Default What is the best and wider widebody for the z?

Hello guys nice to meet you.
First post here but i keep reading the forum for some time.
Sorry for the new thread for something already answered but i want to know which wide bodykit is the wider..

I am having a project z which will be twin turbo with 550+whp,gt factory lambo door,two tone paint,coilovers,brakes front rear 6pistons/4 pistons,sways,polished motor with carbon parts,stillen exhaust,volk sf challenge 19" black with chrome and for bodykit i had in mind the veilside vol3 wide version with seibon hood in carbon but is it a lot wider from the stock or just a few mm????

Please if you can help me post some answers.
Thanks in order
BTW here is my last project which i am going to sell so i can finish my z

so basically you're building a new project just like your last project? What's the point? I'd suggest that if this is your "project", do something different. Good luck.

Well the point is my last car-rx8-won't get the hp numbers i want and here in Greece you can see 5-10rx8s every day..Zs are only a few...So i am going for a z also cause its tuning possibilities are far more than other cars in its category..

I think widebody's are tacky and remember SAY NO TO LAMBO! If I had to pick a widebody though, I would NOT pick the Veilside as its fugly and played out, Id do Top Secret.

Veilside isn't very pretty. Go with Do-luck or Top Secret for sure! I'm sure their websites have a measurement of how much wider they are if not email them. I believe Top Secret is 10mm wider on each side. Also dont put some volk challenges on their, you need some serious lip on a widebody, get some serious offsets (like +1 lol)

Thanks for all the replies guys i appreciate it.
I tried to find a wide do-luck but no-luck!Where can i least see it?

I also like mastergrade a lot!Its very rare and makes the car a lot different..The top secret well i don't know but it doesn't make me love it in first sight...

I was thinking something like that without the graphic and these rims...Well offcourse the first thing is the motor to be builded..And i say again that in Greece there are maximum 300-400z from which not over 5 are tuned in any way...

I second the BRS widebody, its my favorite one over the Top Secret widebody. It has a clean looking front and the rear's stance with that Trial wing looks a lot better than the Top Secret's widebody rear.

You guys have to understand that here in Europe tuning your car consists of putting on the cheapest bodykit and applying the most bondo you can before you bottom out the suspension. Only the real hardcore tune their engines, because it is so hard to do, both physically and legally. That's why people go for show but no go, and end up with a car that has 10.000 worth of bodykit, but only does 0-60 in 2 weeks. Even the hardcore think it's cool to make your car look extreme (although they atleast do have some power), although i prefer the cleaner more subtle look.

Oh, and don't go for a widebody, it just ruins the whole point of the Z, just go for a good looking bodykit, and if you want to go all out, just put graphics on it.

I don't believe that this comment goes for me..I hope you speak generally cause as i said my motor will be twin turbo arround 600whp and everything needed to be daily driven in arround 0.9bar of boost...Although i like having a car tuned in every point..And my rx8 was 50hp over the stock one so i had a "go" for an rx8...I had it turbo but not something i missed...
