thats standard for the australian market...........
 
The leachers are great. For the front bumper you might want to fill up the upper portion of the middle hole (radiator intake) until it becomes same height as the two side holes. Other than that it looks great.

Btw, nice HKS exhaust. Is it Jasma?

 
I think you need a rear bumper skirt or something as the sideskirt comes down too far in relation to the back of the car.

In the UK that kind of front bumper is everywhere, even on 1.0 engined hatchbacks, so it's not my thing, but it sure does look aggressive!

Looking at this pic... Yes it needs your panel beater to fix the gap...

Love those wheels and bonnet! It is not Carbon Fibre though is it?

No its not CF
 
Looks good.

Is the hood flat black? Maybe it's the picture angle/lighting but it looks dull. No offense, just something that I noticed. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, I've seen other HKS exhaust and they all say Jasma. Do some not come with this stamping/plate? What is the difference between the two?

Looks much better with the black mesh. Gives a "finished" look to it.

actually it is black mesh already

You may have misinterpreted my initial statement. I meant to say it looks better with the black mesh rather than without any mesh.

LOL :biggrin: sorry about that, I've agreed with you it looks better with the black mesh
 
I really like the side skirts and rims, but for some reason that front bumper has never appealled to me. The upward curve in the middle looks odd on the NSX. Definitley needs rear spats to complete the look too.
Enjoy it, I'm sure it is a head turner.

hey where did u get the sideskirt?
its really really nice man

for me i got it from japan, but for you i guess SOS is the best place to go
 
Is this a widebody kit? I'm not sure I'd want to do a widebody, but I love the front lip? Would it look good with something like the West Wings or Stacy's side skirts? Also, does doing the 02 rear conversion make the back end look lower? I really like the lip and I want to do some vented side skirts along with the 02 rear conversion, but wasn't sure how this would all look together. Any opinions or suggestions?

Also, looking at the side profile, you definitely need to do something w/ the rear, as it looks out of place with the low profile of the front and sides. Otherwise, it's a beautiful car. Keep up the good work!

JASMA is "Japan Automotive Sport Muffler Association" , my undrstanding its a Japanese regulatory body which looks into japanese government requirement in noise, enviroment etc in sports exhaust...

thanks for the comment, i kind of like it like this becoz most of the super GT is empty at the rear, i know there is a big diffuser in the middle but for me i cant use any diffuser, if i do i cant go in to my garage after that:biggrin:

You would probably want to install a set of sideskirts if using the S-TAI front end. It comes down very low, and the lower leading section tapers out as it comes around to the front wheel well. A lack of an aftermarket sideskirt might look odd in that instance. If you look at the Delphi car on the SOS S-TAI page, you'll notice that they added skirts and a diffuser to the rear.

Hey man, Thats a REALLY nice job on the Car. It does look a little off without a bigger rear diffuser. But I think if I looked at it the way it is now, long enough. It would grow on me. :smile:
