Extreme low height might be illegal to some states( as I don't know every state's law and regulation), but you're not going to want to drive a car that low on the street. If you want to pass a speed bump, you will hear metal scraping from front to the rear. That's what everyone doesn't want to hear.

I just heard that Five Axis will release some detail on the kit they are developing + new wheel design.

well... aren't chops always a little more extreme than they need to be? hehe. I mean, the chop looks good, but realistically it'd have an inch or two of room under the car (hopefully more).

I got some words from Five Axis that they want me to pass on to our fellow members.
They want to know what kind of kit we want to see from them. Any opinion or construction criticism is always welcome.

I'm just a messenger.

Hahaha, I doubt they are able to make it looks like that.

I already asked them about that as well. Hopefully, they will release an add on kit that resemble of the FR-S concept. I also asked them which one they will make, wing or duck tail. When I hear from them, I will pass on here.

Five axis is selling kits? Or is this a one off?

They are developing a kit and new wheel design for FR-S. I think it's going to be an add on kit like TRD and Modelista. They want some feedback from us, so they help to make what we want.

blur · 01-24-2012, 09:59 PM

In that case

I vote for Afongartdesign's kit

(pics not showing up, too much effort to re-host lol)

Snoopyalien24 · 01-24-2012, 10:01 PM

Well then keep us informed, this seems pretty interesting.

i say: Similar to TRD japan version...EXCEPT on front fender. i say dont fill the gap where the front bumper flares out (to give that aggressive look). keep the flares and see what additional ground effects they can work around to bring out those flares....

honestly if that doesn't fly with the general consensus, i think most of can agree that a replica of the TRD version for japan would be perfect as well

MiguelAE86 · 01-24-2012, 10:39 PM

Ducktail!!! <3 cmon, if the AE86 can have a sexy ducktail, its little bro wants one too! lol
