Default vision R spec 4-1 header?

I did a search and found nothing. Has anyone had any experience with this header or know of the company?

Thanks
Looks comparable to JDM DC 4-1, although not too sure of how low it hangs.

I know for a fact that the Vision front and rear strut braces for the ITR is identical to Spoon braces except it doesnt have 'spoon' stamped on one of the mounting brackets...from what i have heard their products are very very good quality and as far as i know theyre a Honda only parts manufacturer like spoon or mugen...if you check out the perfromance section on http://www.takakaira.com and go to Vision they only list parts for hondas.

Where did you find it for sale???

Just curious if anybody has any idea of how low this header hangs? I've heard stories of JDM DC 4-1s being damaged even JDM OEMs due to minimal ground clearances.

Everyone should know that Spoon doesn't really make any of their own products. Their side mirrors are Vision products, the exhaust is oh so similar, the exhaust manifolds oh so similar. They like to have their name put on other's people's products and then charge a great premium which people pay because of that pretty blue color and the name. Don't get me wrong, the products are good, just not made by Spoon.

Vision was created by a group of Auto enthusiasts years back. And they also used to, maybe still do make parts for the Trueno and Levin (hachiroku).

Vision products are made by a pretty large company that makes spoon buddy club mugen and few other brands products, I would get DC's and save a few bucks

mugen is independent. spoon and vision may be the same, but not mugen. all of it's good stuff though.

Chris (DC5Rk20A) is right; Vision has been around for a while. Here is their website in case you haven't seen it:

"mugen is independent. spoon and vision may be the same, but not mugen. all of it's good stuff though."

your missing the point, while Mugen can make limited runs of exhausts they cannot manufacture all of there own parts. lots and lots of tuners offer the same exact item in just different colors

IE Buddy Club QF2, Speedmaster SM047, APC's ICON's SSR Type C cast Blacks racing.... ect

that same company makes 90% of all the forged lugs, most of visions stuff spoon parts lost of mugen lots of Buddy club

ALL in a big *** factory in Taiwan

if you feel bad about overpaying, think about ATS FD owners finding out that those are stock Isuzu parts they can buy for 1/3 the price
