Nissan GTR Wide Body Aero Styling


We have been working hard over the last few months with our composite partners on a few new products, and we are super happy with what we will launch over the next few months, we are updating our Porsche programme, adding the wide body aero for the latest 991R as well as a new set of wide body clothing for the Porsche Cayman, both available in full carbon fibre, the Cayman will have a GRP option too, as we have a feeling the Cayman market will demand a cheaper material, so we can mix it up depending on customers’ requirements.

One product we launched recently was our all new wide body Nissan GTR ICHIBAN aero styling pack, with a hint of GT1, GT3, which is where our inspiration comes from as we love that styling, and yet again we have gone for a full rear quarter over the popular over fender that some seem to favor.

The first kit is heading to the states, Georgia to be exact, where our good friend Bryce Jenkins, who can’t wait to rip his Nissan GTR to pieces, so were pretty excited as this is going to be one spectacular build if his Nissan 350Z is anything to go by, as that was by far the best Rocket Bunny Z build we have seen to date, a bold statement, but a true one, we have yet to see one come remotely close to what Bryce put together, so we wait with anticipation on this up and coming build.

Wide Body Nissan GTR


Always good to see cars we put together surface within the car community and hit the market. this particular GTR is quite a controversial one within the VAD organisation, as in 2014 it saw the company split and part ways the Body-shop section that was based in Wellingborough Northampton, which has since closed or morphed in to a new name, were not 100% sure what happened, but since the split we haven't looked back, we have simply gone from strength to strength, and we now work with a couple of body shops that took our aero products to a whole new level.

This GTR was originally built for Jerrick at Meister R to help him sell his standard black edition, due to him emigrating to the USA, he wanted something that would stand out, we had been selling the carbon wide body programme with quite a bit of success, so Jerrick was keen to offer his car for the build and get it out on the market, it sold pretty quickly and new owner Trevor has enjoyed his unicorn GTR for the last couple of years, when we caught up with Trevor at the back end of 2016, he said he gets more attention in the GTR than he does in his Ferrari 458 Cabriolet, well lets face it, looking like this why wouldn't it.

The car is now up for sale and we can confirm in the short term Trevor has owed the car, he has racked up only 2,000 miles, the spec list is huge and it’s an amazing looking car in the flesh, so if you want to grab yourself a stunning carbon fibre wide body GTR give the guys at Classic Connection Cars of Burley a call, and tell them VAD sent you.

Wide Body R35 GTR


Its been a while since we have had any news on this amazing looking GTR, but looking at the latest set of pictures, its been worth the wait. The owner Ben of BPA Body shop has been extremely busy, so his personal pride and joy unfortunately had to take a back seat, something we can relate to with our own build, when you are a small business you have to prioritise, and your own personal get put together as and when.

We have been waiting so long for someone to build a white GTR with our wide body and Ben didn't disappoint, its breath taking finish is a credit to his craft, its impeccable, and he has a great eye for attention to detail, with the Nismo 2015 red pinstripe being added to the bottom half of the kit, along with a carbon bonnet with exposed carbon vents, the black roof and black diffuser, splitter and side skirts, he really did hit the sweet spot on the overall look of the car, some people don’t seem to like the black stripe in between the rear lights, but we do, its different and its nice to see someone thinking outside of the usual GTR box.

The engine is heavily modified, albeit we have no idea what changes have been made, all we know is its had certain tuned modifications, so it should be plenty quick enough for most peoples speed needs.

Its all be finished off with some gloss black VAD CR EVO in 12x21 front and 13x21 rear, wrapped in 355/25R21 Pirelli Rubber.

We said when this car was started to be constructed that it was going to turn out pretty special, and it really hasn't disappointed, it’s a credit to Ben and his team, and were extremly please there is yet another VAD wide body GTR on UK roads.
