I personally think the APR looks way better.

Apr Ftw!

It seems that HKS requires some cutting of the bumper while APR is a direct bolt-on. it also looks like HKS is more aggressive looking because it is angled 'steeper' at the rear than the APR. I do like the fact that APR installed looks 'cleaner' than HKS. i would love to see pics of actual owners' cars as opposed to the manufacturers pics.

APR, hands down...the HKS looks like a 10 year old made it
f1mania 05-02-2006 03:18 PM

Couldn't find any of the APR piece that weren't on their cars though. A few people posted pics, but the links are dead now. :(

HKS Kansai FTW.I like how it goes far forward to the rear diff.APR seems to end early towards the front.

can anyone confirm that the jdm rear spats will fit with the hks kansai service rear diffuser?

i have the apr if you want to check it out.
STi-JDM 08-08-2007 01:42 PM

I have the APR on mine right now, and I wish I had the HKS one. it's hardly noticeable with the APR.
1meanrex 08-08-2007 01:48 PM

hks one is way hotter. thats what i'll be getting very soon.
WebMasterP 08-08-2007 01:50 PM

HKS one looks like it's more effective from a functional standpoint, but that's speculation from a visual standpoint.

yup i have heard this many times also from friends who has apr...if you are going to invest in a diffuser..you might as well go w. one that you can see and flaunt
dchou 08-08-2007 09:30 PM

I have the HKS one. Reason I went with HKS is that I can still get to the rear tow hook. The APR one looks like it blocks the tow hook. I frequent the track and if I need to be pulled out of a runoff I don't want to remove the rear diffuser to do so.
runwrxrun 08-08-2007 11:19 PM

go kansai for that aggressive noticeable look. go with apr if you want that mild subtle look. id go with the kansai because it looks just like what the evos rock in japan
hyp36rmax 08-08-2007 11:49 PM

I'd rock the HKS Kansai as it is very much functional and tested. However i have the APR on my EVO :) (HKS Kansai requires the JDM EVO7 Rear Bumper on my car..)

Subaru = HKS Kansai FTW!

If you want aggressive, get the Mature diffuser:

stieffekz 08-09-2007 12:51 AM

apr ftw
WikdRX 08-09-2007 08:20 AM

That Mature diffuser is a bit much if its a street car IMO
Knightmare69 08-09-2007 09:27 AM

Why the hell are these things so F'n expensive?!
Yoo Shin 08-09-2007 10:59 AM

[QUOTE=Knightmare69;18989907]Why the hell are these things so F'n expensive?![/QUOTE]

Because they're actually functional :lol:
quadtard 08-09-2007 11:24 AM

I've got the APR, and it looks agressive enough for me. But I like things to balance out well. I think the HKS is a bit much.
Scooby steve33 11-13-2007 04:12 PM

i have to ask, were can i get one of the "Mature" diffusers i have never seen them before them before and that looks amazing
The_Black_WRX 11-13-2007 04:48 PM

i have the APR and i am about to put the JDM rear spats on
the APR in subtle yet agressive for me i will say it dosent really stand out that much on a black car

xdrian 11-13-2007 05:47 PM

60mph plus, better mpg
BUCKman_02 11-13-2007 06:03 PM

HKS ftw, looks great!
vf15hammer 11-13-2007 07:28 PM

Here's my APR. Sorry for the cruddy pic. I agree, it is subtle and not too easy to install but I like it better than the stock diffuser...

Old thread but oh well..:rolleyes:
