Two words.... brake ducts.

Im tired of having to fabricate something that looks hillbilly for a sophisticated car like the Z. Please take this into consideration.

Thank you kindly,

We are missing small attention to detail mods that pretty much don't exist.

How about a rear wing that is not ONLY beautiful to look at like the NISMO wing is, but it aso very functional at speeds over 140mph???

We need brake cooling solutions.

How bout GTR style NACA ducts but ones that fit our hoods better. The actual gtr ducts are awkward and buying a new hood is risky... (fitment issues.) A nice fitting NACA duct would be great for engine cooling.


For automatic owners. The shift area isn't the most attractive. How about a shift boot that doesn't look overdone for the auto. Nissan should have made the shift area closer to the G37.

More solutions to modify our OEM steering wheel. I don't want an aftermarket cuz our hubs are hot but, I wish our wheels were thicker. Maybe a flatbottom version of the stock steering wheel



Design a power module for a manual folding mirrors so it won't be so hard for us to get them? I don't really care about it but I keep reading many people wanting them.

All excellent ideas. Definitely love the idea of a G37esque AT shift knob kit!

Other nice ideas -

More chassis braces or at least genuinely stiffer ones than those we currently have (e.g., how hard would it be to make a better rear tower bar?)

How about something resembling the Nismo S-tune wing that will bolt to the factory spoiler holes?

A fang duct kit for either brakes or intake.

Speaking of side mirrors, how about a set that is smaller (especially if the power capability can be kept)?

Any Engine cover to suit the cooling plate and engine compartment covers?
Also, hood dampers, cf floormats would be cool.

Make sure to provide parts for both, the nismo and the normal Z cars

Hope all goes well!

^ I agree with everything that everyone has posted.

Brake Duct
Functional Rear Diffuser besides the one that Evo-R offers (which I don't think it's functional at all)
As far as the shift knob, I'd like the OEM Profile one with a round top rather then just a ball type knob. I really like the Tommy Kiara Hebbi Bebi? But I'm not gonna pay close to $300 for a knob lol...And please make it heavy like Phelan said, I want something that feels solid.

Brake Ducts seem to be something a lot of people want. We should be able to come up with something nice for the Z.

This is the brake ducts we have made for the Nissan GT-R

that rear diffuser appears functional looks good!

also something like this (more of a comsetic thing) but not with the loopy folded rubbermat looking thing on the sides. i want just a flat piece there on both sides behind the rear tires. im looking or something that would be fluid with Ings+ side CF pieces.



who ever's picture this is, thanks for letting us use it...

This is exactly what want. Then the brake duct also. But I would need my brake ducts to be right up on the center of the rotor

Im pretty much on the same page as these guys. Brake ducts would be great as would a rear diffuser. Shift knobs are always good as well. Somebody on pg1 suggested better fitting naca ducts, I like this too as I have actually been looking for some

yes, for the full functional one that is true..but the cosmetic one i dont think not too hard as it wont go deep under the car to the mid pipe area. probably wont work on low hanging cans (FI) but for most exhausts should work?
