also, that car is not a true Nismo RC, but in a lot of ways is built either similar or better. the brake ducts up front are from the RC but that's about it. the doran team purchased the first (and only as far as i'm aware of) customer RC but ended up having to redo a lot of the prep to meet class and safety spec to race here. the cars are set up for FIA racing in japan so the cage is not up to our standards here

Anyone seen this?

Err, that's also a 350z kit.

I'm into the front fascia and I'm itching for a new project.

Am I the only one that can not see MJB's photo?

MJB, FYI... the photo is not showing up due to it being deleted from photobucket. At least that is what my screen says.

Never mind, I think you meant the RC Nismo he posted. Yeah he might deleted it.

dmhenderson · 11-14-2012, 12:35 PM

He removed the pics because HKYStormfront wasn't happy with them being rehosted (if I understand correctly).

That said, Z1 weighed in on my other thread on the subject and basically said it's a fool's errand for now:

Like all other NISMO RC components, getting them will take an act of Congress and most likely deep pockets to get as Japan does not easily release those parts to just anyone...Not event to Nissan North America.

As far as the CF Ducts go, there has been discussion by a few parties who have looked into reproducing them. No ETA or final word on pricing.

I asked them to keep me posted because I really like the look but there is no chance in hell I'm paying $1200 for those two parts. That's silly. You could buy an entire new front bumper for that.

this was the image he posted:

i've got no problem sharing my images, or anyone else for that matter, but i don't like to see my images uploaded into other people's photo accounts and then reposted without credit. it's just one of my pet peeves. if someone were to repost my image from this post, it would still show up as coming from my website. if someone wanted to see more, they could figure out the URL from it and go to my site to find more. if they post it from a rehosted photo site, the viewer would not know where it originated from. that's all. i know it sounds like a stupid gripe but i work hard on my pictures, i'd like everyone to enjoy looking at them without having to past huge watermarks all over them. that's all i ask in return.
