I'm happy to see that they went with the same final drive ratio that I've been wanting to go with for months now. Even more confident about my decision.

So that parts list... if it has a dash under "suggested retail price," does that mean it won't be for sale any time soon (possibly ever)?

Are those Yen prices correct? And is the spoiler on the car the same as the one on the list? Because I can't imagine a GT wing like that only costing 320 bucks.

That's exactly what I was looking at. Trunk spoiler = the little lip one. The carbon fiber wing is unlisted.

You are most likely correct. I think the reason for this is the price. Not many people are willing dish out that kind of money for an 86. Although I would buy every single part there is to replicate the Griffon hahaaa.. (especially that gorgeous rear gt wing).

Does anyone know where the front vented hood is from? It doesn't state TRD Design so I assume its from a third party aftermarket company.

All of that weight reduction is to make up for the 1900 go-pros that are suctioned to that car.
