Just saw this at Driven Authority, a WINFactory spoiler ready for pre-order at $425
This car looks hot with it IMO although I'd prefer the TwinZII rear diffusor over the WINFactory one it has (zoom in a few times), what do you guys think?

oh
my
god...


that is...indeed. WIN. holy hell that's better looking than the flush veilside spoiler i've been looking for.

DO WANT. MOAR.

id even take that rear diffuser. It looks more functional to me, but if i had that spoiler, id go with the twinz diffuser. If i was building a track car id rather have that diffuser.

Im buying one. Screw that. Probably wont do the preorder thing, but im DEFINTIELY. DEFINTELY. Buying THAT spoiler around the same time that I buy better wheels than the kazeras I want.


I will acquire wheels that would make ANYONE on here jellier than a jellyfish. And that's pretty damn jelly, amirite?

That looks awesome if you are into spoilers they really aren't my thing if I ever got one it would either be that one or the new TwinZ one.

Never been a spoiler guy either as I do LOVE the nekkid a** on our Z's, but the Powertrix spoiler has a nice look (and not gaudy) that this spoiler also has- lower profile and fits the body lines FTW!

I started off with a miata before i had my z, so spoilers like this call to me.

Wings, on the other hand, i will stay away from. :eek:

(see "duck tail spoiler for a NA miata.)

Just say NO to wings, unless you like chicken... :chuckle:

I just noticed they are offering a "street" version that is lower profile so they say, same price and availability

I am holding judgement till I see it on more car's. I have some things I don't like with it though, mainly it looks to round to me for our car's rear. That and we don't drive bmw's. I will say I think it will only work on super aggressive car's like Kip's that's pictured.

Agreed...not for a stock-ish setup at all, I think that it would be best on a setup like ArticDragon's and def not mine!
It is a bit round at the trailing edge as you say, maybe the street/less aggressive version is less so? :gotme

Anyone familiar with the tra-kyoto kit on the 240sx? I think if that spoiler plus the winfactory spoiler had babies, it would be great justice!

I'd post a link, but my blackberry is too slow with that type of thing...

Hopefully u guys know what I mean. Hard thing to communicate with no visuals lol

I have the Winfactory rear diffuser and love it, definitely functional as well. Also they are no longer in business since he closed down driven authority.

WTH! I didn't get the memo. Was there any reason posted why he shut it down?

Not exactly - he closed down his shop because he no longer wants to be a grease monkey. Matt decided to change his focus towards solely developing new parts, pretty much exactly what Ash Powers is doing. Apparently, he's working on releasing an aluminum CNC'ed top feed fuel rails to replace the old design, among other things that I'm not yet aware of. Between him and Ash, there should be some awesome new stuff coming our way so I'm stoked!

Looks good, although honestly I have a hard time telling the diff between this one and my Powertrix spoiler on the NA. Seems like the pic on the WinFactory site looked more rounded?
Anyway, congrats!
