You can take that heat shield off since you have a single and a bumper tuck

No prob....actually talk with your local track guys and look into dabbing a diffuser....

Sounds like a huge task but a sheet of metal from the subframe to the bumper tuck would replace what the muffler did as a diffuser

Would any of the existing diffusers work? For example to top secret? I know with a single having a diffuser doesn't really work to well

Any new updates? I love the thread, I have a pretty much stock Z and its nice to see a build that goes from stock to a handful of conservative nice parts. I also am looking to hit the track next year so you are giving me some much needed motivation. Keep it up!

Thanks a lot!! It's honestly one of the best layouts. The looks is sort of timeless in a sense. When you get back post picks, would love to see it!

ive been debating about this for awhile...the bilsteins were lowered evenly all the way around, but i feel like i should lower the rear more (the car still has its natural rake).

Your car looks so clean. I went with the debadged look on my v2 as well but I didn't get canards...your car is seriously making me regret that though. xD

BTW, I think a little lower on the rear would look good, but you really don't need much. That natural rake makes it look real sporty though. Keep up the good work.

thank you very much! I'm more of a simple and to the point kind a person and i think the car reflects that. On the v2 i felt i needed to go with the shaved look, since the Bumper comes with the 06 and below hood lines. And, maybe i will lower the rear a bit...i just hate scraping though
