This is next year update 100%
Great work as always!
Thank you!
The full catalog is enough reason to buy a Supra
So nice idea but what does it look like with the hood up and from farther away i.e. showing the whole car?
Great innovation and creative solution. 👌 Rocks flying into the engine bay ah No No. Lol. Siemens Nx for CAD - better modeling tools? Useabilty? The animation of the two pieces coming together... super cool 😎 A really nice functional part. Keep up the awesome work. Really inspirational. 🙌
Looks awesome. Final product will be totally open? I wonder what the behavior of flying rocks out of it will be vs fins to redirect them?
Thank you! This currently model will be entirely open as performs better. That said, due to the two piece design, it should be pretty simple to create a mesh blocker that seats in between to block debris for street use. At the end of the day we really intended this for track use.
Please not "One more thing for this car"! Keep it going! Keep innovating guys!!
Heard! We appreciate the support.
That’s literally a hole. It would be great if you did something that pulls air out of the fake vent already on the hood, and make it functional. I’m sure there is a way to develop a duct with a “channel or cut out” that separates rocks from the hot air to drop them under the car rather than the A pillar.
A hole is what you want and is why you see similar designs on most race cars. Go look at what a gurney flaps (the upflick on the leading edge of the duct) does and you'll see that this design will pull plenty of air from within the wheel well.
yo i need this
Cool🎉
Thanks!
Will it have some type of mesh on the final product? Parked, looks like it's asking for people to throw trash in it lol
We're looking into it. That said, we only recommend these for track use. Definitely not practical for daily driving.
I mean, that is quite a racecar upgrade. Any reason why you didn't make it louvered to match the hood vent?
It performed better with it completely open. You're right about this being a racecar upgrade, as we intend for this to be for track car use specifically.
@@VerusEngineering well, if you ever plan on making another one, hopefully it will be for the GR86, and louvered like the hood vent!!
Glad you like it! Fender vents for the 86 is definitely a possibility.
agreed…!!! Maybe for first zens aswell? 😮
how much does it actually improve front end downforce?
Yes, we'd like to know too
Looking at a car with our dive planes, high df splitter/end plates, side splitters, diffuser/spats, hood vent and v1x at 2°, adding the fender vents increases front end downforce by 4%. The fender vents can be used to shift aero balance forward, or substantially increase total downforce by maintaining the same balance and increasing rear wing angle of attack.
Damn Cool! every time i saw the fake vents with black plastic on the hood, i really feel disgusted. But this one, it is DAMN REAL! 🎉
How do you work in such a dark shop? (Edit: this is a joke. I’m aware it’s for visual effect)
just for the video so we can isolate what's going on.
@@VerusEngineering just edited my comment. Not sure if the joke was missed or not. Parts look good!
verus widebody gr supra?????
Are you saying that we should make a wide body kit?
And gr86?
Not a priority at the moment, but we're not gonna say no!
Is there actual evidence to the "high pressure in the wheel well" claim? All the evidence I have seen is that the wheel well has a lower ambient wheel well pressure. Vents on wheel arches seem to be effective is because they lower the pressure further.....
I would generally agree with that. The wheel well often has a ton going on between spinning wheels and tires, radiator outlets etc. There are local areas with very low pressure, and areas with very high pressure. I think it’s safe to say that on average the wheel well pressure is lower than ambient but that there is enough pressure differential from the top side of the hood to the wheel well to drive flow outward. Another consideration is that some of the surface area of the hood that is producing lift has been removed.
Sell me the prototype. Thanksss
Very ugly car.
We appreciate the feedback! Always striving for function and form simultaneously. Have any suggestions for us?
@@VerusEngineering Headlights: on the part where the headlight is narrow (the part that is close to the sign), print a piece and cover that part of the headlight (paint it in the color of the vehicle), so it will remind a little of the older models. Rear: Make a trunk that does not have such a big duck's beak, much lower, of course it follows the line from the sides (similar to the 911), then do some upgrades. Of course, it is demanding due to aerodynamics. When the designers make a new model, they must be tested for alcohol and other things :)
