Some Help Choosing JDM GT Wing for the Nismo (ING? Voltex?)

SeeThruHead · 01-18-2022, 03:15 PM

Why not get a removable front splitter for the track?
Set the gt wing in it's most neutral position for the the street. Then bolt on a splitter and adjust the wing for the track days.

Seems like this could be unbolted rather easily. Doesn't even seem like the brackets will be visible when the splitter is not installed.

OR if the wing is providing too much downforce on the track then just unbolt the wing. would look silly maybe but you're tracking the car that day, not going to a show so who cares.

Too bad that it's sold out.

That's actually a great idea. I wonder if theres other removable ones and how it would actually bolt up to the chassis. That's one of the most aggressive splitters I've seen too.

If it's for the track only I would buy the wood version. Easier to replace a busted splitter that way.

Scroll through the images on that page. The brackets bolt in between the crash bar and where it mounts. And are slotted and height adjustable.

It's a wood core with a carbon fiber covering.

the 600$ option without carbon is in stock.

OK, I didn't see the cheap piece. If that's the case. You just buy the brackets and a piece of plywood that you cut yourself.

Haha yeah thats true. Even if you wanted the carbon fibre one too. Laying a few layers of carbon over wood, aka carbon skin is really easy.
