weight of v3 wing?
 
Hey guys, been looking around but i can't seem to find a weight of just the v3 spoiler alone. Reason being is i just bought a wing to replace the v3 but i'm wondering if the wing i bought (40lbs or less) is lighter or heavier than the spoiler thats on the nismo already. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I don't know what the weight is, but what did you replace it with?

i really don't know the weight but i know its super heavy...when i converted my car to authentic V3 body kit..i noticed how heavy it is...stock shocks went flat..

Flo-ridaZ33 05-04-2011 05:27 PM

It can't be more than 40lbs...

I purchased a voltex wing, was wondering about the weight due to the fact if i needed to purchase some stronger hatch struts to support the new wing.

My bet is that the voltex wing will more than likely be heavier than the oem v3 wing. I had a veilside wing on my 03z and it was a lot heavier than the oem v3 on the 08nismo. But if i was in your situation I would go ahead and buy the hatch struts just because we all know that they go out.

I think it's great people aren't affraid to go against the norm:thumbup: Can't wait to see this with the NISMO kit. As much as I love our cars, the wing would be the one thing I would change. I actually prefer the V2 wing over ours.:dunno:

LULZ. just ordered an APR gtc-300 for my nismo :D
my guess is that it's lighter than the stock one.

haha, i thought about the v2, but it seemed like taking a step back jus cuz our v3 wing looks like it flows better visually speaking.

I ordered the type 2, 1700mm, with 275mm stands. I wanted to the the gtc-300 but the mounts were what steered me away and to voltex. It just seems that voltex mounts would disperse the weight better than the apr ones.

are you tracking the car? if No then who cares.

nismofreak1208 05-05-2011 11:00 AM

^unfortunately there is only auto-x available here in hawaii until they finish the track. So at the moment no but thanks for ur concern!

Goo$e 05-05-2011 12:51 PM

After holding mine in hand...if I had to take a guess it would be 10-20lbs.

Since no one mentioned it....Dibs on your V3! Haha :)

Z1Auto sells it for like $2800! I'd sell mine if I could get half that!

I'd get rid of mine for 1000$...
I'll get rid also of the stock wheel + some tires for 1500$....

(just a feeler right now)

Flo-ridaZ33 05-05-2011 07:48 PM

1000.00 for a V3 is a good price... I picked up mine for 750.00 but the guy needed it gone ASAP.

Kcee91 05-05-2011 10:45 PM

Sorry to threadjack NismoFreak. :o Anyway, I didn't know the wing was that heavy, but I was thinking of converting my body kit into the Nismo Superlegerra by Amuse. Also, has anybody seen a Nismo with the Superlegerra wing? Thanks guys.

67ZNISMO 05-05-2011 11:57 PM

Haha! My bad...didn't mean to thread jack Ricky!
