Thanks. As for the wheels, i'm going to powder-coat them black and chrome and i think they will look better.

Extra cooling is something is need, i live in an area of 120 degree days with no humidity. Humid air cools a lot better than dry air.
Cool I see your point... Some of the guys in the other thread mentioned non carbon fiber hoods that were lighter( or as light) than the factory hood but they got the same response.

bumping a old thread...

im going for a full nismo v2 (RS Concept) replica look...

does any one know the specs/measurements of the hood cut outs? i know i could cut a couple slits and no one would know, but i want to be a lil more spot on... like how far up on the hood, how wide, thickness of cuts and space between cuts?

thanks!

here you go.

i think if you print this 1:1 scale it's a decent template.
