talking to a few of my Aerospace engineering buddies i got around talking about my Z and the front end of the car, on how i want to add air vents to assist in the intake breathing.

my friend suggested me to take a look at a book that he has on the Aerodynamics of cars and how to design them (not so much equations and such, but more of a conceptual and diagrams to show how theory works)..

its fantastic! now i know what that Nissan Advan GT car has that seperate black vent in the nose!

thats where the air flow splits from flowing over or under the car, the pressure build up there is the greatest, so all they have to do is open that up, duct it toward the intake, and thats it! ram air the most efficently.

well this is just something that ppl should look at when designing functional body kit!
