I thought so too, but then I saw his car here:

http://www.importfan.com/product.asp?0=360&1=375&3=1461

Makes me wonder if it is a knockoff kit, or if that site is using his pic without permission?

That kit is a real C-West kit. The reason why i know is that I was with the guys form MotoRex at HIN and they do recognize Nick as having a real C-West kit.

We even took pictures of his car with the MotorRex models. MotoRex knows which cars are real and fake. You don't spend that kinda money without MotoRex knowing what supplier the kit was sent to and what custonmer bought it.

I don't think it would be a knockoff.. you wouldn't put "cwest" logos all over your car if u had a knockoff.. i don't think Cwestrx7 is that ricey..

kelrx7r1-

Actually sites use cars without permission alot. Two sites have used my car and each time I requested that they remove the image of my car promoting their products.

Why do people call knock-offs "replicas"? Someone should check the dictionary entries of those two words and stop flowering up knock-offs like they're better than an unauthorized copy. Try http://www.dictionary.com and see which word fits the picture better.

Well VIS told me to talk to my lawyer those FOB bastards!!!!! Said that it is their image since they took the pictures. I was like WTF it's my car *******! So if anyone knows a real legal thing i can throw at them. Unfourtunately I will have to go through the legal route with them.

The site is www.visracing.com it's the cobalt kit for the rx-7. And my car has real KS stuff not their copy on it.

I had better luck then RotaryKnight. I spoke to Importfan and requested for them to take the pics off the site. They were really cool about it and said that's no problem. Good luck RotaryKnight with VIS.
