Not cheap bro...but spoon one is really sexy..i got quoted the same price as well for it...at sunway...maybe if we go and install it together we could actually get a cheaper price for it.. tongue.gif

If it is 6K plus, it should be coming from JC racing at Sunway biggrin.gif
Just a note, do you guys know the size of the disc that JC have paired with the Spoon calipers? I have seen Spoon calipers which have not matched well with the disc (300mm), thus the brake pads only grips 70% of the disc area, leaving a rusted part of the disc which the brake pads never touch (close to the hub)....
The problem with Spoon calipers is that they don't package it with the disc as a factory set, thus relying on a lot of plug-and-play method. Even inside Hyper Rev CRZ magazine, they do not sell together as a set. cry.gif

A tuning magazine specifically for Japanese cars (not all, but major tune-able ones). One of the magazines to look for if you wish to know what parts are available for your car.

Yes bingo it's JC racing..but from what i heard that they're selling the entire set which comes with the disc as well..as for whether it fits perfectly that is the question, somehow i would not take the risk paying so much for brakes that only grips 70%....that is the reason why i'm going for brembo instead.. icon_rolleyes.gif

If JC is selling in a set, i would think that they have paired it correctly. The CRZ that I saw was already on the street, not sure where did the person install that Spoon kit.
For your brembos, where did u get them from? Was it a kit complete with disc etc?

Area51SE, SurFerZ, the hillassist works even without the handbrakes pulled. right?

QUOTE(SurFerZ @ Jan 23 2013, 09:43 AM)
Hmm for me most of the times whenever i'm just hitting on the brakes instead of the handbrake sadly it doesn't..try referring to the honda user's manual..it's stated that hill assist only works whenever the handbrake is pulled if i'm not mistaken..i might be wrong though..

Yeap I've the same situation with SurfeZ too...Will have to pull the handbrakes. Using foot brakes instead of handbrake the car would still roll back.

There is a CRZ running with that blue Spoon colour already tongue.gif
From the looks of the engine bay, I can see the Spoon throttle body and they swapped in a GE8 head & intake plenum (due to the missing EGR). Probably something I might want to look into smile.gif
One thing that interest me a lot is the side mirror... looks dem chun

the one that I've notice there's 3 units that are already on blue.. tongue.gif

- one with the yellow + blue (zombe)
- one is the matt candy blue metallic (zahir)
- one is baby sky blue (unknown)

most of them wrapped their cars.. and its not painted... currently i am browsing on a Jap website selling 2nd hand parts.. as for now there are no side mirrors to be found.. spoon aero mirrors are no longer in production.. unless we can custom made from the GE/GD series.. as we only need to remold the base of the mirrors..

there's frm one source that i can trust.. i was told that we can make a special order for those mirrors (direct frm JPN..) but takes 2-3 months to complete.. but haven't got the proper quote on the cost for that yet..

i am also planning to get the intake frm GE/GD.. but haven't really made my mind yet on that mod.. still need to do some homework on that..
