INGS FAIRLADY Z33
Magazines available here!
I have always been a fan of Ings aero. When I first got my S14 back in 2014, I remember searching the aero options for the car and coming across Ings. Something about them stuck with me. Their approach wasn’t the same as everybody else. Especially for the S14 chassis. Another one of their kits that I am absolutely in love with is their Type-E Long Nose kit for the Fairlady Z33 featured on Autech Tsukada’s red Z33. While this car does not feature that kit, its a stunner.

Ings Z33 N Spec X Hidenori Kouchi
No worries about water temperature even when driving hard at Suzuka. The aero that has been trained in races will show its true potential.
Aero is required to have various functions as well as looks. When cooling efficiency, downforce, and other factors are balanced at a high level, it is possible to improve the time. Ings aero has a high track record in Super Taikyu, and the know-how is also fed back to the street. In addition to the photo shoot for this cover, this Z33 was used as a passenger car for the REV driving event, and drove around Suzuka all day in mid-summer. Despite the normal cooling system, there were no problems with water temperature. Furthermore, although it was a radial tire, it was possible to achieve cornering speeds comparable to S tires. Even though Kouchi-san was a driver who showed aggressive driving, it was an impression that the power of the aero trained in actual races was shown.
TRANSLATION:
The Z33 is not particularly light, but it maintains a high sense of contact with the ground even in high speed S-curves and changes direction effortlessly. This is due in large part to the increased downforce and reduced weight. In addition, the large amount of air and heat taken in from the front is efficiently expelled from the hood.

The rear spoiler angle can be freely adjusted to obtain the desired steering characteristics.
TRANSLATION:
“It’s like I’m wearing S tires!” Anyone can feel the increased grip of the rear spoiler.

If you drive an Integra at Suzuka, you’ll be number one in Japan. Even with an FR Z you can run through the corners with sharp speed! - Kouchi-san
The driver is Kouchi-san, who drives in the Integra Intercup, the highest level of one-make races. He is a great driver who won the national championship held during last year’s Suzuka F1. He’s driving in the top group with Ings colors, so please support him.
