Just a thought, has anyone put a GTO spoiler on a Z? if so, what did/would it look like? probably pants, just seen a GTO, just a thought...

Ta- daaaaa http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=138406&highlight=gto+spoiler

Doesn't look right at all.

can't quite suss why it's got that base on it, looks like it's just been sat on the boot, and what's that brake light all about? doesn't look much like a gto spoiler, must have butchered, erm, doctored it.... :)

The base is the active aero bit I think. I get the impression that it sits into a recess on the gto? There would also be more than one model of GTO spoiler im sure. (I.e different between active aero and non active aero)

 

I must admit im not a fan, I like the idea but it just doesnt really work for me on our cars.

this is the one i meant...

I think the spoiler you posted there is a non active aero spoiler from an NA

 

http://www.gtouk.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=29338 - it does mention but not show the spoiler on there although it does show some different versions of 3000gt spoiler

this is the one i meant...

Might as well just buy a 99-spec that fit correctly. :confused:

this thread was supposed to be called 'READY for a slating', haha

I'm obviosly the only ones who appreciates things that are a little different on here lol.

 

I actually like the GTO spoiler on that silver Z apart from the base. I think if the base had been chopped then it would have looked pretty good so the normal N/A one will probably look a lot better

You do have some odd tastes from what I've seen! LOL. Do remember that being 'different' isn't automatically a ticket to something looking nice. ;)

I totally understand that lol. but "nice" is to each and their owns taste. I have seen some atrocities over the years too. The germans have a taste for putting 2 foot long front splitter things on their cars?? never understood that. can't seem to find any pics now though, one of the local garages had a ton of them on the wall for a laugh.

like i said, it was only summet i thought about when one went past, could pick one up for peanuts from a scrappers, i can see it not looking too bad, prefer mine smooth 'at the moment' anyways tho!

if you like it do it bud. It would be boring if we were all the same LOL:wink:

Nothing ever does to you Si :tongue:

The base is for the active aero as this is a TT spoiler not a NA one, on the GTO the tail gate is shaped to accomodate the lip. Without it the active aero doesn't work, when I get the car sprayed there will be some major work to cut, shape and blend it to have a better fit until then it is fitted like that, it's better than driving round like a tw*t in a Corsa with a primer body kit.

hey mate, no offence intended! your right about driving about with it primed tho, as i was saying, i quite like em, with that bit chopped off, will look tasty i reckon.... i didn't think i had seen one of those before, just the NA one...
