The R body work looks great. How did you increase the track width to match the wider body? Different wheel halves in the rear or use the '12 RSR '13 R rear suspension links? What front tire size will you use now? Just curious. We are in the process of upgrading a 07 RSR to 12 bodywork.

So more aero isn't neccesarily bad. ;-) Shock pots are cheap and easy to install. You should do it for sure.

This is the only way to do it, any other way and its just for looks and you are penalizing yourself with more drag, you have plenty of power for the drag especially with a turbo motor.
The 997.1 and 997.2 Cups in Bathurst were pulling the 2014 GT3R down the back straight.
How much HP does your beast have?
What wheel widths are you using?
Are you sure you will have enough front aero with the 2014 GT3R wing?

Yes shock pots rear are easy, but front is not and I must unlock shock pots in my motec and it will cost like 1000 dollars

12x18 front and 13x18 rear
I'm just not doing the rear, front fenders also and i using my Rsr front bumper that have better aero then R and cup
I did get the rear wing and front aero working nice last year so I hope I will achieve something similar this year

We also went with all the late rsr rear suspension. I was surprised at how much wider it is. Looks like matching the rsr bumper to the R fenders will be a challenge. Are you running a full undertray and wheel liner set as well?

Venting around the Wheelhouse area is a great improvement. Specially for a car like yours. More frontal downforce is crucial.

I haven't used my front plate / front spitter last year. I think that that will be a big improvement also
