And your point is?
And I do admit I discriminate like crazy. When I see a widebody 350z I can appreciate it if it looks good and will judge only on aesthetics.I tend to write them off as a show car.
The tracking pics, the rear strut bar, buckets, roll cage, absent of a blinging stereo just makes me appreciate this widebody a little more.

The car is D2 Racing Sports official Time Attack car and will be running in REDLINE events, Speed Trials, and upcoming time attack events.
The car was built for "Time Attack". The Z is very under powered and finished 4th place against Turbo Miatas, WRX, EVO 8, S-2000 and other Zs. Since it was our first true competitive event we were there more for research and tuning puposes. Everything was tuned and tested at the shop but needed to be on track to be able to FINE tune each specific part of the suspension.

Unfortunately the D2 reputation sucks here in the states !!!!
Their 350Z products suck. Manufacturer support for their sucky products sucks.
Don't ever buy their coilovers unless you want a really sucky experience.

Well.... they are adjustable... but they f*cked up the R&D and the lowest setting is @ stock height. Soooo if you want to go offroading your have enough adjsutment to raise the car about 2.5".

Am i the only one that doesnt like it? The kit itself has good design, but theres a couple of elements that i dont like. It might be the rims, the color, something that i really cant put my finger on but i give alot of respect to the interior.
