Oh man, that brake cooling kit is the same way I fed air to the G3 intakes. Now I'm too stubborn to change it to feed the brakes. You guys

BTW, I don't want the stillen fascia with those vents in the front (I really don't like the look of that fascia, sorry), but I am thinking about fender vents...

there are aftermarket splitters for some cars that pick up higher pressure air near the ground... also some guys pick up air from under the car with naca ducts... finally, some guys create new perforations in their front fascia, but that would obviously ruin the stock look of a car... as for this kit, you're welcome to call Chet and ask him but I suspect he will want to sell one version, if at all

also, here's one for laughs!

OMG, Travis ur a genius, I want an install of spatula brake cooling, lol... That is actually a really good idea. I was also thinking about the splitter idea, but I never thought of Naca ducts...Good Thinking

Thanks

Suddenly, my mind is changing and I'm starting to like the stillen front fascia... I'm still way too stubborn on looks. Anyway, do you guys think if I use the fang vents like Travis used to cool the G3 intakes and the big sided vents on the fascia to cool the brakes, would this be a problem with drag?? Man, I need to know what the fascia looks like on my car. If anyone can photoshop a black non-nismo Z with the fascia + fangs (I know mike has a fascia without fangs, but it just doesn't work with me) please do...If this all works out, my next order will be Travis' Aeromotion spoiler and a giant splitter. Thanks Travis....

Peace
