I said nothing about being replicas...I said KNOCK-OFFS...as in rims like the old corvettes had, where there was only one large spinner in the center instead of the lug nuts.....otherwise, what in the hell would TRUE knock-offs be--real fakes???

Technically, they're not knock-off's. They're center-drive. Knock-off's typically have the little three sided spinner in the middle (like the center-drives) that you would hit with a soft lead hammer, hence the term "knock-off".

That being said, I like the car. It looks a little "period", but these cars were made in the late 80's.

Nice clean car.
I have the exact wing in stock used, Authentic Re-Ameniya. Was gonna mount it on my car but I'm changing plans. Any of you guys interested send me a PM or email me at Racingkakimoto@hotmail.com
I want 190US for it.

what do you mean by knockoff? knockoff means replica right?
They're genuine Modena rims. You know Modena right? They make wheels for Ferrari F40 and other supercars as well.

Guys, saying "RE" is just like saying rotary here. Most of the rotary shops in Japan have "RE" in their name. Its the Amemiya that stands apart from the others


Anyways, decent kit I supposed. I like the spoiler. Hate the rims and the bolted on lexan covers.

First of all the original poster is wrong that front kit is the R-MAGIC kit i have it but i didn't put the front on because it is ugly.The side skirts on both cars are just 89-91 s5 skirts and both wings are RE-A's, have a great day, o and the new RE-A front is 200% better looking.

the long pieces of lexan make the car look sad... it should be a happy car, since its an FC, with popups. Popups are so happy

Dude you have no idea of what your talking about RE Amemiya is the **** ! I have never heard of any one on this forum say the RE kit is ugly. You must have some real bad taste.

You know what I find really funny...


Some guy posts a couple pics of an FC with an "RE Kit".
Everybody drools over it. Says what great kits RE makes. OMG RE > GOD!
Then they come to find out that the only thing RE on the car is the wing...

Sounds like a lot of people are just after the name...
