Canards do not technically produce downforce. They are more to help smooth the air coming of the front bumper which "helps" with downforce. This is why they are just mounted to a plasic bumper with rivets. A splitter and diffuser will make WAY more difference than canards.

Is there any pictures of the MCR canards? I assume due to your mention of them, they are for the nismo bumper? If so, and they are at a reasonable price, I would pick some up. The only set I ever found for the NISMO are like $700.00 or something crazy like that.

Pretty sure you're talking about the MCR. They're hella pricey. I'm on my phone so I can't help you with a photo. They're made for the JDM version bumper, so you'd have to fill in the front reflectors for them to look right.

Yes yes, i kno, MCR canards must go on and so does my APR wing and everything else...yes yes. But i still have time, I will have them on this year for sure, i just have to clear some legal stuff so that cops won't harass me. Once i take out the amber reflectors, i'm screwed here on state inspection so gots to update those before i can do the baller stuff. But i can def rock the diffuser though!


....still paypal ready...........

I'm not stuck on the pretty stuff...an aluminum version will suit me just fine!

$400-600 range

I contacted Zspeed about this like two years ago, wasn't a market and probably still isn't enough to make serious profit!

Still in for design!

While I welcome competition, I don't see Joe from ZSpeed jumping in to make a piece for a limited car that is no longer in production. Also, the cost of making this out of aluminum would be extrememly expensive. I could be wrong though!

The only reason I am doing it is because I am already having it made for my car and it's as simple as taking the final product and making a mold of it.

I use the ZSpeed CSC on my car and I love it. For anyone even with a stock clutch, I highly recommend it. If you have an aftermarket clutch, I would get it because you WILL pop your stock one. It's only a matter of time!

I would say by this coming weekend. We test fitted on Friday night and made some adjustments.

Once it is complete, we will create it in solidworks and run CFD on it. As soon as that is done, we will make changes if necessary and then make a mold.

I would say this should be complete in the next 2 weeks.

When you guys get the test piece on there could you just take a quick snap shot to let us see what the design sort of looks like while mounted?

WOAH, way sooner than I expected. Very cool. Currently, are you planning on designing it for a dual muffler design? Or dual tip/single muffler design? Or what?

(Sorry if this has already been addressed in the prior pages...)
