Hello Everyone,
I’ve wanted to create this thread for some time now but family life has simply taken over any spare time I have.
So let me start by thanking all of the enthusiasts for the positive feedback received on the R package. These comments make my sleepless nights during the design and development months well worth it.
I’d also like to thank those enthusiasts who have placed orders for any of the R package components. Your support is greatly appreciated.
The purpose of this thread is to provide information and support on the products and upgrades that have been installed onto the Koup SXR. I will do my best to help with any questions but if I don’t answer right away, please be patient with me. I’d also like to kindly ask that we keep this thread clean.
I will be providing as many photos as possible during the build of the very first ‘production’ KOUP SX-R. This Koup will have all the production R components that everyone will be able to purchase including those that have been removed from the original list (front upper strut brace and Eibach lowering springs developed for this package).
This is not to be confused with the first KOUP SX-R (the Racing Red auto show car) with all the master prototype parts which many have seen in person already or online in various reviews. I also have a special bond with this car too as it’s the first Koup that received the R treatment for the world to see. My good friend KOUP SX-R is currently enjoying his ride along with the incredible sound system Pioneer has put together.
For those that have been fortunate enough not to have already met me, I am the designer of the R front skirts, R side skirts, R door sill plates, R rear lip spoiler, and the letter ‘R’. So if any of you dislike the styling of any of those components, I’m the one to blame....
My goal was to design components that took the current styling into the next level by enhancing features within its own form. Style, classiness yet smart were key objectives to the statement I wanted to portray. Tom Kearns and his Team at the California Design Studio created an outstanding body which I took immense pleasure working with.
I am proud to be a part of this community and I will offer as much information and support as I can.
Now for the exciting part....
