I also like the splitter in the front. Generally I like the rear spoiler except for the base. If it mounted in a more traditional way it would look better. You probably would lose the rest of the minimal rearward view with this spoiler however.

The front lip might add some downforce, but seeing as its just a glue on, I doubt it.

For me, I wouldn't spend any money on non-functional body bits, however if the kits that do come out for those that are so inclined are as tasefully done, that would be a good thing. Its not to boy-racer looking. Wing is a bit much though.

Because of the excerpt below, I would think it may be somewhat functional....taken from website....

) BODY KIT
The Nismo body kit was developed by collaboration with "Gran Turismo (Polyphony Digital)".
Poluphony Digital designed the body kit based on Nismo design concept, and Nismo has realise the design by development using wind tunnel.


interesting....

They have the 18" Rays listed as $2,424.58 for a set. I guess with those and the Brembos the Track model is still a pretty good deal. I wonder how much performance advantage there is with the exhaust upgrades and if its much louder. Would their $1,500 be a good deal for downpipe, centre pipe and muffler for the WELDINA" STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST?

Looks like 275/40/18 9.5 can fit on the rear...very good thanks Nismo...Tell me if I'm reading this right. If you don't plan on buying their suspension parts you can still use this size but with a +38 offset for the standard height of the car?

wait so that car is in gran turismo? not in any of the four that i own. oh well. looks very nice except for the rear spoiler's black bar across the bottom. don't really like the wheels too much either, though they are wide enough to get rid of the original 350z's inward-wheel thing.

Are they selling sex toys for the Z already?!

"The stabilizers has exclusive rubber bush."

There quote not mine. Please delete if it really is unappropriate. I just thought it was funny in the translation.

"Inward wheel thing" God do I hate that. Thats the only thing IMO that looks bad on the car.

That's because you colonials do not speak the 'kings' english.
Now I'll take off my tam and have peek under the bonnet.

Wow, it looks really nice in the video game. Even better than in the photos. The photos make the car look higher than it must be with the S-Tune suspension. It does sort of have that GT2 look. I like the rear wing; it does remind me of the Porsche as well. I would rather the kit was all matched to the body color rather than being black.

Wonder if I can jam 18x10s in back?

I cant quite understand it from the site, can you fit the 18 X 9.5 wheels in the rear with the standard suspension.

wheels set to far into the car, makes it look kinda top heavy, especially from the dead rear.
