Ric's C-West GT S15

[S15RKM]

overall i like the CWest widebody kit and CF bonnet on your S15. I can see you love your car and kudos for efforts.

Just that in terms of my personal preference, if you use a GT style kit like CWest, the rest of your car should have a cohesive "time attack" kind of styling.

I think bigger brakes, 17/18 inch forged rims plus a GT wing will make the looks more coherent... Something along the line of Sunline Racing S15 (which also uses a CWest GT kit in carbonfibre) as below:

Though I think the decals will be a bit too much for a street car

Just my opinion. Pls dun be offended, I think your car looks good right now but not cohesive to me yet.

Not offended mate its good people have there own ideas. Big brakes are on the list 345mm on the front to start. As for the BGW sorry no chance of that I like the lines of the car as they are without some BGW stickin out of the rear.The rims on it are 19" and they were changed a while ago it did have 20's on it:wack:. I loved the Carbon Kit and if I had the money it would be on it now. Thanks for your comments though

A quick question, will you be able to see the spoiler thru the rear mirror(interior), im thinking about getting one just wondering about that...haha

 

[S15RKM]

What type of spoiler do you mean the DuckTail type as I have fitted or a BGW:wack:?

 

[lj~R]

Duck Tail one as mine (nz new one) flew away :wack: while I was driving.So glad it didn't hit any vehicles... Now Im looking for one which can cover the orginal holes and still can be see thru rear mirror.

When I get in the car later I will take a couple of pics thru the rear window and in the mirror and post them up tomorrow so you can get an idea of what it looks like ok

There wasnt much point in taking a pic as I couldnt see it thru the rear window when I looked thru it or in the rear view mirror, does not obscure view at all. Hope this helps

Playing with a spray can:wack:

 

[S15RKM]

[S15RKM]

When I removed the ducktail found out its a genuin Nissan part cool :-

I think it looks better with the spoiler back on

Was a bit of a bitch to get the locking mech to work again with the key plenty of fibre glass removal but its working now :thumbs:

 

[Nicely]

Yep, better with the spoiler. And, sorry, better with the original boot...

 

[LuPix_S15]

Ooh nice new carbon bits mate!!


Yeah spoiler looking good dude... nice1 :thumbs:

 

[subzero]

love the carbon , but id go the whole hog and get a carbon spoiler to match.

 

[Trial_S15]

Very nice :thumbs: I prefer it without the spoiler but I would Are you planning on painting it??

 

[S15RKM]

Yep, better with the spoiler. And, sorry, better with the original boot...

I know where your coming from mate but I had a little rust on my boot see pic :-

And the price quoted for that little bit of work was about £200 and I wanted the whole thing painting, it worked out cheaper to buy this and it will never rust. By the way the spoiler is not attached yet, the pics are of it resting on the boot, as im still contemplating the spoiler situation and whether to get a new one. I still luv this one but no-one knows what it is, its from Mint's Ebisu gallery :-

Has anyone ideas on its make?
I was thinking of a carbon spoiler please feel free to post pics of spoilers here any type you like and maybe I will pick one

I think you could be right but it looks soooo square from the back and my car is full of curves now im in a dilema so keep and pics of spoilers coming or should I just stick with the ducktail

Do you mean the 326power one dude is that the same one as is in your thread. The red one looks a bit lower and more slope at the sides?

 

[Trial_S15]

I know there are a few cars on here with similar but I reckon this kinda set up would suit your car best :thumbs: I know if I had the money I'd have a cf origin roof spoiler :nod:
