Although I have no official specs, but from my own handling of both sets of chairs, I can tell the current brides are around half of the weight to the original sports chair. Sitting position is way lowered which is a big plus!

I can understand there are lots of love/hate towards the additional rear spoiler. But I have been itching for a car with GT wing for a long long time so it is worth for me to get this OEM M4 M performance wing as the possible "off the factory" look.

Personally I wouldn't change a thing. The entire car including the rear spoiler looks very proportional to me - love it!

What suspension are you running?

Thank you for your kind words. I am running KW V3 and really impressed with it.

Thanks you for your comment.

My wheels are Advan GT 19" 8.5J x 9.5J ; tyres RE71R 235/35/19 x 255/35/19

It seems without tuning the cambers, this is the most aggressive I can go for.

Very nice build! Actually think the spoiler would look even nicer if the stands are 1-2 inches higher!

Lol the Gt wing was designed as one piece carbon ornament.

Hong Kong? I like the car build but not such a big fan of the spoiler. But if you actually track it and has a practical use then never mind us!

Thank you. Once my new turbo (and upgraded cooling solution becomes available) are installed, I am looking at allocating a few days for mainland track days and holiday. For those, I have to apply for a special driving permit if I am looking to drive the car from Hong Kong to race track all the way.

The rear spoiler do make some difference in highway. Not so at turns.

A local shop had the Gias 2 Japan and F30 rack in stock... therefore not much wait was needed.
