Who built that car? I don't really see anything "wide" about it. Those are stock brakes with upgraded rotors and lines and the Amuse rear bumper with some type of aftermarket lip.

KUSH · 03-05-2012, 07:09 PM

Stillen front lip to be exact

XwChriswX · 03-06-2012, 06:06 PM

Nothing really 'custom' about the body. And nothing that would warrant a special 'RS' badging, unless you just wanna feel different...

Has F.I full straight pipe exhaust and long tube headers.

Getting nismo shock and springs set up from a forum member here (should be plenty of suspension, plus future sway bars and body braces.

Wheels will be ordered at the end of the month, either Volk G12 20x10 front and 20x12 rear, or the tokyo edition te37 19x10.5 19x12.

Currently have Toyo Proxes R888s already on the car if you cant see in the pics, plan on sticking with these with new wheel set up, or pilot sport cup tires if they fit.

Plan on gettng pulleys and final drive gearing, I think this will make the car the fastest, eliminate headaches of goin FI, and honestly I have yet to see TT or supercharged system that is truely "fast" compared to other production cars, Z was just not built for them and I dont think can truely deliver the hp. Possible go with the HR head conversion and do total Nismo race engine if anything.

Stillen lip was just added to get SOMETHING on the car for this show, honestly for $200 its A LOT nicer than I ever thought it was from pictures.

The plan though with the front is to get cf mines lip molded into bumper, and also integrate the 2012 GTR's led running lights into the bumper.

Stay tuned

*work in progress*

phelan · 03-07-2012, 11:13 AM

i wouldn't do running lights, on the Z they just look tacky, but your call.

Speedy · 03-07-2012, 11:40 AM

I like most of this car. Simple, effective. Not sure it's a special edition, but nice mods just the same.

I'm more of a keep it simple kind of guy when it comes to exterior mods. I like the front lip and the rear diffuser. However, I think the rear wing is a bit too tall for the body style.

Personally, I think the Nismo wing is about right for this car. Can those be added to a sport model without having to do a lot of body filler on holes and what not?

Reaper42 · 03-07-2012, 11:45 AM

No you need to drill new holes, this wing isnt only cms taller and wider than actual nismo, not that big of a difference. Direct shot from the back it looks perfect, some side angles it looks eh, but overall I like it.

The running lights I will be doing arent the aftermarket cheapo nissan ones, I will actually be buying replacement 2012 GTR lights and molding them into pretty much the same spots that they are on the 2012 GTR.

Anyone want to photoshop this for me?

Isamu · 03-07-2012, 03:55 PM

good choice on wheels.. and I totally missed the FI exhaust...

provide some pics and I can try an chop it for you
