[valley _boy]

i bet when their duct kit comes out it will be around $60000 dollars.

[RedSiBaron]

i bet when their duct kit comes out it will be around $60000 dollars.

dont be a dick, wayne didnt have to make shit for us...otherwise youll have to pay more for an authentic mugen duct

[BaLisTek]

eh i dunno man... def made for the 04-05 bumper

[IWASHATCHED]

Why does it still feel like you forgot to get your change back? Hahaha.

[cow]

It looks like butt on the 02/03 bumper. If you're doing it big, don't bitch out.

[valley _boy]

eh i dunno man... def made for the 04-05 bumper

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v511/BaLisTek/JDM%20Parts/P5140218.jpg

doesnt look too bad actually...u can prolly make it fit better once the bumper is installed.

[IWASHATCHED]

doesnt look too bad actually...u can prolly make it fit better once the bumper is installed.


Not really, you would have to see it in person. Grill is WAY off at the bottom.

[RedSiBaron]

thanks guys. If I don't get the 04-05 bumper.. the authentic grill will go up for sale. Guy made me buy it to get the duct.

if i were you id hold out until you can get ahold of the 04-05 setup, you seem to really want that...dunno why HAHA

[BaLisTek]

i need to post my 02-03 bumper back for sale. I had a buyer already lined up. 525 +ship.

I wont be able to afford a lip for alil while tho

[valley _boy]

thanks guys. If I don't get the 04-05 bumper.. the authentic grill will go up for sale. Guy made me buy it to get the duct.

sell it to me if u decide not to keep the grill.

[stealth]

congrats man. Nice pickup for sure.

[TexasTechEP3]

i don't like how the grille is not symmetrical. and that radiator grill just looks ugly with a hole cut out of the bumper.

[stealth]

yes but they are designed to be functional not to look pretty

[BaLisTek]

i needs 04-05 jdm bumper

[TexasTechEP3]

rofl ok? and how many people on this board actually will use that functionality and not just getting it because they think its cool to have mugen parts?

[profresh]

nice pick up. im surprised noone has picked up your 02-03 bumper yet

[BaLisTek]

rofl ok? and how many people on this board actually will use that functionality and not just getting it because they think its cool to have mugen parts?

Even if it were the case... would it really matter?:painkiller:

[TexasTechEP3]

Even if it were the case... would it really matter?:painkiller:

Nah thats what I'm getting at. It's cool you like it, I'm all for it. I personally don't like it, and trying to tell me that its functional won't change my opinion because most likely I would never use it to its potential and it would end up just being an aesthetic mod.

[tsxdriver]

damn... you scored some nice parts!!

[ALL MotoR Ep3]

go0od shyt.....lol now we know who on ephatch is BALLLLLLLLLLLLLiN

[STP03BlueSI]

mmmm mugen:mtongue::mangel:

[IWASHATCHED]

It's a good thing we all don't like the same sh*t.

[Windchaser]

dont be a dick, wayne didnt have to make shit for us...otherwise youll have to pay more for an authentic mugen duct

Sorry, but I would rather pay more for a dry carbon piece than some retarded FRP or Aluminum shit. For Mugen, you have to pay the price.

[frankdogg]

i'll trade you my 02-03 mugen grill for your 04-05.

[Windchaser]

BTW Ron, I am jealous of the parts you picked up. I sold my 04-05 Mugen lip and my 04-05 Mugen grille to a member on this forum, which I miss a lot. I had to sell it because I hated the half bumper lip so much. His face lift is going to be so badass after his new paint job.

[team ERA 5]

how much did all this run you? big baller!

[thisisagame24]

nice pick up ron

[supreme]

sell me the rad duct! lol

[BaLisTek]

i'll trade you my 02-03 mugen grill for your 04-05.

If i can't find an 04-05 bumper soon.. we can def talk

[FoReVaPmP]

sell me the rad duct! lol

Aren't you selling your car and parting it out....:mrolleyes:

[supreme]

Aren't you selling your car and parting it out....:mrolleyes:

yeah, i was.. then i got scured.

[ep3moschini]

yeah, i was.. then i got scured.

:mfrown: I was praying for a KRX after the part out

[EX-FULLRACE EP3]

Nice parts! :mcool:


Guess you have to change your sig now...

[wilpezash]

Nice pick up! glad you decided to keep the Ep :thumb:

[frankdogg]

If i can't find an 04-05 bumper soon.. we can def talk

f'sho, keep me in mind.

[SinisterCivicSi]

yeah, i was.. then i got scured.

about time you came to your senses. :mwink:

[NyQuil]

balllllllllllllllllllllllllllllin, yo dude, i guessed right :msmile:

[KrypTOniTE]

Hey where can i get the right size mugen emblem that goes on the mugen wing????

[RedSiBaron]

Sorry, but I would rather pay more for a dry carbon piece than some retarded FRP or Aluminum shit. For Mugen, you have to pay the price.

oh i totally agree with you, i wouldnt run a replica cuz thats not what my build is about, just saying the guy didnt have to shit on wayne, atleast hes giving people an option since its been discontinued...

[BaLisTek]

i have a feeling that blood would get drawn if i were to post up that mugen duct for sale:mangel:

I want to know too...my mugen wing is mugen emblemless...:mfrown:

[Windchaser]

inlinefour.com; jhpusa.com, kingmotorsports.com, jdmland.com, etc. etc. etc.

take your pick.

[BaLisTek]

Mugen = BAD

I seriously had no intentions of making people feel bad about any of this.

I'm just stoked that I actually found the duct brand new. The grill, I didn't even want to buy in the first place. I was forced to buy the grill in order to get the duct. I just get pissed off when people I don't even know call me names or judge me

[SinisterCivicSi]

thread cleaned up.

e-thugs will be banned. no questions or explanations.

:peace:

[BaLisTek]

thanks for the clean up

You've earned it, and I hope you all goes well in your new profession:mcool:

[Windchaser]

J's Racing > Mugen

[BaLisTek]

dude windchaser... think you can help me figure out how to install this duct? I think I have an idea.. but having an idea and mugen parts don't float so well with me

[supreme]

dude windchaser... think you can help me figure out how to install this duct? I think I have an idea.. but having an idea and mugen parts don't float so well with me

you cut out the slot on the bumper, but leave the bottom part. then slide the rad duct in and i think its maybe drilled? or molding taped on.

[supreme]

J's Racing > Mugen

you are 100000000000000000000000000000000000% true.

[Windchaser]

dude windchaser... think you can help me figure out how to install this duct? I think I have an idea.. but having an idea and mugen parts don't float so well with me

J's Racing > Mugen :lol:

JK. There should be measurements on the instruction paper. Follow the measurements, but make sure you use the right rotary blade. If it's a 5 speed dremel you are using, change the speed down to 2 for precise cutting. It should slip right in after you cut out the piece from the bumper. There is a bar that goes underneath the duct with double sided tape to keep it from hanging low. You also have to drill into the rebar to mount the other part of the duct.

It's really easy, but take your time on it.

[Godhand]

if i dont drop it i am going to get banned.

i didnt get a instruction paper. ALl i got was some bags of bolts/tape.. the duct and a back cf piece

[d-unit]

i didnt get a instruction paper. ALl i got was some bags of bolts/tape.. the duct and a back cf piece

measure the back end of the duct and then mark the exact size on your bumper and a cm smaller and work from there up.. that way you dont make too big of a hole and if your calculations are off you arent boned

[BaLisTek]

i think i'll just track down a 04-05 bumper first. Might as well be 100% satisfied right

I wanna steal THAT MUGEN GRILL and DUCK!!! (duct)!!!!

[CivicS]

nice mugen stuffs.....

[Blaine]

How hard is it to design a replica? :mmad::mmad:

[BaLisTek]

i'll update my members ride when i get my laundry list of parts on. My car is GHETTO right now:mmad:

[Strife]

Nice pick up, must be doing pretty well for yourself.

[jh604]

very nice stuff! love the car!

[frankdogg]

i have the instructions somewhere. i'll check.

[civictype_r04]

Why dose the carbon fiber on the rad. duct not look like it was laid stright.

[BaLisTek]

I don't kno why its slanted.. i guess the way it was laid. Main thing i noticed is how you can actually see through the weaves of the cf vs say like seibon in which you couldn't

[Windchaser]

Why dose the carbon fiber on the rad. duct not look like it was laid stright.

It's dry carbon. Dry carbon is laid differently because it doesn't have the FRP base like the CF parts you see from Seibon and VIS.

[v1c10us]

Sorry, but I would rather pay more for a dry carbon piece than some retarded FRP or Aluminum shit. For Mugen, you have to pay the price.

for real.
my friend got a one off dry carbon hood for his del sol and it weighs 8 pounds(thats a large hood too)
it isnt shiny, its lighter than shit, its STIFF, my carbon fiber hood you can dent with your hand and if you knock on it it dents.
It still flexes but its much stiffer, and the weaves are so perfect its not even funny.

Its just a shame the hood was like 1100 bucks.
Dry carbon is where its at but the cost outweighs the demand.

[RedSiBaron]

yup...single layer of dry car around foam can take 300psi across the fibers before material composite failure...trust me, ive done the tests on a carbon wing haha

3 layers, your so set, i want to say 3 straight layers with no support layer will take atleast 1200psi...its an exponential strength curve as you add heat curing and more layers...only issue is that when you add more heat for curing, though the strength curve goes up, the flexibility goes down and so do the deflection amount allowable before material memory failure, which means a failure of the material...failure occurs when something flexes and will not return to the same shape or position it occupied before...

cant wait to lay up my dry carbon panels for the race car...soooo much mold work to do though :mcry:

[ts ep3]

nice how much you get them for?

[BaLisTek]

t00 much:mredface:

but thats to be expected. I'm trying to forget what I paid. I'll let you know when i feel better about the purchase

[IWASHATCHED]

Wait until they see the other goodies, yO!
