OK I'm excited again 😅

at my local track..

"Zs love a square setup" Nice, plus rotateable.

His personal Z was one of my favourites at ZCon, the Seibon carbon really goes well with the car/accentuates some of the S30 styling IMO:

Yeah nicely done, low key, not overdone. The carbon bits compliment the Zs shape, not disrupt it.

So, you flew from down under for ZCON? Very nice!

Even just the carbon wing goes really well. Would have been great to see one on a blue.

ZCon luckily lined up with another trip! Pretty wild-was only in the US a couple of days. Got straight out to that Autowerkz show after landing, the motorsports events/tech talks Friday, and the show Saturday. Was all a bit surreal especially after just getting my car!

That's an interesting choice of rim size. He went with a 9.5" square. Looks to be 275's maybe 285's square.

Thing about tracking is, very common for square setups for rotatability, longer tread life. Track tires get used up very quickly so it's much more economical.

Yeah, totally aware of benefits of a square setup and plan to go square myself more than likely, but was more so talking about the 9.5” considering that our cars came with 10” or 10.5” (for Nismo) in the rear and knowing that 10.5” fits fine up front. I would have thought he would choose at least 10” square and would expect 10.5”….
