Guaging interest. Charge Speed!!!

[blu808]

We will be a distributor for Charge Speed within a few weeks. We were going to be just selling their subaru kits, but thought i would see if anyone with a silvia likes their products.

You can find their online catolog here.

They have really nice front fenders and widebody rear fenders as well for S13 and S14

[the head]

i really like the vented hood

[blu808]

THeir hoods are super nice as well.

Not feeling their bumpers, but id rock their side skirts and rear bumper.

[msaskin]

How much would a vented cf hood for an s13 silvia be.

Too robotic looking for my taste. Makes the car look fake and gives the impression that the car is acually a Transformer and is about to unfold into a porterpotty. I like very flush kits that look OEM but just stretched towards the ground, very smooth, and not holes and uneven boxy designs everywhere. Thats my opinion. Im sure 50% like that syle kit and Im sure 50% would not.

[blu808]

Snail: Ya kinda see your point. Wouldnt put it on my SILVIA!!! but im sure someone would like them, personal pref ya know.

Thx: I have no idea who this dumbass is.

Zenki S14 front lip is nice.


Why is this thread in the technical section???

Too wild for my taste and the quality leaves something to be desired (based on the chargespeed s13 i've seen). When i benchmark FRP products i like to use Vertex as my standard of excellence, a good example of good FRP is when Speedalliance's s14 got into a minor fender bender b4 the nissan festival. A vehicle had collided w/ the FRP wide fender and had only moderately splintered the paint and maybe made a small crack...because the vertex fender was so solidly made. Most other FRP fenders aren't able to duplicate that level of construction.

Charge speed isnt bad but just not durable enough for my tastes. I say the vendor should offer it and see if he gets any good sales if not just pull the product.

[tastyratz]

im planning on going silvia front once i get a big fat check coming to me and i love the chargespeed front end. if you can offer it to me cheaper than anyone else and can get or prove a history of a satisfied customer track then add me to the list

Vertex is very good but I think you are underestimating Charge Speed. Did you see the Pac Rim S13 w/ full Charge Speed kit crash into the wall going 60mph at D1? Granted the front bumper was totaly cracked but the fenders came out with only minor cracks. You can see how the fenders held up here:

just scroll to the bottom and you'll see the animated gif of the car crashing.

i think the kit is really good. its strong and it fits really good with out any modifications. the only thing i dont like is the large vent in front isn't as big as it looks. i'll show some pics later. but all in all i like charge speed.

how much can you get the kits for?

[AutoRnD]

ok guys.. we are starting to sell chargespeed.. so hit me up with a query of what you need.. i will hook you up with a great deal.

[BobbyBoy]

Some of the Chargespeed stuff came in, and I'll be using their fenders. I'll tell you guys this stuff is really high quality, I was very impressed and I used to work for a body kit manufacturng company. If anyone Norcal guys want to take a look at the stuff in person feel free to stop by the shop. I will post pics soon.

My friend has their front bumper and skirts. The bumper is kinda gay but the skirts are sweet.

[BobbyBoy]

Here are pics of the fenders, front 20mm wider silvia fenders, and rear 50mm fenders. They are taped on in the pics, but the fit is perfect.
