good find! It's about time we got one, other than the L'aunsport one that is impossible to get and is eleventy billion yen :lol:
I wonder which vendors will jump on this, hope the prices are reasonable

| clsmooth71 | 06-30-2005 09:16 PM |
sorry, but those things are ugly as hell! :huh:
| ittybitty_STI | 06-30-2005 10:32 PM |
Those are hot! how would that look with the rear window visor? how would you go about to purchace one of those?? and those carbon brake duct?
| Whiplash | 06-30-2005 10:55 PM |
I dont know why.. but I really like that.
| Hefe_sti_Pma | 06-30-2005 11:06 PM |
there are avaible for subaru�s??...if its yes where can i buy one of does?...i like that vortex generators
| CVR Motorsports | 06-30-2005 11:20 PM |
Nice piece, def. worth looking into providing there is interest ;) Pm me if your needing more info :)
| DeeBoy | 06-30-2005 11:21 PM |
oh shizzy!! i want it!! That and a Syms Carbon wing would look so sweet together! Someone Tell JDMaddict to get it!! XD
| silverF4turbo | 07-01-2005 12:54 AM |
The more I think about it the more I'm starting to want it :D
| Scott Farmer | 07-01-2005 01:28 AM |
Yeah, but how fast do you have to be going to activate any significant amount of downforce with one of those?

[QUOTE=Scott Farmer]Yeah, but how fast do you have to be going to activate any significant amount of downforce with one of those?[/QUOTE]
significant downforce?
i'd say about eleventy billion.
IIRC it's not there to create downforce, it's there to direct air unidirectionally over the wing, much like the SWRT wing's dividers.
if you don't see it on the rally car, chances are it's not very functional.
sure does look tight though.

I'd prefer it in black like the evo's.

but 39900 yen is like $US 360 right now...

:eek: Been waiting for one. Liked it on my cousin's EVO MR. Would like it on my WRX.
| fireball_jones | 07-01-2005 11:04 AM |
Looks cool, and in WRB it really would be the sonic the hedgehog look... but how is it mounted up there?

I too like those brake ducts. They would go well with the arc windmaster panels.

zerosports make brake ducts like that. Seen them in person and they are sweet. Have to find a vendor that doesnt charge a first born son to get it,
| fantabulous | 07-02-2005 11:21 PM |
sweet find, and its carbon fiber.
umm... carbon fiber.

[QUOTE=Scott Farmer]Yeah, but how fast do you have to be going to activate any significant amount of downforce with one of those?[/QUOTE]
it by itself creates ZERO downforce
what it does is it energizes the boundary layer airflow so that the smooth laminar flow "sticks" to the rear window instead of the air seperating (like when it rains and you see water floating around in the middle of the rear window, the flow has seperated) so that the wing gets a better flow making the wing more efficient
there's my aero geek explination

Any pic of the Zerosport duct?
| WRX Ver.7 | 07-26-2005 09:41 PM |
I really like that piece. It would be a c/f addition to a car with carbon hood, trunk, and Prodrive wing. I agree with ittybitty-STi about the addition of that with a rear window visor/roof spoiler.
| Golfa | 07-27-2005 11:54 AM |
we need a/some vendor(s) to get on this! We need a group buy ASAP!!
| distorto | 07-27-2005 12:21 PM |
how does it attach?
| Calamity Jesus | 07-27-2005 02:01 PM |
I could almost guarantee to you that it's fastened on with 3M double-sided tape.
| Phy6 | 07-27-2005 04:56 PM |
I wonder if this would interfere with a roof vent...

Nope, it is located on the back of the roof like the EVO MR.

| jmanrex | 07-27-2005 06:09 PM |
we definately need to get some vendor to at least stock these if they don't do a group buy--i mentioned it to z-1 on his group buy but everyone wanted a rear diffuser instead
| ADR 04STi | 07-27-2005 06:16 PM |
Beaverboy : You mean "JDM" 3M tape :lol: . I cant see any other way to mount it.
| shemoves | 07-27-2005 06:27 PM |
works out to a bit over $350...how functional is it on vehicles without wings?
| stiraspecc | 07-27-2005 06:48 PM |

| Rex87 | 07-27-2005 11:49 PM |
Yea I was curious if it would have any significant effect on a WRX with just the OEM spoiler??

They also called them sharks teeth on the MR. The EVO's look larger and is set back on the rear glass. This one mounts more on the roof. Wonder if that effects anything and was this actually wind tunnel tested? Will it perform as well on the WRX's spoiler?

If you use 3M Automotive Tape and prepare the surfaces correctly, it should hold just fine. The rear lip spoiler on the trunk of the BMW M3 (E46) is held on with double-sided tape.

i know there was a thread about someone selling these on ebay for $200 but the location was fishy -- i am not going to be the ginea pig on that
and they are held on by 3m tape -- if the piece comes off you did something wrong because that tape is good and strong in all weather conditions
