AIT Racing GTR Kit Prototype

[Beatrice]

Okay, so I went to AIT yesterday to see what was up with everything. John showed me the finished front end and it looks exactly like the kit on the blue sedan in the above posts ^^. After seeing it up close, let me tell you, the build quality on that thing is superb. It even has this genuine carbon fiber lip along the bottom of it, which looks super sick. The rest of the kit I'm not going to say whether I personally like it or not, but that lip is the business.

As for the rest of the kit, they are still working on it. They're putting together skirts and a rear bumper. I didn't really get to see the skirts because they are still tinkering with different ideas, but I did get to see a concept of the rear bumper, and I think you guys will be pleasantly surprised. Again, I'm going to reserve my own opinion, but I'll just say it looks pretty much like the back of a real GTR. It will be an option for those of you who think the ED rear is a little too agressive. John said they're thinking of keeping the carbon fiber theme going, but doesn't know how to incorporate it into the skirts/rear bumper, which is why it's taking so long. That carbon fiber accent really is nice-looking though.

In other news, their original 5pc kit they made is under production in their overseas factory. John said it should be available by mid-September, but you know how that goes. He also told me that he's heard a lot of interest in that trunk with the molded wing, so he's decided to make it in both carbon fiber and fiberglass also available in September. He's also producing a carbon fiber roof overlay, which is still in development, and he showed me a finished carbon fiber roof wing. It sits at the top of the rear window. He also said something about a carbon fiber hood, but he could have been talking about an existing hood, or maybe he's making one of those too--I didn't ask. Either way, AIT is becoming a powerhouse when it comes to A/C body mod offerings, so show AIT and John some love.

Oh, and I also mentioned something about how people on the forum were expressing interest in a wide body kit, or at least some wide-body fenders, and he said he might consider it, since ED is the only company right now offering any kind of fender. So, if any of you are interested in a wide body kit or wider fenders, you should email or call them and push it. I wouldn't mind being able to fit 19x9.5 +10 wheels with fat a** lip, now that I think about it either.

On a side note, AIT had some guy's GTR. They are working on a wide body kit for it. It was on stilts with all the body panels taken off... I cried a little on the inside seeing that.

And I know what you guys are all thinking... PICS???!?!?!?!? I... uh... forgot to charge the camera... so... uh... I don't have any. sorry! sorry! *scampers away*

Oh, and I forgot to add, John's been making some calls seeing what he can do to get more parts out for the A/C. He said he's been in contact with K-Sport for some coilovers and a light company to produce some projector headlights and led tails for us. He said something else about some other parts, but I don't remember now what they were. I know there's some stuff on the market already in these areas, but more options is always a good thing

I emailed them about making some wide body fenders a few months ago but didnt get a reply. But I guess they did get it. But um yea man, tellem to look on the forums and see how many people were interested in the wide body option. I think theres another post about wide body fenders. DOOOOO IIIIITTTTTTT!!!!!!!!

just emailed you please help me out lol

I gotta go dig around to find the dude's card, but I'll email you John's number later and maybe you'll be able to talk him into it. I think he's mainly interested in SEMA... not so much HIN or any similar showoffs because I asked him if he wanted me to show my car at all anywhere, and he said he didn't care. Oh, and he's also interested in $$$. Then again, what do I know, I'm not a mind reader.

Good luck.

[rjdmmfl1]

actually, I saw it in person at our SOCAL meet this past weekend... the Sedan bumper looks better in real life than it does on pictures! It DEFINITELY looks like the fron of an EVO X , but I still like it in person

[Jose3.5]

I got pictures at Stillen with The GTR in the middle and the Altima GTR in the background and then another one with the GTR and the EVO X in the background. All 3 were very similar.

Hey this may let the cat out of the bag but the lip is going to be modular to give everyone the ability to customize it to their needs. So far it will be available in Carbon Fiber and a paintable version. I did request for them to make a Carbon Fiber splitter option for those of you who don't want the bumper as low since the regular lip is almost 2 inches thick.

I'll let you know what I find out.

thanks N4L

quick question (sorry to get off topic) since your body kit is made out of fiberglass, how does it hold up with the daily driving?
