Now I have to go look at mine. It looks different like there's extra "stuff" going on in the grille area but it could just be the two-tone paint job. Now I'm 2nd guessing myself.

I think you need to walk around your nismo a little more, the picture you posted is the same as the one on your car right now.


Only different it's not black

Are you guys missing the fact the RC has an actual screen grille in the opening? That would not be hard to replicate at all. These guys sell all the materials needed:

customcargrills.com - Custom Car & Truck Grills - Billet & Mesh Grill Inserts

Sadly, I'm actually thinking about it.

What are the part numbers for those vents and where can I buy them? Do I have to buy them direct from Nissan? Rusty's thread is a bit long.

Edit: Also, you're right. The paint job was throwing me a bit. It just has vents. Those would look fantastic on my car.

99% sure you need to order direct from nissan for the nismo brake ducts. Z1 MIGHT be able to source them for you but you'd have to call them.

no idea on part numbers.

Go to page 6 of my thread. That's where the brake duct install starts. If you have any questions about the install. Let me know. The only thing I ran into is the placement of the windshield washer bottle on the right side. Not a lot of room to put the brake hose through there. Any hose bigger then the one in the Stillen kit won't fit unless you remove the washer bottle. And I had to shorten the back of the ducts too.

Part numbers:
Left: 41153-RTZ40, List $612.00
Right: 41152-RTZ40, List $612.00

Rusty - as I posted on your build thread, great job!

Thank you for posting the duct part numbers. Where did you order them from?

Thanks!

get ready to bend over cause until someone makes a replica, you're going to be looking at $6xx dollars iirc. Still, it's real dry carbon so for me, if/when I need braking cooling, then they'll be going on the car.

Let us know what you find out. I'm interested in getting a set of these as well.

PM Rusty, that GM Nismo is his.
