Fibreglass tailgate fitted - the quality and the fitment is excellent

My Personal opinion here is,

i love the bumper and the line it gives, i take it its a 300zx not sx unit?
Anyway did you have to norrow it to fit?

I'm not liking the wheel arches though, i expect they offer something on the track, the work is top class though just not to my tastes.

I was thinking of going down the nismo arch route as i think the more curved shape fits better with my taste for the 185's lines.

















Can't wait to see more on your project...

No at the moment...things are progressing albeit slowly.

Not doing the bodywork mods that's being done by Edge Performance (as a project as and when they have time at a very special sponsorship labour rate) - this is why it's taking so long.

I'm helping out where and when I have time on Saturdays.

what made you go with the arch style you have chosen?

is the bumper from a 300zx? just wondered as previously it states 200zx?

guess thats a minor error.

Hi,

First time I've seen this thread and I wondered if you would be on this forum as I was at Edge Performance the other week just to get a rubber bung for my ST205 air box and low and behold there was a white GT4 on the ramps with outrageous bodywork going on lol

Nice work.
Going for the DTM style?

I might be entering my almost standard 205 but we'll see

Its pretty standard really:
- KYB Shocks
- Tien Springs
- TRD Tops mounts
- Audi S3 wheels lol
- 1bar (Heat shield under and round the CC)
- HKS Panel filter
- And not quite fitted the downpipe yet

Yes - 300ZX Fairlady wide body front bumper (Carzone or Carcept)



Yer spot on - DTM influence - Mercedes CLK DTM

I'd chop that rear bumper. Its hangs down way lower than a stock 185 bumper and its really just a big airbrake.

Actually have a cunning plan...looked at how the rally cars have a full length under pan/tray and thought about doing something similar for ground effects but, in addition, adding a full width, axle back rear diffuser (similar to what I have on my ST205 but more like what Johnny Milner has done on his ST205 monster sprint car).

Curious as to where your jacking points will be?
