comes with the kit, i think it can just mount on the backside of the mounting bracket.

Yup you could probably use the bolt holes that go to the stock hub.

One thing that is quite crucial with the ducts is to have them as close to the disc as possible. air will take path of least resistance so if you make it easy for the air to just blow out between the hub and the disc it will go that way.

If you look at the first picture i put above from the outside of the hub you can see the gold disc. this sits inside the rotor where the rotor bell is and effectively seals the air coming through the duct to the inside of the rotor forcing the air to go up through the rotor vanes. and out the outer circumference of the rotor cooling it from the inside out.

If you have a 30mm gap between the end of the duct and the disc it wont be very effective. another issue with just blowing air onto the side of the disc is youll cool the inside of the disc only which can cause the disc to distort similar to what 1 piece disc does causing uneven pad wear and knockoff etc.

Those are just my observations, there may be some discrepancies.
Thats actually Wrong. JDM Evo 7 and 8 Manifolds do have the map sensor bung.
My 7 RS has it along with no EGR

Well maybe JDM is different than EUDM or UK cars as there was a lot of talk on LR that they use the evo 9 mani for speed density tunes because it was the only one that came with it.

eudm e9 cars did not have it and IIRC there was some difference in varoius MAP sensors used on JDM cars.. not all had the required range.. However, conversion to SD was never an issue. There is a nice spot to drill for bosch temp sensor (I think it is the leftover casting for JDM MAP sensor actually) and then we just add external GM map sensor.

Radial mounted calipers bolt down from the top anyway so youll need to have a bracket fabricated to bolt up to the factory location for them to fit unless this comes with the kit. Youll need to redesign your brake ducts i would imagine.

Here is some photos of my radial mounted AP brakes to give you an idea. you can see the oval cut out where my brake duct mounts up

Who made those brackets? They look pretty darn sweet!

They are 1 off custom pieces. I had the hub 3d scanned and a guy drew up the brackets to match the brakes

My JDM e7 also had a map sensor.

yeah but i think that's not as much supply chain as it is batch ordering. anyone who wants em you should order now lol
​​​​​​I'm not a fan of black wheels on white cars but somehow the wheel is growing on me. prefer the super bright silver like on the rpf1s but i figure i can powdercoat after a few years of beating

I never know if I'll even have my car in 8 mos. 😂
I recently went from black wheels to silver again. I have personal issues with black wheels, so am stoked. LOL
It's hard to find wheels these days that aren't black.

if so, damn - i spent quite a bit of time and money getting that set up.
That instruction insert was my fault lol. I slapped them between and called Jeff up showing the inside rotor bright blue because of rubbing only to find my mistake haha. But yes you put the duct on the outside of the bracket and it lines up nicely. Mind you this was the old AMS ducts but I think Binary's will be the same.

think i asked this before but can't recall - you can mix gas and e85 right? ie 4 gals of 89 + one of e85 = somewhere between 91-93?

not to do pulls on, just to burn off some on the pump map before i refill with pure pump

You can as long as you have injector scaling approximately for your ethanol percentage. Being off 15% either way from what you're dialed in for is no problem but you wouldnt want to go from E85 to like E40 without adjusting.
