Concept
- The design is based on the HKS racing style, but with a GT look for the street. Since a wide tire can be fitted on the rear in stock conditions, the body kit is not extremely wide, but was designed with the consideration to be used for touring and occasionally for circuit driving.

Styling
- Expresses strength and sharpness. Incorporating Carbon Fiber in key areas creating a sense of performance and a luxurious feel.

Front spoiler
- The design is intended to embody the HKS racing style while still preserving the distinctive Nissan Z appearance. Designed to follow a GT car style with just the appropriate amount of sharpness.
- Bottom view (pressure) - Rectifying the airflow passage, it establishes an effective approach from the front to the under-panel. This substantially alleviates pressure on the underside of the front bumper and generates downforce.

Front Fender
- The fender are crafted to replace the factory fender, eliminating the retrofit appearance. The upper section of the fender features a pressed line, ensuring a continuous line from the door panel to the rear. Vortex generators are strategically positioned on the surface, extending from the fender to the side sills, effectively reducing driving resistance.
- +12.5 mm wide on one side compared to stock

Side Skirt
- The simple side sills were designed to balance the genuine body design. While the concept is simple, the side sills are designed to look different when standing on the side of the vehicle. The barge panel, which is the identity of HKS Aero, is also set on the Z. The size and design of the barge panel were adopted to ensure balance with the rear of the front fender.
- Flow around barge panels - Fast flow is formed inside the barge panel (effect of pressure reduction in the front wheelhouse)
- Pressure in the front tire house - The canard and side barge panels also contribute to reducing overall pressure in the tire housing, resulting in increased downforce.

Rear Fenders
- As the vehicle can accommodate wide rear tires in stock form, the design is not excessively broad, but is tailored for circuit use while maintaining everyday touring functionality. The upper press line and concave shape at the rear were incorporated to provide a visually wide appearance with minimal added thickness. Press lines were introduced to the sleek design of the stock body creating a GT car style. While the tire area was sculpted to be sharp and tight.
- The result is a substantial visual width, reaching a remarkable +8mm per side.

Actual driving confirmation at Fuji Speedway - Comparing performance with and without the BODY KIT
- The difference is noticeable both with and without the BODY KIT. It enhances braking stability, suppresses understeer, and makes the vehicle's response milder. Mild understeer during entry and in corners is also diminished. Improved controllability at the limit range allows for smoother driving. This body kit enables the driver to maintain speed in corners without compromising top speed on straights.
