Oh my!!!

Props to you and CTM for getting products for the Camry :thumbup:

 

Badass. :thumbup:

 

very nice looking hood. Congrats to Sean and everyone at CT Motorsports.
But, not to disrespect, the hood is not my cup of tea...

 

did i forget to mention something?

they dont call me a graphic designer for nothing

 

you know now that i see it on the car, i would want to see a cleaner kind of style- honestly i agree with justin. that style might be better left to supras.

the kind of scoop im talkin about is an iverted one that would be inset only about .75-1". this way it wouldnt take away any noticeable engine bay space for those of us who want to turbo/etc. kind of like an invader style, only the hood has been lowered a little in the front to vent hot air from the radiator.

heres a link to a pic of a gen 1 mr2 with the style im talkin about... only i would want the vent not nearly as deep.. http://www.speed-source.net/images/88SCV6/DSC01742.JPG

jwa: cool stuff... but i think the location of the vents will depend on where the braces on the hoods are... a deep end vent that u want will hit the cross member under our hoods thus making the hood weak... gotta look at all the right places... if anyone else has a suggestiion let me know my car goes into the shop in 2 weeks for the molding of the hood and when it starts no changes...

I agree. Camrys aren't exactly the all out performance machines that supras and the likes are.

Good work none the less.

 

Theres an RX7 style CF hood i like....gotta find it now i guess....the turbo style is awsome but its just so many people have them and I know we want to be different!


Heres some I like because just that picture dosnt really make the TRD scoop look right on the car!

I think those vents look sweet. Hopefully i can get Jon to photo shop some more pictures for me, but we need to agree on something as soon as possible. I am trying to show you all that we here at CT Motorsport are not full of crap and will finish a project. Also, many people have wanted a hood with vents for years, so lets get one, it will be just a few weeks, using Humpty's car. So, keep the ideas coming.

RayRay,
I think that vent would look better if it wasnt so tall, and didnt have that thing in the middle.

 

Hey yeah Im still working on my CTM projects but dont worry everything will fall together here soon!!!!

BTW-Sean I need that product for the thing with the thing...if you know what I mean...wink wink!!!!!! Send it asap I have ideas and can make the tool so get on it!

 

Jon do me a big fav and photoshop this hood on the camry because I think this is the besat one I have seen!!!

just out of curiosity, but what prevents rain from getting into the engine bay? especially when your standing still!

 

ray ray, what kit is that i want i want!

The vents would be interchangeable with a carbon fiber peice that would fill that whole.

RayRay do you have anymore information on that car ??? maybe a website... I like the lower front lip on that thing...

 

the car belongs to a TN member named Kamikaze from Finland.

from this thread: http://www.toyotanation.com/showthr....com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=12931&perpage=20&highlight=finnish&pagenumber=1

from what i remember, his front lip is actually a rear bumper from another car.

here it is folks

Nice work...now tell your boss to make some Gen2 hoods....

:headbang: DOH!

 

If people want them....

 

JWA you scumbag, i thought that pic was real. good job on the photoshop. i still think i would like an invader hood better or like the one thats on the mr2.

 

when sean and i met up yesterday, we talked about different hood scoop/vent possibilities. looking at the hood braces underneath the hood, it looks like it would be possible to do a vent right above the radiator. one thing i want to stay away from with this hood is raising the profile of it. what i mean by this is i dont want to add a scoop-- it will mess with the car's natural body lines. rather we looked into making a frontal vent, meaning air would blow through the vent and cool off the radiator/engine bay. still going with the inset vent idea, only this one will match the grille much more, all while not making the hood look out of place. furthermore- rain would not be an issue and it would actually serve a purpose with the right placement.

i will try to have a photoshop of this idea up within the next few days... stay tuned

jon

 

awesome man... totally awesome..

this is when i wish i were rich.

 

If people want them....

We want them....the question is....how much?

If I get a group buy of 5 paid, how much per hood?
If I get 10, does the cost savings improve?

Depends on style.
