That looks more like a functional race wing. I like it. Do you know the price? Or who is selling it?

Hmm...I'm not sure if I like it or not, yet. The carbon fiber piece looks kinda like a giant wiper blade:rolleyes: . I'd like to see a side view.

Is it the wing flap that is adjustable, or the whole main plane? That is why it looks like a functional race wing. Normally you would adjust the wing flap to increase or decrease rear downforce. Not that a street drive version of our cars would really benefit that much from rear downforce, but it looks to be patterned after a race wing Kit99bar.

Its not about the wing but someone clarify for me plz....i noticed that the back of the kaminari kit thats posted only has 1 exhaust outlet........i've always been unsure about this because i always see pics of celicas with 2 muffler outlets and only 1 used.......so ...do they sell the rear bumper with 1 or 2 exhaust outlets.....or do they make that an option to choose????:confused: :confused: :confused: any help appreciated

Just wondering - does that wing bolt to the stock holes?

Looks like it might with the large wedges under the sides - if so - I'm so there. :)

Furies... the first rear bumper that came out was made of hand-laid fiberglass and came with 2 exhaust holes... later on they made a plug for the left exhaust out for people that didn't want dual exhausts... now they just came out with the urethane rear bumper.. that one's on my car and comes with only one exhaust output :D hope that helped :)

Hey are the taillights on the car jsut normal redded out? cause they seem to have a blackish tint to them and i want em :)
any info would be much appreashiated...nice wing also but think anyother colours other than carbon fiber would look better with the silver cal.

trdazn
01-08-2002, 11:54 PM
is that a different rear bumper? cause didn't the other have a second exhaust hole. Are the taillights dipped red? Looks good.

dang it is nice.. personally it looks better than RMM.. but
the price is kinda rediculous... well if quality is considered...guess not but for poor ricers like meeh... even if i wanted one... it would take me 4eva 2 get it......by the way how much is it going for ?

im suprised i dont think anyone has asked this yet..whats yer pricing on it Pam??

racerette
01-09-2002, 03:02 PM
ok guys... here are the answers to your questions:

- 00CericaRuss - that center piece isn't going to fit in a TRD spoiler...

- hey larry... guess who makes RMM's wings for them... heehee

- pokgai ... it'll be available w/o carbon fiber, there's a fiberglass version

- aZnTrD2k... haven't talked 2 u in a while.. how u been.. yah kaminari is too busy and couldnt make it to the la auto show this year..

- X-EVIL-X... be kinda hard to screw the spoiler.. but whatever turns u on heeheee j/k :D

- skamikaze... logo is on wing bec. I'm sponsored... if people buy it they have to option to stick it on or not.. there are no screw holes behind that sticker.. the middle part sits in between the stands w/no screws

-cbr600drm...it is a functional wing... creates real downforce... only the flap is adjustable, 4 ways... but they might plug up one or two and make it 2 way so people wouldn't go buck wild and tear off their trunks

-TaeMachine...thanks... I need to make that sticker bigger... every moron where I live is on the cell phone, even if I rev and make sure they read it .. it still doesn't help

-MaasNeotek.. it does bolt to the stock holes... plus add some 3m tape

-Illorn1... the taillights are candied out check out www.bodypros.com and click on custom work, then click on candy. it's waxable :)

-trdazn ... yup its the urethane bumper ... it only comes with one exhaust hole (the fibeglass still comes with 2 holes and a plug).. ok that sounded nasty... :P

no need for a pic of me ... I look like this ---> :silly

oh the wing wouldn't be available till maybe next month... price isn't available yet either... i'll let u guys know when I find out :D

Are your tailights legal? Have you ever been pulled over for them?

Dude...we all know about Irvine cops... :p

I remember her posting something about what she did with the taillights; I dunno if it's still in the fora archives or not.

Pam..if thats the truth and Kaminari does make the RMM wing..bastards :)..haha.. then tell em I want some $$ back for how the wing ****ed up my car.. it was built too low and it rubbed the fenders.. i just love how everything for the car is made by someone else then who sells it..

Hmm Racerette, so you are saying Kaminari makes Rmm's wings? Well I got this interesting email from RMM:

Kaminari does not design our kits, they are designed in-house by our staff.

Wow, look at the curvature of that wing. Looks like it makes some serious downforce. your car do wheelies at high speeds? :D

Also, DESIGNED and BUILT mean two different things. Besides, most things are not made by the people selling them. That's called subcontracting.

Argh!! I don't know, Rmm's stuff is pretty authentic though. And their wing came out a while ago compared to the Kaminari wing. Damn this sucks:mad:

TRD Exhausts are designed in-house... built by ...............GHAAAAAAAAAAAAASP:


BORLA

at least thats according to the TRD dude at my dealership.

They finally sold that 33K piece of **** TRD celica from 2000 ... they freaking got 29L for it. it was pimped though.. the central jersey people know which one i'm talking about. Definately not worth that much though it was all cosmetic plus the TRD exhaust.

Yes RMM designs their own kits, but they don't have the in house ability to mass produce the kits...in comes kaminari

i heard something close. not Borla but TRD doesnt make it themselves.. nor do they make most of the stuff they sell under the TRD name.. IE) springs.. made by eibach.
