    ^^ Wow any videos of this car in action? Would love to hear that s14 scream. What kind of power figures are you making?

    tilted, fully sealed, and ducted rad+oil cooler from bumper to hood; also home made with an old aluminum road sign and some roof flashing using rivets

    splitter is home made diy job; adjustable from about 4-8 inches; all aircraft aluminum bolts(they look heavy but are in grams), made out of 1/2" sandyply hardwood and extends to behind the subframe in length

    rear custom ltw evo replica wing

    Is that an Alpina spoiler with the center part blocked off?

    How did the E36 dive plates fit to the spoiler? Any modifications?

    What are the brake duct plenums you're using?
    No mods to conards. I got brake cooling plenums from Summit Racing. It was direct fit.

    Yes it is Alpina spoiler. My splitter goes as far as oil pan and it is bolted to skid plate. It is actually very sturdy, been of track couple times and it stayed intacked. As mention before conards is from e36. It is not the fit it wanted to be but I think it will work. My idead was to mount it a bit higher so I would cover tires and would re-direct drag from it. As it is mounted now, it should pick up air from splitter and blow it from tires. At least I think so. I might be wrong here. I will be at Road America this weekend, which is very fast track, and will see how it feels. My buddy told me I might have too much drag and might have to choose either splitter or conards. Will see

    Oh snap - I didn't notice that before! Good eye.

    Look good with that, and supposedly, the Alpina spoilers are (claimed) designed as functional. Be curious to see what difference it did offer with out the added dive planes and splitter.

    That looks decent (and functional.)

    how far under the body does your splitter come back?

    Something like that will help block air to the tire and also help downforce.

    Looks great! I'd like to say that aero is next for the track car I co-own, but we have so many other projects to do first. When we get around to tit, something like this would be perfect.

    It never ends!

    Is your wing mounted to the trunklid or does it go through it to the chassis?
