VRS Carbon Rear Diffuser

BulletproofM · 04-14-2010, 06:23 PM

I've noticed a lack of serious rear diffusers for the E92 M3. Luckily VRS happens to make one of the best on the market in full carbon.

What do you guys think?

It's pretty big...

Does it actually do anything? Or is it just for looks? If it in fact does something is there any data available?

Have you fitted one on a US based car since the last time we spoke? Still think it will fit an e90?

davedave · 04-14-2010, 11:03 PM

i believe you need a smaller pieces first then put on the bigger pieces in the picture.

PM me how much for both.

GewoW · 04-14-2010, 11:16 PM

how much??

moog55 · 04-15-2010, 12:16 AM

agree....the side pieces look like an afterthought....rest of it looks cool!

Bob MG · 04-15-2010, 01:14 AM

Very cool without the under the car piece. IMO it will not allow exhausts to cool down, and the car surely doesn't need those for down force like a Ferrari does?

What's the price of just the diffuser portion? Ad can you post pics separtely?

moog55 · 04-15-2010, 01:27 AM

the diffuser portion looks like a type II derivative.

Looks good, I like the fact that it's a functional piece.

We've actually never had anyone try and install the VRS rear diffuser to the E90. Like most diffusers it can probably be modified to fit. I'm pretty curious myself, so we're going to contact Varis to see if it can be done. I'll definitely keep you posted on their reply!

Back to my earlier question..... What's functional about it?

Varis, like most other aero companies, does not release detailed testing data to the public. They've been involved in competitive racing such as Super Taikyu and Time Attack for many years. All of there products undergo various track and street tests before release into production. An example of some of their recent work is designing and manufacturing many of the aero pieces for the GLAD Racing Z4 in SuperGT.

I'm sure they have extensive R&D for race cars, and I'm sure they work... but are there any claimed benefits for this diffuser? Does it do anything at all for our car or is it just for looks?

Increases downforce and decreases aerodynamic drag co-efficiency would be my guess.

Interesting... usually when you increase downforce, you also increase drag.
