actually, i saw the other thread about the MS kit/oil cooler duct

and i wonder if these pieces are the ducts, because i have them since i get my ms kit install, and i thought those ducts will only be able to equipped if you dun have those fog lights

anyways, please tell me if this is the duct

 

ducts

 

great, thanks man
now i can start search a way to install this

i can't believe i have this sitting in my storage room instead of putting it in my car for so long

 

Those look like the stock ones ??

 

Aren't those the duct's that are on the stock bumper? My MS kit that i just installed last week came with plastic ducts...Those look like the rubber ducts that were origionally on the stock bumper, but if you have the MS kit, you are supposed to take them off..

 

yea, these are made with rubber

but, how do you get the ducts?
it just come with the kit, right?

 

Well it looks like you have the authentic kit...I can see your fog lights so you also have fog light brackets. To install the fog light brackets, you have to cut the duct in half, because the fog light bracket takes up the main "scoupe" of the duct. My wording may not be right but you know what I mean. The ducts come screwed into the authentic MS bumper, only uses 4 screws...And i'm not sure where you would buy the ducts...There is a guy selling the ducts and mesh for the MS bumper...but they might already be sold. Did your MS bumper not come with the plastic ducts?

 

those are the oem ducts, they don't go back on with an MS bumper

 

actually, i wasn't quite sure, since i got it installed in a body shop

 

got it thxs man

and i want to thxs everybody again for the information and the quick respond!!!
RX8club rocks!!!!

 

here's a real easy way to check if you have them.

go out and look at your car......

 

Apparently those 2 ducts are still on my car with the ms bumper installed, what would happen if I leave them on? Will my car overheat, sooner or later? I do notice that my cooling fan runs quite often, almost all the time whenever I drive my car, but I also have my plate on the center grill right in front of my MS CAI blocking a good amount of air intake, I suspect.

 

of course i did take a look at it
and there is none

what i was asking is that if the duct that sitting in my house the MS duct

 

where are you at?
if you have the cooling mod, it is normal ( my fan turn on all the time)

but if you dun have the cooling mod, may be you are running a little too hot

 

the ducts come on the ms bumper though.. they shouldn't have been separate pieces. i'm the one with the other oil cooler weirdness thread and have both the oem and ms ducts on and i'm hearing that i should take the original ones off.

 

No, I don't have the cooling mod. Would those 2 OEM ducts cause it to run hot. I'm located in central Canada, temperature in summer is around 25C to 35C and I usually drive my car in city traffic. Would removing those ducts help to bring down the temperature?

 

are they blocking the oil coolers like mine are? see my pics in a recent thread

 

Dondo, the ducts in this thread are OEM ducts. And the ducts in this thread is MS ducts.

I found this Japanese instruction posted by RK on the DIY section. By the illustration of the picture, the OEM ducts should be removed and replace with MS duct.

 

Yes, mine installed exactly like yours.

 

right, i'm gonna take mine off

 

Ok Everyone Listen Up!

Don't Leave the OEM(rubber) Ducts on if you have the MS bumper!!!!!!

 

I wish my bumper was a genius.

 

vv as he said

actually, i am not quite able to answer that for you, since our condition wasnt quite similiar. but i have been running without the duct for a year, and i have no problem at all...

 

how can you use the rb oil cooler screens without the rubber ducts?

 

my body shop too the rubber ducts out when they installed me MS front on, i also have the fog light brackets.
