This product will be added into our website and you will be able to see more information about it. Currently, this a brand new product that was just developed during the summer of 2005. Beatrush, Japan is currently manufacturing these parts and they should be arriving in the U.S. by the end of the year. We just wanted to give you guys a sneak peak of what's coming out for the xA from Japan and answer any questions about this product and any other from Beatrush or C-ONE. Thank you.

All of the parts made by Beatrush are specific to fit each vehicle, so nothing is universal besides their oil caps and shift *****.

1. Explain- "enhances downside rectification at high speed"

2. How does that panel generate downforce?

3. How does covering the bottom of the engine compartment help the engine from overheating?

The quote from above came directly from Beatrush, Japan and so here's our explanation:

The underpanel is design to smooth out the air from the bottom at high speeds, which it results in less air turbulance thus producing better downforce. Moreover the design of the underpanel is made in such shape :

______/--------

The air from the front pushes down the underpanel and the air from the bottom pushes up, creating pressing between the two in which results in downforce at the front. Basically, your ride will bounce less and feel smoother from less air turbulance at the front. With more grip on the front wheels at high speeds.



Regarding questions #3, this underpanel increases cooling of the engine compare to the stock plastic. The special opening slits are designed to draw out heat from the engine compartment with the cold air coming from the front. Basically at high speeds, the cold air moving under the engine and from the front pulls & pushes the hot air from the engine bay, creating a suction from outside the undepanel through the opening of the slits. It basically circulates the air from the engine bay and prevents it from overheating. This is specially good for turbo vehicles.

For example:
"I use this same concept when I take my dog for a ride; I open all the windows slightly just enough to fit my hand and this will suck out all my dogs hairs, keeping my car hair free. " This works much better than having the windows fully open, since it will just make the dog's hair circulate inside the vehicle." This is kind of how it works with the front underpanel.

Not to sound like a fool or anything, but when these parts are available, will there be a US translated site? I just tried to look and have never been so confused in my life.

I found the under panel, and I like it. When it's available, i'll definitely take one. If I could see pictures of the strut tower bars and the chassis brace I read about in the other forum and I like the quality, i'll definitely take them too. If you can, could you please post a like to these items, so that I can see them? I'd appreciate it, or you can PM me with the links, either or. Thanks!!!

How easy is it to install/remove? When I change my oil, I'd like it to be a quick and easy operation.

^Changing the oil, its pretty easy with Beatrush underpanels. All you need to do is remove the 6 rear bolts to bring the panel down enough to change the oil. Also, installation for the underpanels is very straight foward, that requires no special skills.
