Keep the OEM. That's why some people call our cars rice...you dont see a Z06 going 190mph+ with a huge wing. I guess nissan needs to build a better exterior design for better downforce to avoid people using these towering wings.

Not really a fan of the wing. but on your car it does look pretty good...for a big wing.

big NO to the god awful wing.

I like none/OE best.

actually. depending on the shape of the wing, they're designed for different speeds.

something flatter and smoother is meant for high-speeds (like really high. 150+)
if you never see those speeds. something like the Voltex with multi-teir flaps might be a better fit. more downforce (but higher drag)

you know what i vote for




edit:

you are a JET pilot.. not shopping cart pusher. (in reference to the v2 wing.. roflers)

The Nismo looks nice on your car, JET.

But the Voltex is a good performer.

honestly I think the voltex wing will compliment your car more than the v2 I say go for it because your car can pull it off. You planning on a rear diffuser or leaving it stock? I personally like your bodykit as is sick ride man

I dunno. On a street car, the voltex is too much. But you race alot, so that could help. I personally love the v2
