Default another j's question

In all the BMIs i have all the J's racing cars use a mugen header. If the J's header is so good with extra large tubing, why doesn't the J's race car use it? Just curious

I was unaware that they are currently not using a J's header....

Have you checked the date of the BMI video you're watching with the release date of the J's header? Perhaps it was filmed before the J's unit was released?

Well in the Hot Version DVD Tuner Battle Royale it says the J's car uses a mugen header end the release date on that dvd is Aug. 31, 2005. I would say that is pretty current. It is the most current dvd with the J's s2000 in it that I know of.

Plus even if the production date on the DVD was august, it is tough to tell if that segment was shot in August (if its anything like magazines it was shot WAY before hand).

Besides, who knows if they even got the header right in the first place (again if they're anything like the rags in the US, they didn't) =P

By the way I have some photographs of all the J's headers that were created until they decided the final version.

If I could only find them... (searching in progress).

They use the J's header currently. Video was shot early 2005 when they were using the Mugen..
