Actually, the price might be around $150 from the dealer, and $100 from the plant.

Will check local price this wkend

driftrunsir: dude, you got ripped! Pretty sure i can get those stuff you bought cheaper.

a 4g63 from Japan will cost around $1000 with tranny here in banawe. I just asked last wkend ...

haha yeah i know it was a bit pricey alot of the guys from club mitsu ph told me so...but hell if you consider the prices here in the US vs. the price i bought them at in the phils it was a hell of a deal! JDM EVO headlights all 4pcs. main lens and corner lights are close to give or take 700!!!!

as quoted from this link:
http://www.wholesalehyperformance.co...ekitspage.html

and the 5Zigen fireball exhaust is not available here in the US! and full catback kits usually cost 500-800! depending on brand and quality! etc. etc. so $100 for the whole system was a steal! usually 100 would only get me a really cheap imitation exhaust canister only!

Dude, the plant is not far off. Might be even closer to your Manila relatives, depending where they are located. Its in the southern part of manila. Banawe is in the Northern side.

Sure, i'll check the prices here locally. I want to weight them down myself.

driftrunsir: dude, you the guy who turned a lancer taxi here into "Evo" turbo? Complete with Fast n the furious green paint with pointing man?

hmmm, this is sounding to be a good business opportunity.

Will check how much to ship the wheels to the US.

Anybody want to count how many guys will consider getting their rota's from me, given that shipping wont jack-up the price too much?

if you can do it without having the shipping cost so much then you can count me in for atleast 1 set...if the deal is really good i will let my friends know and they will most likely jump in on it as well.

ok, will work on this ASAP. Hope to get the figures by next week.

Need the weekend to check shipping and visit the plant.

Lets help each other out - profit I get from this would go straight into modding my car.

Oh yeah, lets also expand this to JDM parts you want me to check out here.

And guys, put the models that you want.

I'll try to get a factory brochure.

Depending on price/shipping I am interested in 17x8 or 17x9 Rotas. What Rota designs will correctly fit our Evos in 17 inch?

I have Rotas on my WRX and have been very happy with them. No problems whatsoever. Alot of the Subaru people are using Rotas.
