Burn-Up body kit now available at Taka Kaira

Look [URL=http://www.takakaira.com/asp/template.asp?id=821&cat=1&prodID=JKkGhHhceDfbiEd]HERE[/URL] :D Very cool kit, although mighty spendy (as is everything on Taka Kaira)

Dammit! And I thought I'll keep that as a secret....
Burn-up kits are so popular in Japan Japanparts gave me a two month waiting period, not to mention 500 bucks to ship it over. TK's price is "cheap" compared to Japanparts. But then TK isn't very trustworthy according to some ppl on this board.
Burn-up's WRC replica is the best though, hands down. Makes Subaru Giken's kit look like Wings West :lol:
That front bumper is a one piece design that extends into the engine bay serving as a radiator cover :eek:
edit: oh yeah, let's not forget about the 2100 dollar dry carbon wrc lights replica.

i have bought from takakaira in the past and had no problems with the order or the shipping time - the part was back ordered and shipped the day they promised it and was at my door a few days later - actually quicker than most parts i order from US shops.
i didnt get any big body kit/massive packages though.

The headlights have to go with that bumper, right? Otherwise it will lose the signals:confused:

I think so. The burn-up front bumper can fit to stock body.
Yes the turn signals are made by hella and works with that headlight. But if you buy the cc-b's headlight, that comes with a turn signal already so you'll have two :)
Maybe we should get a group buy.....you should see the number of GD's with that kit in Japan...

It looks like that would certainly require a lightweight front bumper beam to fit, correct?
Any idea if it could be installed without the little round turnsignal? (without the dry carbon light kit it's not needed)

| NeoGeo | 09-17-2003 02:34 PM |
Blue: it's a wide fender, but it can be fitted to a normal WRX, or the other way around: normal WRX can use all other parts and skip the fender.
Force: not sure about the beam...usually the J-spec one is needed if you want a FMIC, but bumpers might work with the USDM one. The turn signal is there for authenticity, if you don't install it it'll just be a blank hole. A lot of JDM ppl use JDM headlights and simply don't connect the turn signal.

Vos: by prodrive bumper are you talking about the prodrive UK type? That's just a regular WRX OE bumper with two very big fog light covers that say STi :) If you don't want the radiator part, you can always chop it off :lol:
02R6: you're almost there! :)
Fry: you can get that from burn-up, but no one in the US carries them. Japanparts and TakaKaira can get them to you, although at double the Japanese price.
That sideskirt actually works b/c it's an exact replica of the WRC car. Unlike others on the market, it's very wide, extends out beyond the wheels to control airflow.
Funny thing is, Burn-up kits are very reasonably priced (well other than the headlights), but to get it here takes the price up by two folds.

| NeoGeo | 09-18-2003 11:06 AM |
Well the Japan street price is shown by Ikonosian on the very first post link. It's via TaikaKaira and it's a close conversion from Japanese Yen. Burn up price is very reasonable (900 dollars for the full 1 piece bumper), it's cheaper than Subaru Giken (which is a POS compared to the Burn up quality), yet we Americans can get Subaru Giken from anywhere (vivid? :)) but no one carries the better yet cheaper one, Burn up.
Here's the Burn up link with all their customer's rides:
[URL=http://burn-up.vis.ne.jp/nai_ru/cgi-bin/users/clip.cgi]http://burn-up.vis.ne.jp/nai_ru/cgi-bin/users/clip.cgi[/URL]
It's all in Japanese, but I trust you can read the chassis code and go from there :)
Just FYI: Japanparts gave me a quote of 2000 dollars for that one piece bumper, painted and shipped to my door. In Japan that's more like 1200 dollars painted. TaikaKaira has better pricing, and sea-shipping but I never bought from them before, and I'm hesitant to give them a "1500 dollar" try.

The prodrive I am talking about is the one that looks exactly like that without the blinkers.
But I like the idea of having four blinkers since I want EDMs... And I figure the body shop who paints can lop the radiator cover off..

p.s. I don't know the prodrive one w/o the blinkers...if you can show me a pic that'll be great. I do know that Burn-up replicate the bumper from a specific year's WRC car. So on swrt.com it's corresponding to the 2001 car, which has blinkers..

Yeah that's the "Prodrive UK" one I was talking about. If you look at it closely, you'll see that it's just the WRX OE bumper but with a slight modification to accept the wrap-around fog light covers. You'll see that the middle bumper is exactly the same as OE, and you can even see the little cover of the front tow eye.
In addition, that's only the bumper, you'll still need to buy that grill to get the WRC look. It's far from a "replica" of the WRC bumper, which is one piece, not to mention numerous other details.
It's a nice piece, but IMO not worth the price: Rallispec charges 1700 painted, other places charges 1500 or so.

okay I'm going to bring this thread up again: it's POSSIBLE (no garantee what's so ever) that I can get this Burn-Up bumper through some vendors here. Would there be any interest in Burn-Up's WRC conversion products? Maybe (I say maybe) it'll be a bit cheaper if we bring a number of their products over from Japan.
No promises on anything, just gauging interests.
I can provide more links/info if there's enough interest.

Would there be any interest in Burn-Up's WRC conversion products? Maybe (I say maybe) it'll be a bit cheaper if we bring a number of their products over from Japan.
No promises on anything, just gauging interests.
I can provide more links/info if there's enough interest. [/B][/QUOTE]
I'd be highly interested in the 02 kit :D

Okay I'm looking into it....anybody else interested?
| NeoGeo | 09-23-2003 12:52 PM |
Okay I pm-ed some of you who seem to be interested.

I'd of course be interested. Looks like my insurance isn't going to pay for a new bumper, but I would still be interested in this since I like the style.

Okay I'll put you down for a bumper :)
Suppose this thing does come through, it'll probably go by sea due to the size of the order. So it'll take a while.
Also all parts will come in fiberglass with white gel-coat, just FYI.
Here's a link of a Japanese dude who installed the kit. He gave subaru giken 3 stars, Burn-up 5. Yes he had enough $$ to "shop and compare" ;)

That is one awesome looking kit! :eek: Now I know what mine could look like, as my WRX is white, also :D

Can you tell which one's Subaru Giken? which one's Burn-up? and which one's Prodrive UK? ;)

Just found THE most hilarious picture of all:

This bumper cost over 1k and probably will take half a year to get over here...assuming everything works out, and in Japan they're selling it like some cheap altezzas outside a NOPI store :lol: :lol:

wow... thats crazy.
that would explain why they're so popular over there.
I'm unsure why the company that makes them doesn't market them over in the US and acutally distribute them. I'm sure there would be enough market for that, along with the rest of there lineup. it would also bring down the cost of shipping drastically.

If they truly are THAT easy to pick up in Japan, I will make that my "mission imperative" when I go there later this year. :D
| TypeRex | 09-25-2003 01:34 PM |
Argh ... kit still needs the WRC wide rear fenders + bumper.
| imminence | 09-25-2003 02:16 PM |
Checked with Taka Kaira, and they informed me that they do not carry the Burn Up kit for the 04 Impreza. :(
| westy66 | 09-26-2003 09:00 AM |
i WANT that front bumper... :eek:
| NeoGeo | 09-30-2003 02:11 PM |
For everyone who expressed interest in this kit: I'm still checking prices...apparently it'll take a while dealing with the Japanese supplier, so just hang in there.

"Takeing a while" is pretty common when trying to source parts from japan. I'm in no hurry. Just got my Defi gauges and my sti lateral links and trailing arms. I don't think i wanna install the bumper until after winter anyways. So i'm cool.
