Kouki JDM Rev3+ rear lights

Post by Scott Barton »

Who would be up for a BRAND NEW set of Jap spec Rev3+ rear lights including a choice of JDM amber corners or USDM red corners?
Will be around £200 shipped from Japan. If 2 or 3 sets, it might drive the price down a bit.

For info...'Kouki' is the term used for the later Jap spec Rev 3+ lights.

I have friends who live in Japan too, I should really find out what some stuff means too!!

EDIT: I see this term being used more often these days for rev3 lights too, I keep thinking (until now) that it's a Nissan thing :) Glad we cleared this up! :lol:

Zenki - basically means early/preceeding
Kouki - basically means late/after

and theres chuki that's inbetween the both of them.

none are car specific, or related to specific models etc. Just a japanese equivalent of saying early/late model thats used by JDM fan boys.

Yup. You get +10 JDM points if you use Zenki or Kouki in your build thread.

+5 for the correct use of JASMA, but -50 JDM points if you use JASMA as the brand name for your exhaust.

That is what I have been quoted for 1 set. Ordering more than 1 we will save on shipping charges. :thumleft:
