montythemole Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Saw these on another site, first pic looks a bit hoax, the car is floating, but the second you can see a reflection so assume it's some very strong clear plastic?! border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" alt="IPB Image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" alt="IPB Image" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Photon Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Just think how hard they'd be to keep clean - you'd have to take them off to clean the brakedust, etc off the back everytime you drove the car!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyp Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 have seen the site, app they are photoshopped so ive been told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Even if they aren't photoshopped (and if they are it's a damn good job), making wheels that look like that and can support a stationary car is a lot easier than making wheels that look like that and are safe to drive on.

paulbin Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 plus i used to work for nissan and the brakes on the 350z are brembos so they definatly aint the right brakes, photoshop any1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Only the higher-specced 350Zs get Brembo brakes (at least in the US) - you can see the standard-spec front brakes (just) here: border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" alt="IPB Image" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The subtle modder Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 monty what you doing on the corsa c website? not thinking of changing? and personally i wasnt convinced of them pictures as they would have to be super thick and heat resistant plastic to handle cornering forces and brake heat, if its a photoshop though hats off to the guywayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loopy Lupo Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 certainly different - what about cooling issues though? and yep some corsa muppet is bashing his bishop / flicking her been over those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
