Different side pods

[AlexCim]

Seen a few people (race cars only) with these side pods:



Does anyone know where to get them? Can you still run the luggage pods with them? What has to change to fit them?

I like them A LOT!

If you look closely you can see the wheel arches are flared so I guess would not be a straight swap. But anythings possible as its only Fibre Glass. FYI that's the first time I've seen those ones..

+1 and some serious vents on the front too. Don't like very much the front "dam wall" look but it could just be a trick of perspective

check out grasser racing, i think they do different side pods.
You may have to sell your children to buy a set though...

If you look at the rear of the side vent you will notice it enters where the factory fuel tank is sited, so you would need to reposition them (this car probably has it in the passenger seat area or behind the seats). I doubt a luggage container would fit but you don't have to have them anyway - mine didn't.

This car is used to race in Belgium I think you will be able to get it from the team
and a good panel worker will be able to modify the original
I like the looks and I think it creates a bit of aditional aero and also cooling which will not be a bad thing for an Ultima

I think this is the remains of the team that used to run the "piolot pens" sponsored ultima. i just searched under "qvick ultima" and it came up. If its the same car it might still have the BMW m3 inline 6 engine in it

I am pretty damn tempted to make myself these side pods. I REALLY like them.

I think you could fit these with the stock tanks. You'd just have to have some type of ducting at the rear of the pod moving air upwards to the location of the stock hole in the side.

Here are some more photos for all, some closer up




I really like the entire rear end too. The boot extension and diffuser. Oh yes. I want my car to look like this one.

Air-duct at the top is cool as well - anyone make these?

Donkeasy was in the process of making a scoop not sure if he's done it yet though......

This car was originally built by QuickMotors (Belgium or Netherlands...not sure). Straight six BMW engine and lots of modifications.
