ok i have a 93' fastback in which i am doing an s13 silvia front conversion. i feel like there is something missing though, a wing. i like the 180sx kouki wing but then again i wanna get something different. i totally love the sileighty from ID and i wanted mine to look something like it since im getting my paint job in a few. is that a wangan wing or is it a oem wing????

if you want to see a wangan wing, just google Benson or Sileighty or sileightymania.

At least it's actually a 180. hehehe

I wonder how many people would hate on it if they knew it was Yokota's car. ooops spilled the beans. I'm not a fan of that car, but I just don't like hatches. His Cedric is the **** though.

I'm not a big fan of the ducktail wings like the Wangan. Porsche pulled it off nicely on the 944 but they just don't work for me on the 240sx. If I put one back on our hatchback it will be the GP Sports 3 piece that is more subtle.

it has to be the right kind of wangan wing to work, some are too angled, some are too long, etc. i'll try and find some pics that i think are acceptable

+1 I like how the GP Sports one is really subtle. When I get a wing that will be the one.

The only car I like with a wangan wing is this car.





For some reason I think it just looks super mean. Could be just a couple inches lower though.

that car is ugly.. you dont rock fender flares with sportmax 962s and especially that size on an s13.. maybe 501's with the car slammed but thats about it.

its not ugly it just needs some work, front fender flares dont go w/ rear overfenders and u need a non-stock front bumper to pull that look off
