I went to both this year so far and pretty much I don't miss them unless I'm out of town. typically just zdayz weekend I miss and/or labor day weekend I'm out of town.

I think I've seen the red E93 before. don't think I've seen your Z there. not many show up.

Though I would definitely sell them cheaper than the others.

Thanks man! I will look into that first thing once I get my car back from service which should probably be Saturday. I just have to figure out how to get a mold of that part because I am not sure if you can just remove that portion. I would sell for cheaper than evo r. Ive realized the materials are not necessarily the expensive part its more the time required.

Dude, I will gladly put money in your hands... whenever you're ready brother. No pressure.

I'd purchase some side blades from you.

Sub'd for details on that diffuser

I am interested in a diffuser.

spiston21 · 05-09-2016, 11:19 PM

Here is what the diffuser will look like. This is just the right side, I didn't really feel like mounting the other side because it would be exactly the same. This is still just the rough model so not everything is perfectly symmetrical. Sorry for the bad iPhone pictures

Ignore the bolts hanging they will be trimmed later. The gap between the fins and the hanging height will be adjusted so it is even (I just slapped them on there for the picture). Also the final carbon one will be one piece eliminating the seams.

The middle rake is currently less than the outside because i messed up on the center mount but I will make remake it so the rake about 8 degrees all around. I think its a nice alternative to the typical 370z diffuser
