News from TRD

This is the new silhouette sticker design from TRD. Sold in a set of 3 for JPY4500. 2 pieces (48 cm) for the side and 1 piece (30 cm) for the bonnet. Justin... latest one you know.. Only announced in Japan last week.




Anyway, I think we can modify this design slightly for our Wish wagon. Let me see if I have time to work on it.

The new TRD All Parts Catalogue 2006-2007 Vol. 15 is out now.



The table of contents is as follows:

  1. What's TRD

  2. CAR index

  3. EXTERIOR

  4. EXHAUST & ENGINE

  5. BRACE & SUSPENSION

  6. COMPETITION PARTS

  7. RUBBER INSULATOR

  8. DRIVE TRAIN

  9. ENGINE

  10. BRAKE

  11. DRIVING SUPPORT PARTS

  12. TRD Factory

  13. WebGarage


The catalogue contains details for all part for all cars, not just for Wish. If I recall correctly, it retails for JPY3000.



The 2007 calendar is also out and available for JPY2100. Limited to 3000 copies, but sadly, you won't see our beloved car in this one. No surprise actually.



Above is the new TRD limited edition transport case. Measures 75 X 35 X 35 cm. Made of ABS and weights only 4 kg. Price at JPY 29400. Not very practical. Like an extended make up case for ladies.

And finally, TRD is now offering cubic printed panels with logo as well. Earlier they offered scuff plates. Seems like TRD is starting to capitalise on the decorative market. Frankly speaking, I don't see why not. Tons of money to be made here.



I like the print offered actually. Nice!

Cheers,
