Wing/spoiler. I say wing as in GT Style(huge as h*ll) and spoiler as in Nismo style (smaller) and yes it would create drag but if you're going to try and hit 180+ then you would definately want some downforce or you can count on some interesting times in the near future.

Hey, if you guys want to LEGALLY drive over 150mph, come join us in the Nevada Open Road Challenge! This is the May version of the Silver State Classic.

Check it out at www.sscc.us.

Just for the record, I have hit a GPS measured 159.3mph with the stock speedlimiter still in place.

Default Why do you need down force?

I thought the car had a 0 lift.
Unless the 350z designer lied

I've hit 152 and rolled up the windows around 120-130 the car is absolutely solid. I was scared by the number but the car was smooth and could of easily gone to about 160-165 with the stock gears.
