I never understood what's so enticing about dropping cash on oil caps and radiator caps that say mugen. Nice calipers and brakes though.

-Aki[hr]

of course, using the original oil caps and radiator caps should be OK, the original radiator caps is 1.1 bar and the mugen one is 1.3 bar, there is some difference, also, for the oil cap, the original is plastic, but the mugen is metal, seems more safety, the above is just in theory, the most important point for me is the outlook and branding

mmmm Maybe there is a lot of great mods on this car...but I don't feel all those colors...just my opinion....

But like Grey I love the calipers and I wonder which ones those are?

Thanks!!

Eric[hr]

The calipers are Spoon Sports four piston calipers, and I think they are around $2,000 list a pair.[hr]

In Hong Kong, it's aound US$1000 including labour

Hey buddy, your car is lookin good, but whats up with the yellow mud flaps. I know its the thing to do in asia right now, but man, if you are going to do mud flaps, make the same color as the car or leave them black. In my opinion, Bright yellow mudflaps+EBPcivic=

. Anyways, you got a good looking car. Later.

Car looks sweet as I said before and not to sure if someone ask is that a real mugen grill or just insert with the name I know it's probably original but just asking to make sure. The only thing are the mudflaps but they dont look that bad sick ride

The grill is a DIY modification on the Altezza grill, I just remove the plastic grill from the altezza grill and put a metal grill on it with a mugen plate. Just want to make it special, and it enabled more cold air to go in the DIY cold air intake.

it must be expensive crack he was smokin.......... if you knew anything about true JDM tuner parts, youd see they are by Takata.... the prefered harnesses of both Mugen, Spoon, and most other race teams in japan..... so go look at any of those race cars, youll see the same odd color combo..... bu those harnesses ar race spec and pricey.

Did anyone actually go to his members rides and hit the link to his page in Hong Kong? It was pretty interesting. Of course I couldn't read anything, but I managed to find my way to the members ride page and looked at all the cars. It's just cool to see the different style and everything. Check it out if you have time.
