I thinks that's probably quite accurate, when your weight saving grams at a time I think the aerodynamic benefits from a good setup would be the same as adding lightness! But when it comes down to lap times in the real world without extensive testing in a wind tunnel I have no idea lol. It will no doubt be fun playing around with different setups though.

Ere Jimmer, he must still be getting some parachute effect on his rear bumper getting above the diffuser and pulling it down as the diffuser won't be causing downforce. (Queue open can of worms!) As the air flows under the car, its pressure drops to create a downforce, this needs to peak at the red wheels but the it needs to be dumped. If you have lots of downforce at the breakaway point at the rear the air will be turbulent and cause drag. The diffuser should, just after the rear wheels, increase the air pressure and slow down the airflow speed (diffusion) and effectively cause lift in that area. The design principle is mainly to slow down the airflow as much as possible so that when it breaks away and exits the airflow under the car, it matches the ambient air velocity/pressure around it and in turn (the target outcome) reduces the drag at the back end. I hope I don't sound like too much of a toffee nose tvvat but its all interesting stuff I suppose! I know the principles but I cannot tell you what the results are likely to be in terms of performance, handling gains, I think Dave, legrath, is the man to ask about that.

New 300zx tt owner!!
If you want to sort your stock wheels, don't forget, as its a uk spec, the rear wheels are wider than a jap spec so bare that in mind when or if you need to purchase any. Personally I'd 'sling' a set of 18's on it :)

Don't get me wrong I'm no pro at race car builds. That was just based on my experience of working with these materials and the properties as far as I understand.
