Nine Lives Racing Front Splitter

dimmaz · 07-07-2021, 05:59 AM

Hey Guys,

I’m looking at getting the 9LR front splitter and wanting to know if anyone else here has any feedback on it?

Specifically looking for mounting options/ideas as the splitter does not come with hardware.

I read somewhere that you could use the BattleAero chassis mounts but from the pics its looks like they will hit my intercooler piping.

Any suggestions?

Mounting a splitter is a PITA. It took me a while to mount an APR splitter on my Nismo. Think this winter. I'm going to change the mounting so it's more flat. That's another thing. When mounting a splitter. It has to be level with the ground. It can't be pointed up or down.

Thanks Rusty.

Yes. I have this and mounted it with Professional Awesome quick release brackets and splitter rods.
For the brackets, I got a shop to make adapters. PM me here or find my posts on the track Z fb group and message me there if you end up buying the splitter and going with the professional awesome hardware.
My brackets adapt the PA quick release brackets and allow for 1/6" height changes and I also have a drilling guide I printed. Some pics on Instagram @stupidtoycars

Thanks [mention]DarkJak [/mention] this is exactly what I was after. I made a request to join the Track Z Facebook group and awaiting approval.

I will send you a PM for more info on the adapters and hardware.

Sounds good. I'll be happy to go through what else worked well too. Just been a bit buy (been working this weekend) so don't have the energy to gather up everything I did.
