Appearantly some parts that us DSM'ers are waiting for are being developed as we speak.
From the list of items (for 2G, but I quess 1G owners wouldn't mind seeing similar items being made for their model either
) I would like to see made for example:
Functional Front Splitter JNZ Tuning is appearantly developing some lightweight aero parts. Can't wait to see what they'll be releasing for sale!
Functional Rear Diffusor Again; JNZ Tuning is appearantly developing some lightweight aero parts. Can't wait to see what they'll be releasing for sale!
Billet Engine Mounts VIP Garage appearantly has these in the making. Hopefully these will be lighter than the original ones (so it actually falls under performance parts for which this thread is actually meant
). Bring them on VIP Garage!
And I'd like these items to be made aswell, but these (unfortunatly) are still waiting for a vendor to actually start developing these:
Brake Cooler Kit Some bolt on hard ABS plastic cooling parts would be nice.
Radiator Cooling Plate I can't believe no vendor is actually making these. Seems like a simple part to create. And since it shouldn't be to expensive to develop and make these, there should be quite a big market for them.
Six Speed Gearbox Possibly the best idea named here, but I'm afraid that we won't see these made due to the extensive research and costs involved in developing and making these and (since most DSM'ers are broke) the small amount of people who would actually purchase them.
Still hoping a company like ShepTrans will make these anyway! (As has been said before: They made a dogbox, which probably nobody was expecting to be made, so why not a six speed?
)
And last I would really like to see made (because it will save me the trouble of making it myself
):
Forced Air Ram in the 2Gb Intercooler Vent Location Yes, exactly as
wret made in the following thread:
DIY Ram Air Duct for Cold Air Intake
If possible made of a strong material like ABS plastic (though a carbon fiber one would be very nice too!
)
So the economic-rule of 'demand and you will be supplied' seems to be in affect. So in response to
Gamble97: If we keep on demanding these parts, there is a good chance a vendor will actually start supplying them!
I guess he tried on talk or on here but got hammered on pretty bad so he is fed up. I guess pm me or something, I can try to get you in touch with him if that is permitted. I weighed these things and the whole set knocks 15-16 lbs of the car. It is the same dude that is doing them for that Mavis guy so 11scdsm can probably help out too. )(Jason is his name) I don't think I can post pics but they are awesome. I must warn you to ask for them not painted because they look bad painted, good fabricator, bad painter. He has a post on the gvr4 forum for quite some time about them and finally started shipping out after like 2 years. 
i would love to see an OEM GSX carbon fiber spoiler( the big supra-like wing) all the carbon wings have that ###-ass fast and the furious metal shit. i just want a wing exactly like the GSX has but carbon fiber and made by a good company like seibon or carbon creations....... by the way, i hate VIS there hoods suck.
