I am aware there are the side vents but there are no large center vents. I am also aware that people can cut a hole in their hood as you did. Obviously, some want a different solution than those that are out their and for those that cannot wait please feel to move on.

Also, I have not provided any comment regarding your posting or anyone else's that provide alternative solutions as I view those as positive and on topic. There is only one person that is really negative about the project and others are just anxious to see the product so they can make a decision. Nothing that has not happened with any other product that has been developed for our cars and day lighted on the forum. I remain optimistic and excited about the vents.

Will I be able to grate cheese on these hood vents?

DeliriousClam 09-21-2017 09:13 AM

if the answer is "no" then that's a complete deal breaker

I'm pretty sure they are the vents will have louvers.

Kingbaby 09-21-2017 10:47 AM

hopefully it flows well with the lines of the Z34/z33 and not just pure function which will urk the ell out of me!

AlWakRa 09-21-2017 12:24 PM

Looks like someone is a secret lover of the idea :rolleyes::p


And still waiting for it and hope it will look good.

JARblue 09-21-2017 12:51 PM

Someone putting them on their drift missle might want them to look ugly as sin :twocents:

Agreed, and this is why he did not suggest using their universal vents. He said they would work but not look good and wanted to get a donor hood hood which Eagle has provided so that he could make the best looking and functional hood for us.

LOL, If you are for something like synolimit design then you might want to talk to him. I think the SpecTrack will look like the one on their site. The will deflect water and debris better as well as adding down force.

Wow! You you Millennials kill me, you have no patience! You're comparing an established American company with a good reputation to Evo-R...common on now! Read the prior post the guy is very involved in motorsports and is often traveling to different venues. I for one can appreciate that and I have full confidence that his product will be what many are looking for and not just a cosmetic Korean made product.

What does being young have to correlate with the fact that there hasn't been an update in a month and relating that to the fact that Evo-R does the exact same thing? So if it takes this long to make the mold how long is it gonna be before people are actually able to buy it lol, by that time everyone could have saved up for a carbon fiber vented hood.. But i digress, I hope the wait is worth it like you're saying it is. Ill hold you to it :tiphat:

How is it the same thing Evo-R does? No money has changed hands. No orders have been taken. No one has been scammed or misled. It's just taking longer than some people would want to see the product. Either sit down and wait, or buy one of the other products on the market that would accomplish the same thing. No one's taken you hostage.

astro932 10-03-2017 09:46 AM

guys remember at the end of the day even once we see it its not like youre going to be able to get your hands on them for months anyway... If you want functional vents now I suggest you go to driveway labs and buy theirs, they do make good vents and one of these days Ill bug them enough to start making z stuff.

Obviously my comment was an over exaggeration however many of the younger generation want instant gratification...so as Chuck stated if you can't wait do something else. What is perplexing to me is some have stated that other options are out there but I see very few people using or touting those products. I simply have asked folks if they were interested in something different and the response was very positive and so we march forward.

Aslo recognize that this is a very busy time for motorsports on the west coast. Many championship are occurring during this tiime of year so John is extremely busy. While many are getting their cars ready for a winters nap we are in full track mode as the weather is just now getting optimal.

I think you should close this thread for now, and reopen it when the product is ready.

You sound like DC stirring the pot and trolling lol. Again there are other threads that have been open as long or longer with the products being developed. Hell people can simply ignore or unsubscribe to the tread if they want.

How long was the GTM group buy thread, the AAM manifold thread, the Next Z threads open? So what makes this one any different? :shakes head:

For real. There's not too much to talk about on these cars these days. If you don't like the thread, go read something else. The only problem with this thread is that goddamn typo in the title. :rofl2:

I wish I had known that secret before I opened the hood of my car and started pouring money in. All I needed was JC Whitney and a rivet gun.

I'm honestly just trying to bust balls and generate some comedy. No ill intent meant here. I'm quite excited to see these.

You should know how I like to play with balls from the OG thread Hotrodz ;)
