hey who drive the red NA1 with carbon type-r hood and the big wing? spotted driving south on 71 to columbus just north of 270 yesterday at 530pm
 
Ya, it was me. APR GTC300. Hate the way it looks, love the way it performs. Good for 2 seconds a lap at Mid Ohio. The back end was planted and I had a lot more confidence to go into the corners hot without worrying the back end would come around.

did'nt you also play with your swaybars to reduce that nasty power on oversteer we were seeing?
 
Jim,
Did u get the gourney flap too?
How did you set your wing? Flat, angle up/down.. Etc..

They don't have the Gurney flap in stock. Which I don't understand since ARP makes them and it's just a strip of CF. :confused:

Set it at -04 deg down in the center.
 
Very strange that apr dont have them in stock. :confused:
Did you add any riser to it? 2", 3". I have the 3" its level with the roof.
When u get a chance get me a quick pic of how you had it set up, would u?

Particularly the -04deg angle down. When i installed mine there werent any instruction, so i mount it like this:

Jim, To ease confusion what they said was they didn't have any available to send with it that day. ( maybe they had them set for other wings?) No idea. If you still want it let me know, I will gladly call them. It did not seem like a huge deal so I didn't hold the wing up or push them for it when I talked to them. It was a quick "mention" and over.

I like it. Your car look like those diecast scale nsx toy.
The splitter look aggressive. :thumbup:

Now all you need is a type r hood then you are SET. :biggrin:

I've got that. But I switch it out when not on the track as I haven't gotten it painted yet, still CF. Plus, I don't really care for the look.

I dont kow. I think you'd like it better once you get it painted to math. Right now it stand out like a sore thumb. Much more subtle after paint.

Wow... that's impressive. I mean REALLY impressive. That's an eternity.


I don't have any risers. Look at the link below at the bottom of that page. I bought a digital level from Harbor Freight to do my measurements.

So how far is it off by. :wink:
