You just transfer your hardware over.

We aren't 100% sure how much the window will be. We'd like to put it into the existing price of the hatch, and we *think* we can. Just depends on our supplier. If anything, it'll be a very small amount to add it in.

Very few.

The window bonds in place, so it might be complicated. The recess for the area is on the outside, so it'll hinge in the wrong direction. It'd be like a houses front door opening out...

Looks awesome, If you guys made s14 fiberglass doors I would buy them right now! **hint**hint**

GripTerror · 09-20-2010, 08:25 AM

this is pretty nice i wonder how the fitment is

what is the weight difference between the frp, carbon and carbon/kevlar versions?

hellion240sx · 09-22-2010, 02:46 PM

really nice, how big is the widow opening? cause i liked the view from the hatch. but this is sexy!

RurouniMidnight · 09-22-2010, 04:38 PM

Not the same but i found this pic to just show another look at how an inverted hatch looks.

hellion240sx · 09-23-2010, 08:29 AM

the only thing you can fit back there are 5 year old kids, teens + their knee's stab your back.

ChaserAero · 09-23-2010, 10:08 AM

I had a lot of people asking if this would work with a cage...hopefully this quick paint shop edit will help:

GenPac · 09-23-2010, 10:27 AM

Forget about looking through your hatch quarter windows to your blind spots. Wouldn't be real practical on a daily but it definetly adds an exotic look. Anyone that actually has driven a 240 with this that can attest to the vision occusion?

accidents in back seats cause kids

ChaserAero · 09-27-2010, 02:12 PM

Bump, got a few slots left guys...get em while we have em!

siksyndicate · 09-27-2010, 04:27 PM

i realize transferring over your hardware would be simple but I've owned many FRP and CF hoods and trunks.....with that said, sometimes in extreme heat your shocks/struts for your hood/trunks are way too strong forcing the lightweight material up. This will cause warping near the attachment points resulting in uneven lines. Usually new lower rate struts are needed. Will this be the case with this hatch?

Im very interested in this product, just curious as to the R&D involved

Is this piece going to become a regular part of the chaser catalog or is this a limited time piece?
