Unfortunately I experienced a scary thing as I was racing and the front of my car lifted up while doing over 132mph.I am saving for a Coilover set but for now a great help in this problem will be a Diffuser.Anyone know where I can get one and how much as well as where the pistons mount to hold it up?

To answer the Q of "what is a diffuser?" its the little black carbonfiber lip on the front of a car (with the little silver "Rods" or pistons that hold it on the car)
that serves a purpose of keeping your car on the ground.

 

^ that and canards....maybe get one custom made...i dunno...kinda been wanting one for my kenstyle for awhile now.....both front and rear....to get rid of the rear end parachute effect...

 

i think what you guys are describing are not diffusors..

Your talking about a splitter.

There's a few others. I remember someone wanting to put one on their RA a short time ago but I can't find the thread right now.

 

the ones in the front are spliters...rear is a diffuser....and canards are the little front wings

 

^ there we go.

 

Carbontrix sells one, looks tight!

 

The front of your car lifted doing 132? I dont know much, but is that even possible at only 132? Windy out?

 

It is possible and it WILL happen with the RA as the RA is drag limited at 132.It wasnt windy at all.

Yes The right terms Splitter,Diffuser and canards.. Carbon Trix only has the Splitter tho.I need all 3.. But I guess for now a splitter will work.I looked up Carbon Trix and they are priced at $199. Not too bad.. If you know where I can find the other 2 parts it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Go to www.ceriousperformance.com (look under Universal items)....They have C-Wings items (one of the best CF parts maker from Japan)....good stuff!

 

Not to hyjack the thread or anything...but what can you change bodywise to change the drag limited max speed? If you got a more aerodynamic kit you - in theory - can push that drag coefficient to maybe 145-150mph??

 

you can get canards almost everywhere lol..not to be taken litteral...anywho, mitsu makes some, and check ebay

 

I've pushed the RA to the max on many occasions, topped out at 138, used a GPS to track speed where the needle stopped. and the front didn't lift.
