What do you guys think about these? Do you think it would look good on the Nismo fascia?

CorSport: Exterior - Brake Air Ducts - NACA-020825

They look good but too many bolt holes

I will call my people and see if we can do a group buy on the NISMO ducts

Just get some carbon dust for the holes, refinish (clear it or polish it) then secure to the bumper with panel bond.

I thought about doing something like that, but the Nismo RC ducts follow the bumper lines allot better.

I agree, the Nismo RC ducts are nicer.

Rusty mentioned in his thread that he didn't pay list price for his grille. I'll commit if we can get a good discount, group or otherwise on the ducts.

I got the brake ducts from Nissan MotorSports. Phone 888-833-3225. You have to call them. They list for $612.00 each. So you need 2. A left and a right. Part numbers 41152-RTZ40 for the right. 41153-RTZ40 for the left. I used the Stillen brake duct kit too. That's an extra $200+. When I got my ducts. Paul StClair was there. He has since moved on. So I don't know what kind of discount pricing they have now. If they are out of stock. Be prepared for a long wait.

Took 5 months for my grill screen to come in.

I haven't done much with the Z lately, as I'm moving the GF into the house with me. So that is taking up TIME and money for now.

Baer383 · 02-24-2013, 10:16 PM

I really would like to see if any one can make these.

You know what's sad. You can replicate Nismo parts to equal original quality, and still undercut nismo prices 20%-40%. It shows how weak Nismo products are.

the real NISMO ducts are dry CF... that is why they are expensive... no one on this site is going to make DRY CF ducts and sell them for cheap. so no, yu can't make the same quality

nismonster · 04-13-2013, 12:53 AM

roplusbee · 04-13-2013, 06:27 PM

Not sure I can pony up another 1200 + 200-300 more for brake ducting, but if you guys get some sort of a deal..........I'll jump in.
