Went for a test drive and beat on the brakes. After parking the car I could still feel the heat rising from the vents. This will definitely help relieve some wheel well pressure since I don't have any wheel liners after the Raccoon incident.

Next up: The Hood!

Do you have any planm on building a front race style splitter?

DatsunFTW · 03-29-2016, 07:43 PM

My final other plans as far as aero and venting are a full splitter with canards built into it, cut the bumper to have air passage into a dual oil cooler set up I plan to run on the sides of the radiator, a center hood vent, and possibly longer vents up the side of the hood. Vents being TrackSpec universal ones. They have been tested quite rigorously so those are a definite

Awesome work Thomas! definitely one of my favorites builds by far man!

Outstanding work on the front fenders Mr Thomas

The front fenders have the IMSA in your face and track ready look

Datsun, did you have 350z nismo wheels on your car or is that PS? If you did where can I see more pictures of the car with those wheels!?

Thanks

DatsunFTW · 03-30-2016, 11:30 AM

It was a Photoshop. I liked those wheels a lot on my 350 so I wanted to buy them at the time.
