rear window vents ??

hi i recently went to the last mascrat manor meet in Warrington. There was a chap who i wish i had spoken to. He had a silver supra and on his rear side windows he had some black wind sort of vents that fit onto the window. I have never seen these before were can any get them. they would look superb on mine:search:

it was Jase93tt's car mate

Don't know anyone that does them in the UK - he has a mate in Japan, and I can't remember whether he said they were on the car when he got it, or whether he got them from his friend.

There was a guy down this way with some on a black car too - not my cuppa mind.

sounds like a good man to know. cheers matey.

I'll hunt him down:thumbs:

yea just thought they looked really different. Give it that different look. just hope he's there on the next mascrat meet.

That'll be me then. Although obviously not your cup of tea, "stupid" is a bit harsh.

Awful maybe, but like you said mate not everyones cup of tea, remind me of the rear window vents on a Capri/Cortina

Mine aint the gold one mate, but I know the vents on the Capri you mean. Mines the black car referred to earlier, pics in my garage.

I may be able to source you a set of these ones if they are still available.

Good find Nic

pehaps not stupid, just why!!!

if it was an mr2, then pehaps as it can duct air directly into the engine.

does it serve a purpose?

The same reason people put kits on there cars

perhaps. but air forcing into the rear 1/4 windows?

floats ure boat

I think most aplications are just for 'show' rather than actually doing anything.

Now I am no techie but surly putting big pods like that on the side of the car will increase the drag and infact lower the speed. There was one of these on a supra I saw years ago and for ages I thought they were mid engine because of them and the rear wheel brake vents.

Exactly. They are only 'dummy' vents. Behind the mesh is a piece of black acrylic so no air actually goes into the pod and is stuck there if you see what I mean.

Some ideas work (looks wise) and some dont. To be totally honest from some angles I dont like them, but Im fairly proud that I made them from scratch and they fit like a big brand might have made them. In the search for individuality you take some risks.

lol.

sure do.

still it must give some wind drag

Who knows. On the subject of drag, we buy all these different bodykits, are any of them actually tested for stuff like this I wonder

nope
