Made using the vacuum injection method on twill Torai Carbon Fiber. Each part is made strong and light (1.5Kg) using UV resistant epoxy resin which reduces fading from exposure to the element. The vacuum injected process makes the part crack and shatter resistant. 

Vacuum-infused carbon fibre, also known as vacuum resin infusion or vacuum-assisted resin transfer moulding (VARTM), is a manufacturing process used to produce high-quality carbon fibre composite parts. Here's how the process works and some of its advantages:

  1. Improved Quality: Vacuum infusion ensures thorough resin impregnation throughout the carbon fibre layup, resulting in a higher quality and more consistent finished product. This process helps minimize voids, resin-rich areas, and other defects commonly associated with traditional hand layup methods.

  2. Better Fiber Alignment: The vacuum pressure helps compress the carbon fibre layers, ensuring better fibre alignment and consolidation. This leads to enhanced mechanical properties, such as higher strength, stiffness, and fatigue resistance.

  3. Reduced Weight: Vacuum infusion allows for precise control over the resin-to-fibre ratio, optimizing material usage and reducing excess resin content. As a result, vacuum-infused carbon fibre parts tend to be lighter in weight compared to parts produced using other manufacturing techniques.

  4. Complex Geometry: Vacuum infusion is well-suited for producing parts with complex shapes and intricate details. The process can accommodate complex moulds and intricate fibre orientations, allowing for the production of highly customized and aerodynamically optimized components.

This unit will allow your R35 GTR to have a smoother underbody airflow to reduce drag and add downforce to improve the car's handling around corners at high speed. This effect is also known as the "Venturi effect". F1 and time attack cars apply the same technology and principals to improve the airflow efficiency around their cars.

The manufacturing process is the same technology employed by Ferrari and Lamborghini to manufacture carbon fibre panels for their cars.
