I couldn't resist!

Really tho, hopefully the pics don't do it justice, and it looks WaY better in person, 'cause that thing harkens to a cattle catcher in those pics...

Just kidding. I like it and don't think it sticks out to far. If it didn't stick out a little it wouldn't be functional. I'm sure Kaminari did extensive windtunnel testing, right? You know, at that one down off Kietzke... :lol:

Oh all you lip haters, its been wind tested up to 135 and it does stick out a little bit but if you were to put a ruler on the front bumper its only like an inch. The lines make it look longer in that picture.

If they windtunnel tested it I am impressed. I bet many, if not most body parts and kits are not. Like that dude with the hood vent thingie... :lol:

Kaminari has been around forever. Their 280Z "Kaminari Kit" was the shit back in '82.

Oh, and btw I did tie yarn to the hood vent mesh and wind test it to well over 135mph.

^yarn hahahah:lol:

How much downforce does it provide at 135?

Bob Danger 2007-03-05 11:05 AM
I'd like to see how it stands up against a cone.

I hope that "wind testing" wasn't you out on 395. :eek:

Be careful... Mike's mom is the Aussie equivalent of a RedNeck... Imagine a trailer park, but instead of a Chevy on blocks and a pit bull chained up to it... it's a Holden and a crock.

Whatever you do, don't ask her if she's a member of a New Zealand rugby team.

sybir 2007-03-05 02:05 PM
Or offer her a Foster's.

The wheels help a lot. Sweet. Do you have any non-weird photos? Without the lense on them? I'd like to compare.

100_Percent_Juice 2007-03-08 11:19 PM
Yes the wheels make a 100% difference. Here is the normal first picture.
