FTO AUSTRALIA

just trying somthing new and want to see what every one thinks.
its not the best as it is only done with paint




it needs some work but like I said I am just trying things to see how it looks.

Not a fan ... Don't really like the wings ...

^^ agreed, but what if you brought it in on each side. so they arent wings more like just vent holes if you know what i mean

yep I see what you mean I will have to give it a try. The only thing with that is it will drop the front very low and then I will have to mod the drivway so I can get in and out lol.

The reason I am looking at doing somthing like this is to try and get a little more down draft on the front end for thr track. I am also going to be looking at building up the wing as well but that will be done with carbon fiber. Looking at getting more of a hook on the top, like a gt wing

Well i sort of meant either cutting the risers and moulding them into the original bar. But if you did the way you just said then you could possibly make up some brackets so that it was removable eg fit it for track days and remove it for normal driving etc.

Do you know, the more i look at it, it now doesnt seem as bad. its very different.

As for downdraft, wats happening on the track? Is she feeling a bit light in the front? What camber and toe are you running and how low is your car?

Yeah i had to make 2 ramps for my driveway and only have about 1mm of clearence Lets just say i have too take it real easy lol

Kind of like the Evo 1-3 front bars .... The real front bars (not the f/g aftermarket ones), you can take the lip off... Quite handy too ...

its not light in the front I just want to hit the turnes harder and faster
as for hight of the car its standard VR hight at this time but that will be changing soon.
and as for the bar looking very different that is what I wanted thats why I cut up the bottom lip of a VS bar and am trying new things with it.

I like it. It makes the front look bigger, which i think makes it look better.

Mate you will notice a massive improvement with lowering and stiffening the suspension. MASSIVE

Good on you man, good to see something different and original.

@ rock it, yeah thats pretty close to what i had in mind

Yeah, the good thing about that front bar is that it is not too low (even with my adjustable suspension pretty low) ... And if I start to find that it is draggin on stuff, I can take it off, and it still looks good without it ...

Yeah thats brilliant, looks good

Reminds me of a hydrofoil:

someone going sledding?

I was thinking the same thing when I first put it under the car, and the hydrofoil came to mind as well

the suspention is hard now as it is, just have to lower it about an inch and that should look the part.
