Right on, don't give in, even when the guy knows what he wants already.

"what kind of wing" FC's come stock with TWO (2) differnt wings..(oem) you dont need ANY others...
one wing came off the 1986-1988 GTU,GXL?
it was desinged in the wind tunnel sits flush with the body...the second is the more aero look of the turboII wing and the S5 GTU wing....pick one of those and use nothing else...

One that you should not consider putting on your FC.
Doing so will result in the act of desecration which will result in exile from the rotary commmunity.

The FC didn't come with a OEM wing.

It's a spoiler.

speaking of wings / spoilers, what is the name of the one that looks just like the s5 TII / GTU wing but just a little larger? I remember seeing it in a pic on here somewhere but can't find it now, that is my fav.

My Junx: The one you are thinking of was a Japanese version it was listed in the Infini IV JDM look thread. It has ABS emblazoned on the underside as well.

About that wing Steven, on that car it doesn't look too awful, but one thing is, that car is 5000 in bodywork alone add the rims and you have like 6500+. Unless you are going to do the whole thing it is going to look half assed. I would say stick with a less outrageous design for now, at least until you can save up enough for the whole RE kit. Just my .02 but with the 400 dollars you will spend on that wing you could have already upgraded your fuel pump, bought a nice exhaust system, or done something else that would end up making the car more fun down the line.
