by GT300 do you mean the JGTC body kit? I don't think anyone has made it.
The Hasemi hood is close, but the hood is about it.

I think someone on this forum posted about a custom GT500 widebody kit. I forgot his screen name, his car was painted light green I think.

Heya Noah,

I'm not sure that anyone really makes an replica of the GT300 or GT500 bodies. From what I've seen the real ones are all Dry Carbon Fiber... insane.. every body panel is changed.

Are there some that come close to the look? yea. INGs new long-nose kit comes to mind...

I'd look at parts from TopSecret / INGs / Cwest. They are all wind tunnel tested and used in other racing series in Japan

and the new Nismo Kit looks very competitive

For anyone else that may be interested, the Air Walker kit comes pretty close I believe.

I have actually seen a website of a company in the USA that makes a replica of the JGTC Kit for the 350z. Unfortunatly I lost the link.

It seems as if everyone is mis-understanding you.

You don't want any replicas or bodykit for your Z. You just simply want to know who makes the actual body for the JGTC Z's, correct?

yes...thank you for the clarification I want to know who makes the real kit. I figured they we're contracted out but I have seen NISMO stamped on the back of GT500 fenders. Let's say I wanted to privately build a race car...for personal track use, was willing to cut and install tube chassis as well as anything else necessary...would I ever be able to publically buy one? or a GT300 or GT500 car??? I have seen these GT500 fenders for sale at a NISMO auction. HMMMMM the puzzle of the century!!!
