I actually just stumbled on this build. I'm amazed.

Was wondering, any brake heating issues? Doesn't look like any modding was done to direct airflow to them.

Thanks on the build! I have oil going through the radiator as well. I was testing that cooler location, because I don't want to open up the entire front of the car. I can feel the drag now as it is. I have an oil cooler on the way that is literally the same size as the radiator! I am however very concerned about the oil pressure drop through it. We are also working on a radiator/heat exchanger that will dissipate 160btus. Should double our total cooling. Also considering splitting the intercooler, so I can direct the cleanest air possible to cooling. Power isn't the problem heat is, so it should get priority.

I haven't had any issues with brake heating. I did 45 min straight at Road Atlanta (It was January 40deg ambient). I've been running the set of XP8s for what seems like forever! With that said....Ducting is on my to do list. I'm still not sure of what the front end of the car is look like after all the oil cooling mods. Once that's sorted, ill duct them... if there's any air left!

Some more fab pics... Built a custom exhaust 304 stainless all TIG welded

Good work on the exhaust. How much weight did it save compared to the Greddy?

less than 1/2 the weight of the full system (FS by the way)... The secondary need was to clear the area for the fuel cell and diffuser.

So, Jay, how's the drone at say 2500 RPMs? Nice and streetable? *lol* I kid, I kid.

The exhaust looks pretty damn good. I bet it is ungodly loud, though. I want to hear it.

I've heard good things about the XP8's. Def a challenge being the trailblazer in directing so much airflow. Hat's off to you though, great job so far.

Btw, we def need some more pics and videos.

Modified Mag front cover. The issue should be out in 2 months, and we'll get a scan of the cover posted up. I wanted to thank Jay again for joining the shoot. It's features a comparison of his 370Z TT vs. our GT-R.

Add me on FB "Sharif Abdelbaset". I added a bunch of pics from the photoshoot that I took with my iPhone...LOL.
