It's not a Nismo wing. It's an Altia wing and it's ugly as sin.

The unfortunate part is that when you remove it you will be left with I think 3 or 4 big holes in your rear guards. Very bad.

I have seen it with the sides removed but the boot part left and it looks ok. There are another 4 holes in the boot holding it on.

post-29391-1158093355.jpg what i want to happen

what do u think?

i reckon it still might need just the boot spoiler?????

i definately agree that it needs the spoiler but not that huge one! maybe the standard gtt spoiler or better yet a gtr replica!

You'll end up with bullet holes on each side when you remove it, and probably some bent panels, so basically the two rear guards and boot will have to be resprayed. Possibly your rear lights too to match the freshly sprayed boo.

It cost me $900 all up (fill the holes, straighten the panels, blend the guards, respray the boot and tail lights). The removal is easy, i did that at home, there's about 7 screws per side, and 4-6 screws for the spoiler on the boot.

Were you happy that u got rid of it.

i feel a little worried, i think it actually suits my car. when buying a 34 i refused to get one a that spoiler but once i seen my car low and with 19s it changed my opinion.

Hey Steve, yep i'm pretty happy with the result. The car looks alot cleaner without that big arse spoiler. Although, it does seem a little more bare without any spoiler whatsoever. What would be nice eventually, is to put a stock R34 GTR spoiler on (not the stock GTT), the GTR spoiler has a bit of meat and height on it without going overboard.

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
