hood isnt bolted down... the hood(daimyo) itself actually fits pretty good, on the other hand i also have a DMAX hood which really really really fits like garbage...its my fender positioning that sux, i mounted the fenders a little wide for clearance.

Yeah that is what Im struggling with right now. I am a perfectionist so it bugs me to see inconsistant gaps and edges. I just have to take it with a grain of salt as no aftermarket part will fit like stock. I like the look of your new hood, just hope it fits better once you get it installed. I assume you will get it shot to match the rest of the car? Keep us update!

Really? I don't know if the little gap would actually make a big air pressure difference. I'll have to test it. It sound like a good idea, but you have raised some concerns. Hm. Thank you

Why do you think muscle cars have the huge cowl in their hoods? Because at speed that spot becomes a high pressure zone, and air will get sucked into the engine bay via the cowl, and their air cleaner for their carb is right there sucking that air in. Someone w/ an S-chassis also have tested it with some strips of tape on their hood. They watched their direction as they drove around, and I believe he said at around 40mph the strips started to get sucked in toward the engine bay. Anything lower than that the tape just fluttered around. At idle though, the air was definitely coming out of the engine bay. |

its all good man, no need to defend me. it is what it is...
i'm a student, i cant buy exactly everything i want... in time, all the parts will be pretty dope (in my opinion) but for now, the parts get the job done... as said before, i'm not gonna let the manufacturer name of my products stop me from driving the car to the best of my ability.

You Risky Devil guys doing anything tomorrow? I'm going to be in Chicago trading my car. It would be chill if I could meet some of you. There aren't many S-chassis guys in my area of Michigan.

Last time I was in Chicago, according to Google Maps the hotel I was staying at was a block over from Touge Factory. I drove around for two hours searching for it and never found it.

I was also supposed to hang out with Edgar and DS people and go with them to a Risky Devil social, but my phone broke the day I was to call him, haha. It was still a fun trip though. Definitely one of my favorite cities. |
