placing the order for some short arm mirrors from craftsquare tomorrow :D ill be placing an order for 2 sets ;) one for me and another for someone on this forum :) its my way of helping out a fellow brother

the 60-90 day wait will kill us both :(

update.... VARIS HOOD

the hood is a pain in the *** to bring in... soooo much bs.... :shakes head: been kinda dormant on the forums lately i sent my oem powersteering reservior to cfe... i got tired of trying to solve the cf tank i have thats leaking right now... ive contemplated of making a SS one and burning to look titaniumish but...... nah lol sending it to cfe to get wrapped is wayyy easier and i know my car wont make noise no more because its oem...

and back to the hood dilemma... lord jesus ive been calling practically every freight forwarder on island for about 3 weeks and they all suck with bringing crap in from japan... ive been blown off about 3 times and its freaking giving me anxiety because they get my hopes up then boom.... never respond to emails or phone calls...

Everyone here seems to like to bring in stuff from back in the mainland only....I did finally find a reliable one and they are charging me an arm and a leg for shipping the hood on island a whooping 600 bucks.... :shakes head: ill arrange for pick up sometime end of next week.... hopefully all goes well the last thing i want is a cracked varis hood that would greatly suck

finally my top secret oil catch cans... guess what... post poned YET AGAIN but it SHOULD get shipped tomoro.... you would expect better service for the price you pay.... woooo :shakes head:

hope everyone else is doing good :tup:

GaleForce 05-23-2013 06:38 AM

The shipping/importing hassle suck, but the end results are worth it. That hood is going to look so good Jon!

KaienZ34 05-23-2013 05:28 PM

Yeah shipping internationally is always crazy.

Unique_Z 05-29-2013 07:22 AM

Dude, can you PM me the Top Secret oil catch cans images? Sounds tempting man!

:tup:

here is the message i got from top secret from fb through my friend yuki at daytona racing....

:(

Owner of Z
Besides I say Shibuki of TOPSECRET at the start
Thank you for an order this time
It takes long time, and a part is sorry
Daytona gives communication to me
I am sorry to change with the first appointed date of delivery
I prepare a good part
It is our mistake
I can prepare in another around one week
Wait
There is few it, but I send the others and present it
Thank you
Respect
TOPSECRET Shibuki

yet MORE waiting..... keep in mind its nearing 3 months wait.... and the 3weeks waiting for the intake brackets and 2 month wait time for titan cans have been prolonged :shakes head:

ill be ready to order the titan strut bar since im running out of top secret parts to buy lol ive been thinking about getting a top secret tow hook, the only thing thats scaring me is the wait time... i mean they told me 2 months for the catch cans, when i asked about the strut bar last time they said 2-3 months :( i can only imagine the true turn around time
im also and tryna make a top secret license plate frame... probably grab a cf one and etch top secret on it :happydance: should look kool.... better than that password jdm one i have right now...

and last but not least... my varis hood is getting picked up friday crosses fingers* :happydance: and it will be on its maiden voyage to guam

simota1 05-29-2013 11:41 PM

the day i finally inquire about the top secret strut bar.... i find out today that they stopped making it... i dunno if its temporary or permanent... son of a crap man :(

CarbonSignal 05-29-2013 11:53 PM

Dont have a car man, else would love to do it for you. Not promising but there is a guy he might bring it sometime end June, will update you then

simota1 05-30-2013 03:26 AM

:( just got confirmation... top secret strut bar is officially discontinued DAMN IT!!!!! :crying: here i go again on a safari to locate one... problem is i dont even know if anyone on this forum has one :(

Mr&Mrs 05-30-2013 03:36 AM

What the hell is going on with these JDM companies and their Ti parts? Looks like your in the same boat as me. Navyboy is checking for a Zele bar for me this weekend.

simota1 05-30-2013 03:45 AM

dude im really hoping that they dont end up pulling the plug on my catch cans i will be very mad if they do....

i dont know man... honestly it really sucks cuz it seems that majority of the jdm companies have stopped producing parts for our cars and now they are discontinuing some badass parts ..... i asked my contact to keep his eye open for a new or used top secret strut bar and zele strut :(

this forces me to rush getting the titan exhaust because i dont wanna be on the "discontinued" boat again... i get so much anxiety from that lol where is navyboy tryna find a zele strut for you :tup: at zele headquarters?

Mr&Mrs 05-30-2013 04:43 AM

Yeah he said he was going by there this weekend. Maybe they have a display model they can part with....yeah right.....but maybe he can get the word out that im looking for a used one. Have your friend keep me in mind for a Zele bar too :-)

Navyboy916 05-30-2013 06:26 AM

Jon, top secret is on my list to go to as well it's not far from JUN so I will see what they say. I have talked to them already so they are expecting me to. I will ask them bro

Is that fog light really 3-400 dollars?! It looks like we would have to modify the Amuse bumper for it to fit. Does look very sweet.

Navyboy916 06-01-2013 06:09 AM

Jon, I went by top secret today and they said they are not making it anymore cause it wasn't selling. The demand for it was not there.
