Got a new shipment of goodies boys's & girls. Due to the Price inflation of a lot of the Japanese spec products i thought this would be the best time to stock up...And thought this would be the end as well.. SInce im fortunate to have a few friends in this industry to look out for me and Give me a heads up on whats gonna get discontinued and whats gonna go up i thought I'd make this my goodbye to the EP build and just collect the parts I always wanted and say Goodbye..
SO first I called Kingmotorsports to get me this Cage for HIN. Scott then told me theres no way he could get it to me in less than a month since this is a oversize Item and would take over 2 months since it would sit on a boat. Then told me it wouldnt fit the USDM EP's w out major modifications. Laughed INside as i know all about fabrication since this is what kept me going.. SO thought Hmmm 2 months i cant go to this show w out having everything i wanted. Thought about it went to a few sources. Next thing got a text from my Mugen SOurce "I can get u the Cage in 2 weeks via air freight might cost you a arm and leg just give me the OK and it will get done" replied and he then Called M-tec Japan and was told that this would be the 1st Mugen Race Cage made by the Honda ONe Make Race Asscociation to be Sent to the U.S. so if ne of you have seen 1 please let me know so i can call them out on it. =)
Got a bunch of other crap but this is pretty much what made me start this thread again. Felt like it was the missing puzzle to my collection... and here it is.
None of this would be Possible w out the blessed few i have in this industry to Help me make this all work, Including Jeff Miller From JMI Motoring and Sean @ Status Racing. Waiting for the FIA'd 1 Of Kevlar seats to be made to accomadate the interior.

Making sure everything fits like it was made to fit like factory using all OEm components such as Headliner and Carpet... even if it meant cuttin up a 4digit roll cage...
