Greddy Air Diversion Plate

[death-from-above]

Just wanted to know if the GReddy air diversion plate made for the GTR also fitted the GTS-t. In particular I'm talking about the BCNR33, obviosuly there are differences in the body, however I am not totally sure they extend to the radiator support panel. Can anyone help?

I think you will find they are model specific.

The BCNR33 panel (If anything like the ARC version) will bolt to the front of the radiator support panel then join to the top of the front grill on each side.

The problem is that GReddy only make them for GTR's (R32 and R33), therefore wondering if it would still fit.

I have reasearched the same topic and the guys at perfectrun inform me that this is not possible.

The alternative is the Carbing Diversion Plate.

Why bother those things do nothing.....

[siddr20]

yea i wanna know if it actually does anything??

Well through my business I will try and do a dyno test with one on and off. I'm very keen to dispell and prove quite a few performance tuning myths.

This is the reason as stated by my supplier.

Unfortunately it will only fit GTR. The mounting tabs & grill on the GTS-t are different & that is where the fitment problem arises

that will be greatful if could do that for us all..

very keen to find out the difference..

dyno run? i dont think they claim any power benefit. all they do is (possibly) direct more air through the radiator and aid in cooling slightly. plus neaten up the look of the engine bay a bit. that's it. dyno test will be a waste of your time.

Yes your right with performance gains, but I was thinking more of monitoring engine temperatures in a reproduceable environment (dyno fan and cruising speed), which is quite hard to do with a whizz down the street and looking at your temp gauge.

[Bass Junky]

you should talk to me about mine!

[2BNVS]

should have got one in a groub buy that bassy organised, mine should be arriving about now, and i kknew it didnt do power gains but it will help alot with the cooling which is just as important, and it covers up a big gap in the front which the panel makes it look alot neater

I was mainly sourcing info for a customer.

Had a look at your thread and wondering if you have a template to suit the R33 trust front bar?

There is the possibility that I can make these designs (or coat them) in carbon fibre for those interested?

[Gts-t]

Can anyone say rice?

The radiator support bar has a rubber on top that seals to the bonnet for a reason. Therefore all air going in the grill area/wherever is directed thru the radiator and cannot enter the engine bay.

[Bass Junky]

Actually not true.

Sorry.

If you have a really good look, there is plenty of gaps which allows the air up and over the radiator.

[2BNVS]

ill agree with Bassy here hence the reason why i ordered one from him to stop this...here we go the rice comments again, cant do anything to make ur car look nice without it being rice

Fact is air is lazy, it will always travel the path of least resistance. Any gaps above the radiator, and you will lose air through it. The diversion plates seal off all the gaps so the air coming in has nowhere to go but through the radiator, thus helping with cooling. No rice about it, they were designed to do a specific job and they do it well.

Fact is people will buy anything they think they can talk up to their mates or even worse actually think works to any measurable amount themselves.

Next u will be telling me neons streamline the air under your car?

Or that tubro zet meant for a N/A car you put in your intake pipe has take a whole second off you 1/4 mile??

Buy it if u think it looks nice, but you will notice no difference in water temps etc.

BTW there is no gap above the radiator, it is sealed by the rubber than runs along the top of its support, Nissan aint stupid

When you guys get them and test them i would love to be proven wrong, these are after all only my idle thoughts.

Peace
