cheers mate, thanks heaps.....more if you could, its not suppose to be completely flush with the guard when looking from side is it????

Also is that a carbon fibre wing?or have you just put vinyl on top?if so id like to know how

looks very nice

which is lighter carbon fibre or fibreglass??

i think if your just buying the small wing... it should be level with the rear,though some people have varied designs.

the pics are of a mould we made from a boot with that lip on it then blended in... sits pretty flush with side guards..

its a full carbon fibre bootlid. weighs 4.5kgs i think my GTR bootlid is 26-28kgs so thats a big weight difference if you ask me.

here's a few more pics..

yeah.. made it myself.. along with the rest of the carbon stuff on my car..

i like the boot with that lip moulded in makes my 33 look tough..

Very tough indeed! I'm looking to buy a flat boot or drift wing..

Do you know if the flat carbon boots from carmate are any good?

As for the high level brake light.. just pull the one out of your stock wing and let it sit in your parcel tray! :)

carmate stuff is just fibreglass stuff with 1 layer if carbon... good for people on a budget that still want the carbon look... i've done repairs to so much crappy carbon products bought elsewhere though.. so if your buying products like that just take good care of them... keep them out of the sun as prolonged exposure to sunlight makes the resins they use go all funny colours...

hey r33madd, im selling mine on trademe,which i bought and havent used. Pm me for more details.Im selling to get a carbon version of both bootlid and wing lip.

Are you able to post up the link to the trademe auction or p.m the link, do you have any pics of it and how much do you want for itl??im very interested.cheers

will that bootlid + drift lip fit on a series 1 r33 skyline gtst coupe?or are the gtr boots slightly different

anyhow, how much we looking at for both?

the boot is $1650 in carbon or $880 in fibreglass....

both ?? it is just 1 its a replacement boot with that lip built onto it. was moulded like that...

and i'm sure all 33's are the same boot. GTR or GTST

oh and the boot hasn't seen the rain yet? but yeah it would pool up, just take it for a spin all the water will be gone in no time...

    • What could be causing my clutch problem besides a bad master or slave then? Both those parts are new 
    • Just came across this, but in QLD I start leave again in 2 weeks, if it is still available I might drive up and check it out Unless, @MBS206 do you live near here????, if so I could hit you up with a finders fee https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hope-island/auto-body-parts/nc-mx5-factory-hard-top/1328976391
    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
