Japanese EF Clubs/Shops

[C-Rex]

Was looking through these last night though some of ye might like to see them...
I knew there was a few shops and blogs in Japan still running/modifying EF/AG Civics and CRXs but they are usually very hard to find cause they are not well known outside of Japan..

These are some of them and Ill try get up pics, links and some info on each place later

This shop mainly deals in track/race cars EF8/9 and EG6s
Based near Osaka Japan
Put this into google maps to see exactly where it is..
846 Sakurai City, Nara Prefecture
No street view but you can see photos from nearby and the well known round tower building across the road that can be seen in most of their car for sale pics..

Here is one such car which has ended up in this country


Typical interior shot thats found in their cars from the one above


This car is now owned by a member on here Daryl and is used in the Irish Time Attack[8D]

Appart from sales they build cars and have some custom made bits for EFs.. One of the most outragous parts is there centre exit straight through exhaust in EF/EG/EK fitment







Heres a little sound clip of it[8)]

This "research" starded sunday evening while I enjoyed a nice hangover, just posted up today then while it rained on my tools outside in the yard

[jtswift_2000]

Nice find.

That straight through pipe is the business. Sweet sound off it too.

[general lee]

Is it lower than a normal exhaust ststem as it doesn't follow the same path under the car?? at least near the fuel tank anyway...

[C-Rex]

Yea should be a bit lower alright but they are only really on track cars so shouldnt matter so much.. Would like to see if they are any gains though doubt they would work as well as other more normal setups

[C-Rex]

Found another place

www.trybox.net

These do some very nice custom bits too, very expensive though!!
One of there cars a CRX is one of the fastest FF cars in South Japan apparently.. Here it is racing in the Kanjo class at Historix in Suzuka Japan this year.
