Hey!
I'm wondering if anybody else has seen the Top Fuel front lip on a USDM ITR?
I'll attach a picture of one I saw on an official Top Fuel site today.
Do you think it would fit our front end?
Also, does anybody have any experiece with their products? They manufacture a variety of products from intercoolers to turbo pistons! If so where did you get them here in North America?
Thanks for the help dudes.

 

Talk to Rboosted

their extermely pricey (sp), but you do pay for what you get!!

I'm not sure how to get the Top Fuel products in N.A....

 

You can have someone bring it back from a trip to Japan.

ilr, who is drooling over the titanium exhaust system for the DC2R

 

v spec from so. cali... pm mugeneg6 (gavin) he has the hook up

 

There is an article in the May 2002 issue of Super Street stating that Top Fuel will be opening up a shop in Orange County California in May 2002 and will be up and running by June.

shop is not gonna open anytime soon per Top Fuel owners statement. They were gonna do it however its still up in the air. Listening to Super Street is a bad idea.

Top Fuel parts are cool, however extreamly pricey. I have the Top Fuel lip, rear bumper, exhaust, etc... and they are all good. However the lip will scrap on everything even at stock ride height. They designed the body kit for racing and not for street driving. My lip is now 1yr old and is so scraped up that it now has hole on the bottom of it! Also the lip is like $400.
Oh yeah the lip you see is only for JDM fronts. They have a lip for US fronts however it will only fit on 97-below bumpers I believe. As for getting their stuff here in the US, you can from cetain shops however it takes forever. Also cetain engine products are impossbile to get here because Top Fuel marks all the parts and boxs with "Do not export outside Japan"!!! Check my earlier posts on how I got my exhaust into the US awhile back.

Rboosted,

I've looked at your page many a times in awe of your front end conversion, you did a fantastic job. The top fuel lip I guess will fit on a USDM itr.
I don't know how to load a picture so I'll attach the link right here:
http://www.pac-gate.co.jp/t-fuel/fuel-fs1.html
if you click on the civic/integra/crx purple button at the top there should be a picture of the UDSM with the lip on. What do you think?
Do you know off hand how much the intercooler or turbo pistons would be?
Being up in Canada I think the products are that much harder to find!

Let me know dudes.

PS-
Can someone explain to me how to load pictures?
I did a search on the site but everything that I found was of poor quality in explaining it.
Much appreciative.

The top fuel lip fits 94-97 USDM fronts, and sits lowwwwww. Most definitely needs sideskirts (like Mugen/WW...something thick) to make it complete. The lip looks hefty on the USDM front.

 

I own a 99 itr, how much of a problem would it be to make the lip fit?
How much of a difference is there between a 97 and a 99?

 

Looks good. I need a new lip. (cracked when I bought the car) but I'm trying to wait for someone, anyone to produce a CF lip. Anyone know of anything since the last time this came up.

 

How did you get the pic to post?

 

First you need to find a place that will host a picture for you AND supports image linking. The reason that you need to have a website that supports image linking is if you do not you will not see the picture, but instead a box with the name of the website you tried to use. AngelFire is notorious for this. I use Homestead, but I don't know if it is free anymore. Once you have "upped" your picture to that site you link to it be typing in the WHOLE address such as
["img]http://somehost.com/somepicture.jpg[/img"] (Remove quotes)

For future reference there is a test area that is a better place to address this kind of question.
