NEW RELEASE: Front Diffuser for Various Vehicle
2006/10/12

JUN Machine Shop has added a New Front Diffuser for various vehicle. Now it is on sale.

This front diffuser has an air pocket in central part amplifies incoming air from bottom of front bumper temporarily and the compressed air quickens speed, and it is drained behind your vehicle. Strakes before front wheels reduce turbulence by the tires, and the air deflects to center of vehicle. The quickened air makes down force occur through bottom of vehicle. Moreover by the type of vehicle, this diffuser has effect which lowers water and intake temperature because it pulls out heat from engine room.

cut to fit!

after looking at the picks it doesn't look any better than what the track models came/come with.

Its a complete front underside diffuser sort of like the TopSecret one. The track model just comes with a little strip. Very different (see first pic).

my only question is there are diffusers made specifically for the Z (varis, top secret) so why a universal? do most aftermarket bumpers not line up with a stock undertray (which would mean it would line up with a aftermarket one)? and teh varis also has much deeper channels leading to the front suspension.

but I likes it anyway

It looks like they made it universal so you can trim it to stick out a little if you want plus you can cut it for use with different aftermarket bumpers.

Nah, I think it's designed to go all underneath. If any of the leading edge stuck out, the trimmed edge would look like crap unless you had it professionally sanded and painted.

So basically this is just a more aerodynamic piece that replaces the stock plastic under tray, right? Pretty cool. Price?

Hmm, looks like it was bolted onto the Z32 completely untrimmed (at least in the front). Looks much better when completely underneath, IMO.

thats just an aluminum undertray tho- it does have vents to added cooling, but

I want to get the pieces from the "Gold Digger Z" in the Performance Auto Salon Magazine. It was a side Carbon Diffuser and two front pieces that went under the bumper on each side....Does anyone know what I mean? or seen the Magazine?
