Just wondering how many guys are using brake ducts on thier 99spec front end and if not is it obvious you don't hav ethem in? does it look ugly? any feed back?

 

?

 

I have it on both of my cars. Yes, its abvious. If you look at the lip and see the ground.

I'll be making these for the 93+ cars out of fiber glass.

The real 99 ducts require 99 underbelly.

 

im hoping to convert to a 99 bumper in the next couple weeks, so keep me updated on the ducts herblenny!

Thanks, Mike

 

Found not show as bad if RX-7 store would ship me my front lip god #$@&*$^@#

Hehe been waiting over a month now..

::

Soon winter will be here...

 

i have them and there perfect i just need 99belly ban and oilcooler ducts.........direct me to where to pick them up

 

Mike, I dropped them off last night and they are going to make a set in 2-3 weeks. I have to test fit it on my 93 w/93 belly pan and see if it going to work or not.

I'm waiting on them too. I bought a set and somehow I ended up with 2 of the same side.

 

thanks so i guess i will order those

just need to find out where i can get the underbelly

 

Good luck on the underbelly.. They aren't cheap and took forever for me to get. But that was couple of years ago..

 

maybe i will call cork sport and see what they can do..as i will need that..since they can get everythin else 99spec i can't see why they can't get that?

 

They can..

 

as i just found out from Ryan at corksport yep so we now know where we can get the underbellys!

 

I can have underbellys in 2 days and they're not that expensive.

Why did you go with 99 spec? Did you receive the bumper yet?

 

What did Corksport and RX7Store quote on the 99 bellys?

I also added a set of R Magic oil cooler ducts. They are similar to the 93-95 ducts, but are sized to fit the 99 bumper.




Im not here to debate weather you can use your old belly pan & reinforcement. Many swear by it to "save" a couple of bucks.

Nothing looks more tackey than a body kit with ducts & scoops the lead to nowhere. Whats the point of brake ducts in the front lip if they end 2 feet in fron of the brake? Plus when you veiw your car from the front & see the ground just behind the bumper??

I published the "available" parts form Mazda Motor Sports & R Magic. I didn't include the combination lights, bumper skin or fog lights.

This is what I have purchased & installed on my car.

 

^^I'm with you. I don't understand how people can just buy the skin and slap it on. If you're going to do it, do it right and buy all the extra peices that complete the 99 front end. Just my .02

^ my car, no brake ducts. (warning.. really big effin picture, and too lazy to resize)

i'll get them eventually, but you cant really even tell theyre not there.. and my car runs without them.. not to mention my turbos are dying and my motor has ~87k miles on it.

theyre on my list of things to buy, just not very high up on it.

 

i dunno much about 99 spec stuff, but ducks in your bumper can't be a good sign

 

I didn't buy and install the '99 spec brake ducts because I am considering fabricating something a little better. Maybe something similar to John Magnuson's setup, but a little better looking (sorry lol).

 

For those interested in the 99 undertray, its $99 and there are 2 in stock.

Jason

 

So the 93-98 undertray will not work with the 99 cover?

 

Good question. I would say in the past 3 years I have sold one 99 undertray. Im not sure if people are modifying the stock tray or just taking it off. I will be installing a 99 bumper tomorrow and will check if the stock tray works.

jason, any word on my Flyin' M emblems???

 

I just talked with them about the emblems and they wont be in until the 9th. Same time that the other side of the 99 spec chin spoilers will be in, for those waiting.
