WOOT Thank you VTEC DIRECT!

I'm really suprised that VTEC Direct (Based in UK) hasn't been mentioned much on this forum!

Adding this info from site:

VTEC Direct aren't just another importer of Japanese cars. We specialise in OEM and aftermarket parts too!

With a long history in the Japanese car scene from running car clubs, owning and tracking Mitsubishi Evo's, friends with Nissan Skyline's and more recently experience with the NSX we know what consumers expect from suppliers and what parts owners want. We pride ourselves on bringing the right products to the consumer at a price they can afford.

We aim to be one of the largest Honda parts suppliers in the UK by the close of 2008. With distribution rights for Super Taitec and Tracy Sports and over 5000 products available from key JDM and US brands all listed online we feel this a goal worth chasing and is achievable!

It has taken several months work to secure our fundamental and efficient parts network. We also have key brands coming through our supply network in the United States. We don't receive 2 boxes a week, we have large air freights (£40k) coming on a now weekly basis so in the unlikely event that we do have to order your parts specifically for your order you aren't waiting 2 months for your order to be shipped and then getting a nasty scare from HM customs! We take care of everything for you.

VTEC Direct also supply new and used JDM engines ranging from B18C, K20A and C32B all available with a 14 day lead time from payment.

The owner Barry is a Honda Enthusiast and his site Honda Tuning Heaven - VTEC Direct Ltd! is a specialist online mail order for Honda cars ONLY! (Tuning parts from Jun, Backyard special, Spoon, Mugen, Honda OEM, Silk road, Tanabe etc)

There are NO POA prices and Barry frequently provides offers to club members (FD2 owners, NSX, DC2, Civiclife etc).

Barry personally went to Japan to agree lines for selling and therefore can provide realistic prices and not tot worry about tax etc. On the site you can also see pictures from his visit to Spoon, Mugen, Tracy sports and various Japanese racing circuits.

I ordered a Mugen twinloop/Spoon B-pipe/Direct air flow pipe from Barry and the service was amazing! I didnt have to wait 3 months, pay customs etc. All items arrived via. Air freight and can be with you within 14 days of payment!

Exactly how mine arrived! Everything came in original packing and brand new!

Here's the link to the EK9 tuning parts page (EK9 Civic @ Honda Tuning Heaven - VTEC Direct Ltd! -) and it's all split into categories and all items have prices!

I'm not affiliated with VTEC Direct in anyway, but just a happy customer!

And I think forum members can benefit if Barry was to have a sellers sub-forum section on this forum and can provide EK9.org members with special discounts/help on sourcing tuning parts like he does for the FD2, Honda-tech, Beat, DC2/DC5, Accord R, Civiclife, NSXGB forums etc)

Just forgot to mention, that the spoon b pipe coupled with a Mugen twinloop sounds BEAUTIFUL! on my EK4

Anyways, enjoy browsing VTEC Direct, cause I've never come across a site that specializes in Honda Tuning parts to such a great extent as VTEC Direct and that provides a service that beats any performance/tuning mail order company on the Internet by a zillion miles!

Barry from vtec direct by FAR!

Just some weeks back, there was a thread about spoon sports europe, search for it and it should answer your question!

eg9kev check this link out - EG9 Civic @ Honda Tuning Heaven - VTEC Direct Ltd! -

If you can't find what you're after, email Barry (bazza) and he'll try finding what you're after!

I'm telling you man, his service is awesome!

Re: Thank you VTEC DIRECT!

Spoon Europe is a joke apparently as they dont know much about WHAT they sell..!

[take my word back... as ther has been a misanderstanding i guess... with Spoon Europe & Spoon Sports Europe! both r diff site dealt by differently]

maybe Spoon Sports Europe should act towards this other site... giving both sites a horrible reputation...
