Nagisa Auto FC3S/FD3S Fender Braces

Miata_mx5 · 09-11-2009, 02:29 AM

Trying to drum up interest to see if I can get enough people interested in the Nagisa Auto fender braces for the FD3S and FC3S.

What they do: ""The Nagisa Auto Gachiri Support or "Super Fantastic Fender Brace" is responsible for increasing chassis rigidity. It also improves the connection between the wheel wells and the area directly forward of the front doors. Improving stiffness in this region of the chassis will result in better stability under hard braking and better steering response at high speed.

The Gachiri Support accomplishes this by creating a triangular shape which braces the fender area to reduce flexing. In passenger cars, this area between the front door and wheel well forms a "crumple zone," which crushes upon impact in case of a front-end collision. Overall, the crumple zone aids in safety in the event of a crash on public roads. However, this area is soft and flimsy because it's MADE to to be squashed easily compared to other parts of the chassis. In order to erase that shortcoming, Nagisa designed the Gachiri Support, which aids that soft area with sturdy bracing.

This part is for individuals who are interested in all-out performance with no compromises. And it benefits drivers using high-grip tires, such as drifters, and circuit racers.""

Spoken from personal experience, these do make a huge difference, Seen many people use them on Skyline GT-Rs, and other cars to make a huge difference with better driving dynamics on the track, and all around stiffness for daily use (less creaking, sagging when raising the car up, etc)

Prices will be $228 dollars to southern california for the FD Fender braces, and $218 for the FC ones.

Trying to take mainly local people, but everyone is welcome to join in.

-Buyer is responsible for shipping cost from Southern california to their house. I am willing to ship if paid for.

1. Phoenix7 - FC ready to paypal

2gslse · 09-12-2009, 02:18 PM

I have been wanting a set of these made for the FB body any chance of that happening?

Miata_mx5 · 09-12-2009, 02:41 PM

Unfortunately they only have it for the FC and FD. A local shop would have to engineer, make, and test them. As long as the braces are thick, and well triangulated, they should improve the handling.

2gslse · 09-12-2009, 02:56 PM

ok thanks anyway maybe i'll look into it this winter

EJayCe996 · 09-12-2009, 03:46 PM

I'm in.. I've been wanting these (as well as every other piece of chassis stiffening component for the FC)

Original post/price has been modified to reflect paypal/transaction fees. Price increase is very small.

EJayCe996 · 09-12-2009, 05:21 PM

oh, and is this in any way related to the FDNewbie GB on the club?

Miata_mx5 · 09-12-2009, 05:41 PM

He is helping me organize the group buy on the club, because i don't have the vendor fees to pay to throw on that forum.

But, i will be the one who is handling this group buy (paying the guys in japan, shipping the orders, and making sure gets stuff done as quickly as possible). I say this because i know some people may have had a sour taste in their mouth dealing with ramy, but I am sort of the backbone behind this group buy since i know the guys at Nagisa auto.

RockyZ · 09-12-2009, 08:15 PM

Definitely interested? How soon will you guys have these or do you guys already have these? I'd like to pick them up soon.

Miata_mx5 · 09-12-2009, 08:18 PM

It will probably take 1-2 months or so after the payment has been sent to japan.

The items need to be boxed, shipped to the shipping company and then will come by ocean container as it's the cheapest way to ship.

I just know these things take time because customs isn't quick about clearing things, and containers take a while to fill due to everything being more expensive.

Phoenix7 · 09-12-2009, 10:20 PM

if you're ready to pay, list up...I want these and the sooner it's paid the sooner we get them. Can you get anything else to take advantage of container?

WE3RX7 · 09-14-2009, 05:12 PM

1.)Phoenix7
2.)WE3RX7 (FC)

I would have purchased these through autornd, but you've got a better deal going

I can pay whenever needed...

2gslse, when they come in, I can bring them by and see how accurate they would be to an FB and where mods would be needed, maybe we can fab some for the FB project

Miata_mx5 · 09-14-2009, 11:22 PM

All payments can be sent to Concourse_Finish@yahoo.com

*Just a reminder, make sure you take paypal fees into consideration when sending.

Thanks.

Miata_mx5 · 09-16-2009, 09:18 AM

Bump.
