Does anyone sell tubular K members, and upper/lower control arms?
-I see you guys asking for 1G versions, are they already mass-produced for us 2g guys? I've only ever seen one-offs.
I love the idea about the kunckles with the capability to bolt on stock evo brembos, but maybe there's cheaper and more plentiful sources for as-good performing calipers and rotors... like maybe from the domestic V8 realm?
I'd like some tools, not necessarily parts. I'd like to see a valve spring tool made to fit the 4G63 head, even if it's a modified version originally for another engine. Or how about an aftermarket version of the notorious crank sprocket tool that we can't get?

Traction bars for FWD 1Gs. Not sure if they make them for a 2G but it would be nice to have some additional bracing to help with drag racing. I know these are pretty easily available for Hondas/Acuras.
x1 I would love to see traction bars of some sort being made for FWD 1g and 2g's.
- 1G Tubular Front K-Member
- 1G Tubular Front Motor Mount Crossmember
- 1G Rear Tubular Crossmember
- 1G Tubular Rear Trailing Arms
- 1G Tubular Upper and Lower Control Arms
- 1G Tubular Front Control Arms
- 1G Carbon Fiber Front Fenders
- 1G 3.5" Turbo Back Exhaust
- 1G Aftermarket Gauge Replacements......I have seen a couple made but I would like to see a few premade pieces for the stick cluster
- 1G Electric Power Steering Pump Setup....like the pump from a MR2
The 3.5" exhaust was available from Buschur a few years back. He didn't make many, but they were reasonably priced. Something about fitment so he quit making them or something. I bought one used, it's loud as hell, but fits just fine.
+1 on all the tubular suspension pieces, I'll probably just make my own. I'd definitely like to see some front knuckles that mount up the EVO Brembos. The rears could be built into a custom hub assembly that goes with an entire rear tubular subframe ala Marco's 2G stuff.
- a butterfly brace like miatas get for the 1Ga, 1Gb and 2G, if im not mistaken and they're already around. These would be amazing for TA and AutoX. Here's the link for a pic: Flyin' Miata : Chassis : Stiffening : FM butterfly brace
- something like a 2-way or Fully Customizable LSD for the 1Ga and 1Gb
- carbon fibre front and rear diffusers
- c-pillar bar for the 1Ga and 1Gb, if there isn't one already
- maybe a clean widebody kit, or at least some blister fenders to widen the arcs for the 1Ga and 1Gb
Bolt on trunk battery box for full and honda sized batteries
Cheap lightweight rims that look similar to the 98+ Eclipse GST/GSX rims
+1 on radiator cooling plates
+1 on ram-air headlights
+1 on the rims, like 18X8.5 or9" for less than a grand...
affordable bolt in seat adapters.
a front bumper thats almost like stock, but all openings are bigger.
intake pipes that aren't ridiculously overpriced.(i may start selling my own).
2g fuel tank that allows you to mount 2 044 Bosch pumps internally or a baffled/sumped tank that would allow you to mount external dual pumps without all the current hasseles.
Which is always out of stock... Why even have them on your website if you can't actually sell them? Oh well!
I'd like to see a DSM performance parts store here in Iowa.
I'm sick of relying on the internet for my parts. If any vendor was interested in starting a store around here that'd be great, I'd be able to prove to you that there is a large amount of willing customers available here in the Des Moines, IA area.
- 1G Rear Upper and Lower Control Arms. Adjustable heim joint-mounted arms like the ones seen in these photos:
Again, strong enough for road racing and lighter than the factory piece.
I made these for my car for like $100 a pair, no need to go into production.
I would like to see a better looking 1G dash. I now some guys are running one out of a prostock cobalt and it looks great. But it requires a lot of work to fit right.
D.O.T approved harness that don't cost 150 apiece.
I have my center console remove right now and would like to keep it that way but the shifter looks ugly. I don't know if there would be a market for it but a shifter boot that covers from the knob to where it bolts to the floor.
