haha, man it's just like the idiots that say they're gonna keep the stock USDM front on their integra's because a JDM front is played out.

Because of course, every stock integra in the US has a USDM front.

damn, you guys got snow already?

Thats all version select right? looks like the front bumper fits well, how did you support it?

and the sexy style rear matches well.

nice work!

silversr · 10-13-2009, 04:05 PM

Heres another version select Kouki kit. Fits pretty good IMO

REVGASM · 10-13-2009, 05:40 PM

NWLW · 10-13-2009, 06:35 PM

that is absolutley dope. funny to see your sides and rear lower than the front though.

Olly · 10-13-2009, 07:56 PM

I wish my car was red.

Brian · 10-13-2009, 08:03 PM

Brian · 10-13-2009, 08:11 PM

Here is SOME footy I shot

YouTube - Josh the Risky Devil gets so sick at that USAIR track in the middle of nowhere Wisconsin!

YouTube - RISKY DEVIL Chicago Drag Race Drift Club with REVGASM and the TYPE R.
Hot E brake action so you can see the VS-KF full chrome hotness.

YouTube - JOSH risking the Devil... E BRAKE locker room brawl.
Another HOT e-brake dirt kicker with frozen in time VS-KFs

Serious.
It even has a hood. (not shown though)

I can see the miss perception behind it, but the way I see it is that its original, yet its not as mainstreamed as the usual silvia conversion. I originally had a stock white 92 hicas hatch, 150k original miles, and the owner was a senior. I got rid of it for a 93 dual cam coupe once I saw a proper onvia that didnt carry some tacky body kit. That front oe end is so simple, practical on fitment, and sexy.

Uh I have no idea what that actually had to do with what i said, but whatever taniguchi abviously got what i was saying and feels the same way.

I mean a type x onevia is understandable but my point is why would we start a onevia thread when thats what every usdm coupe owner starts with?

ayuaddict · 10-14-2009, 03:54 AM

this video reminded me of this thread.

lowNslow · 10-14-2009, 04:20 AM

^I JUST watched that on youtube like an hour ago lol. He hit the same spot before that too but didnt flip the 1st time

So are all of you guys running the type x bumper reinforcement as well? I have read the whole thread and the consensus seems to be that this helps the bumper to fit right and avoid sagging...

This thread is changing my winter plans...

***CrimsonRockett*** · 10-14-2009, 11:36 AM

Having the correct brackets does wonders.

My old white bumper did have all the correct brackets, but they were rusted to shit.

All the bolts pretty much snapped during removal.

(Bumper was being held on by 1 bolt. So, it would've fit even better with everything properly bolted up.)

Here's the new bumper with chuki brackets.

Gap is a little larger. Don't mind the lip either. Didn't bother bolting it on.

If I mess with it, I'm sure I can get it to fit almost perfectly, but I'm super anal about fitment. So, I had Ray @ West Co Nissan order the correct brackets for me.

Project car will have all the correct brackets.

When I get around to throwing all the Kouki stuff onto the daily, It'll just have the chuki brackets.

Not so anal with the daily. A minor gap isn't going to kill me.

im not running one just the top piece and the gap is very small smaller than the width of my pinky .

CamryOnBronze · 10-14-2009, 11:54 AM

Sweet, thanks for the info guys, I appreciate it! If I do it, I am probably going to buy all of the front end components new, since I don't think there is anyone in Michigan running type x aero (the odds of finding front end parts used is pretty much non-existent). I would probably try to score the sides and wing used though.

My largest hesitation at this point is the front lip... between it being fiberglass and hearing bad customer reviews on Modiride, part of me wants to stick with the chuki/xenon lip combo. It's nice to scrape on the garbage roads here and not really have to worry about it...

All of the sick cars in this thread are making me think otherwise though.

***CrimsonRockett*** · 10-14-2009, 12:25 PM

Just do it.

I couldn't stand the Xenon lip.

The Kouki bumper flows so much better with Chuki sides even without the lip.

why dont u just get a foam or a piece of good rubber and fill in the gap. ur talking about the one between the bumper and the hood right? i remember doing to my friends car when he had that problem and it turned out pretty nice.
