We have had so many requests over the last 12 months, we have decided to extend our carbon fibre range for the Mighty Nissan GTR.

since the lauch of our wide body progamme, we have had our loyal GTR dealers requesting us to manufacture a replacement roof, as the product that is currently on the market is just not good enough, when you spend $5000 dollars on a branded roof you expect perfection not imperfection, which is what we have seen with a few of the so called market leading product, so we have decided to manufacture our own and its now available for sale.

Other parts that we decided to manufacture is our very own Bonnet, bootlid and doors for all the race inspired track GTR that are looking for the ultimate light weight product, the doors are particuarly special, especially when fitted with our quick release hinges, they are an absolute must have if your looking to save weight.

For more details on any of our GTR carbon products, get in touch with us, especially if your looking to buy super light weight high quality carbon fibre product.


When Bryce built his dream GTR he put his trust into people and companies that should not have been anywhere near the car, but we will cover that in some detail in our up and coming update, as they say hindsight is a wonderful thing and its lessons learned for Bryce, he knew all too well the car would need to go back into surgery and with him being based in Afghanistan for the best part of the last 9 months what better time to hand his pride and joy over to the capable hands of Destin from Dapper Dips.

We are going to bring you a fully detailed build thread on the transformation of Bryce's GTR as we feel the time and effort that Destin has put in to this build deserves a post all of its own, the journey to get this build the paint work it demands has been a long and frustrating one, but in traditional head down arse up the end result is incredible , we have no doubt this is one transformation that will fill up every social media platform over the next few months.

Kudos to Destin for not only driving to collect the GTR but also but the time and effort into getting the car looking the way it does now and then the return journey delivering back to Bryce and Taylor, considering the GTR is based in Colorado and Dapper Dips is based in Evansville Indiana, so a nice touch and incredible service, we only now fully appreciate the lengths he has gone to, making sure Bryce has exactly what he wanted, we just can’t wait to bring you the story of the full build, as well looking forward to round two from Brandon C/O Woyshnis media and his amazing skill set, such a mouth-watering prospect of what is to come for Bryce and the Ichiban GT3 GTR.

 

 

Global time attack builds and the costs to win must be enormous, just the engine side alone you have to invest crazy money, being does not mean much if you have not got the handling to match all that power, you need good suspension and good aero, which is why there is an increase on light weight aero parts, you only have to look at some of the creations of WTAC in Sydney Australia to see the cars just more radical every year, they look and sound crazy and they all have one aim... winning.

We have started to get more involved with the supply of our carbon parts over the last couple of years, we have a few Porsche 997 GT3R around the globe as well as a few Porsche 996 and one build we were extremely pleased y to be involved with was the amazing GTR of David Haagsma, we featured the car a few weeks back and its one very impressive build, the SP Engineering engine tune alone is the best part of $40,000, if not more, then you have the trick JRZ Suspension set up, carbon brakes and other radical areas of build, so when David came calling for our carbon fibre Ichiban aero kit, we were happy to get involved.

The kit consists of the usual suspects of body work you need to create the a wider look, so front and rear bumpers, front fenders rear quarters as the most popular panels supplied, our front splitter is the complete front floor, as is the rear diffuser, albeit David used an RHR diffuser than Scott from SicChops mated up to our rear bumper set up.

Another neat touch we love about David's GTR is the huge bonnet vents he has added to his Seibon standard look oem style carbon bonnet, they are huge and there are a lot of them which makes for a very angry looking front end, its very intimidating to look at, to finish off the aero David has added a huge rear wing assembly from the APR crew, with a set of 18" slicks complete the build.

We look forward to seeing David hit the track, and if previous years are anything to go by, then his competition should worry, as he will take some stopping when he finally gets out on circuit.

We are now looking to jump on-board with the Australian crew from The Lowdown and one of there friends and customers who are looking to put together one serious GTR for the WTAC next year, so our light weight Ichiban is now under consideration for the main aero parts for this crazy up and coming build.
