No problem. I had already figured that out. Let me know how it works as soon as you get a chance to test it.

Thought this might be a possibility, pulled off the Novitrc Rosso thread, and found the pic on their website..

It looks like novitec rosso only deals with Ferraries. I'm not so sure it will fit our cars. It does look bad @ss, however.

Not trying to beat a dead horse, but here's another pic of a Top Secret diffuser on a Z that I just found in a wheel/tire thread here. I thought this shot might be helpful for some. It gives a pretty good perspective of the space for exhaust fitment. Not sure, but that looks like an HKS Hi-Power exhaust maybe.

^^^ Thats another reason why I like the TS version......it will fit with most exhausts.....will fit all Z/G's...Its number one on my list...but lets see what the tests show



Updates on the sale of my Turbos and Motor........I did not list it because of all the PM's I have recieved......The turbos, downpipe and manifolds are already sold and the motor is already spoken for....The Cosworth Plenum is also spoken for by the Mad Scientist....Thanks again guys.

It definitely looks like a nice setup! It would be nice to get a picture that clear of the TS diffuser for the G35. I briefly looked, but did not find one. If anyone knows of one, please post it.

Went by PowerFab Automotive in Houston today and we went over the plans for the car.....WOW...nice shop....and I saw some of the work that they have done na dis doing....I was asked to keep it to myself...and I can see why...very skilled in welding..


I was given alot of ideas on how to control heat and how to mound the diffusers......I will go over with Terry. I will also change out the exhaust and pipes to a very lightweight system.....you have to see this thing to believe it....wow !
