Yup you are right. It would look and perform awesome on your Z !!
I doubt you actually want to spend $$$ on another wing...
it suck because I have my eyes on a nice swan neck wing that would fit nicely on the back of Megan ;)
I just need to comeup with money !!! It wont be this year

The reason why I actually want to switch is that the wing is getting a bit small for the future plans

What? Anymore downforce it will pull up the asphalt. But I will be getting a new wing sometime. The one I have is cheap. I want a rear mounted one to the frame like you see on the GTR without the cost.

Nothing like a very light sanding and a new coat of clear it will be like new ;)
Im changing all of the bolts for some round head since the old one rusted

im also going to make some different sized endplate in CF since that first wing came with an alluminum plate that weight 3/4 lbs!!! Each.

Dont worry I will take as much downforce as I can ;)

For those that think itz overkill for an N/A setup because more downforce is also more drag.
I totally agree with that....

im not building the aero kit for Megan with the current power in mind but I will have to deal with it for 2014.:stirthepot:

The end plates now are carbon ... really light

I now remember why I never continued into any bodywork job in my younger age... damn I hate doing that stuff !!!

For the pass week, I've been working in the garage and it seem like I haven't done much !

- rear right quarter panel is now made, it just need some finishing up the edges, adding reinforcement and brackets for the side panel.
- New suspension in, which took almost a day because I had a damn headache !
- The AP BBK is removed for rebuilt and resurfacing in the next few weeks.
- Almost done with all of the diffuser bracket.
- The rear bumper cover is nearly done installing, I couldn't finish since I left a tool at home ! ;/


and then this :D
this is the first part of a 2 pieces mold

That's incredible that you're capable of doing your own body work and fabrication, kudos.

no kidding, thanks :tiphat:

I love doing everything myself the only problem is I dont always have the right tools for the job, which suck !
There is soo much more I could do, its all about money in the end.

I cant fabricate anything to sell to make money ,, no body like having race car parts ,, right ?
still have the whole exhaust setup for sale :shakes head:

Hey, I was looking at Cusco's LSD stuff, looks like they all specify they're meant as replacements for VLSD on the cusco-usa site here: Vehicle Results . Does that mean these work with the existing unequal-length stub axles from the VLSD?
