We'd like that too! Unfortunately, these things are EXPENSIVE to design and produce, and our engineers insist on financial compensation for their work! We may be able to bring the cost down if we get enough orders, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.


We're going to making this run very soon, as we need to have these pans on our race cars by the Laguna Seca round July 7-9.

100% absolutely yes. Not only do we have to protect the oil pan when the car gets bounced off track, over curbs, and God knows what else, but we we have a zero-tolerance ride-height rule. We cannot afford to design anything that compromises our ground clearance.


We are using a flush plug.


No effect on oil changes, the trap doors are hinged and are opened and shut by lateral g loading. Unless you are changing the oil during a track session they won't be any issue. If you are changing the oil on the track, the baffles are the least of your concerns.


We do have a diff cooler setup on our race car, and will eventually be offering a kit to the public. For now, however, we need to focus on getting our race cars fully developed and our team running full speed ahead. We will be getting together our plans for retail parts once we get into the off-season, and will be keeping you guys up to date with all our decisions.

Thanks!

Mike

Good answers :tup:

Count me in for the first batch then, although I won't be able to install until early August sometime due to travel constraints.

I'm satisfied.

One more minor question. Do we have to cut off or otherwise bend the metal tab that holds on the under-tray?

I'll reference wstar's install. Last pic in his post.

Well, they can't move the location of that bolt. But compared to the spacer install, they also don't have an extra inch of material under the bolts, so there would be an inch more room to work with there. One would think that would make for enough room to get a small socket into there.

I can't wait until you can build that car to finish top 15. Rough start so far, hang in there. I hate seeing mustangs and camaros finish ahead of your Nismo if it finishes. Show Fall Line and Rum Bum how its done.. Good Luck.

Mike, I'll take one. Hit me up here when ready travisjb@gmail.com

Thanks

Mike,

Sign me up for one! Hmmm how about extra capacity rear diff cover?:hello: do you need a deposit?

You guys are designing some of the coolest stuff! Nothing like racing to find all the stress points on this platform.

Two words: gear wrench.

Well, we've run two races, finished one, and lost 15th on the last lap, so we're about as close a you can get to the top-15! Really, we've made a significant jump in power since VIR, and we're always moving forward on the chassis. At Laguna we want top-10 at minimum.

Woohoo!

Yee haw, considering some sort of solution for that, I'll get back to you, thank you so much, and darn skippy! I think that covers everything.

Mike

Incredible looking piece! This is the real deal people! Wish I had the budget for one of my own right now, but it will have to go on "the list."

Thanks Mike!

We're glad you like it, we really want to become known for bringing the highest quality parts available for Nissan racing parts, so hearing compliments like that really makes our day!

Mike

Well so far so good Mike! Keep it up!

Hey Mike, thanks for answering our questions on your video response. This piece looks amazing and I hope there are new bits coming :)

I'm just going to leave these here...

Hopefully that gets two more orders and we can roll on this piece!
