What Is The Best Wing For A R33?

[Spunky Munky]

Hi guys,

Something happened tonight, I came from a friend's party to find that some bastard got a hammer or something and decided to smash my GT-R style spoiler on my Skyline right in the middle. It is shattered to bits and everything looks like a bomb hit it. Luckily my Skyline is still in one piece.

Anyways, I am now faced with the decision of choosing a new wing for my ride. Good chance to swap to, I suppose.

I've done some research, I guess I am now twisting and turning between 3 types of wings/styles...

1. Go wingless

2. Go GT-R style wing (with led)

3. Go D-Wing (drift stealth wing)

4. Go GT-style wing - the one with the metal stands

What do you guys think? If you have some pics of your ride and your chosen preference of a spoiler, this would be great.

Thanks fellas.

Go Genuine GT-R wing... with nismo end caps!

Mate, there two reasons why I want to move away from the GT-R wing.

1. my ride is a GTS-T - not GT-R - why would I have a GT-R wing.

2. It's too expensive, the replicate is already around $500 without paint and fitting.

3. Everyones got them.

I had a replicate GT-R wing on my car... what do you think?

....so there are 3 reasons

depends what color ur car is IMO,

GTR wing suits all

D wing suits silver s2 lines

dun like wingless, looks odds on r33;s

Cheers mate.

My ride is black - I got a full GT-R kit, but the GT-R wings are just too bloody common (excuse the pun); what do you think?

Does anyone know what wing is on this Skyline in this clip.. ??

It looks like a stealth wing plus some other wing

wingless on a r33 is cheapest and therefore shittest looking. the rear quarters aren't level with the boot. if you want true wingless you're gonna have to shell out for a flush fitting boot. which actually does look good.

drift/stealth wing is ok but im not a fan

the gtr wing on the other hand looks the best and is my pick. doesnt matter if your car is a gtst, just replace the bits on the side with plain ones or nismo as mentioned above.

gt wing can work but its difficult on r33s cos of their roundness. also is a lot less legal than the rest

few other options. (dont do this to your car)

EDIT: that wing is the jun one as per :

+100 wow, most informative post I've ever seen. Thanks so much basti, much much appreciated.

I think I might go for the GT-R wing again (had it already) but guess this suits the R33 best.

Yeah, I might put Nismo on the sides then.

Do you know of a place that sells GT-R wings at a good price - I will need it to be painted too.

Damn, the Jun wing is so hot - I like it - but do not know where to get it?

Cheers,

[Basti]

haha thats what happens when im trying to avoid stuidying. hence the ridiculous ones at the bottom. sory dude i dont know where would be the best to source them from.

[jake33]

haha that pic of the red 33s wing is soooo ghey!

roughly how much are the stealth/drift wings to buy?????

[pkblade]

jake33 - check the business traders section, a couple of them stock it

I picked up one of these the other day really cheap from an import wreckers . Bought it mainly for Autosalon & show'n'shines, it's not a wing I'd really want on my daily.

Mate i went a original GTR boot lid and spoiler when i did mine i bought it from a bloke that had rolled his GTR ay wakefield i had the boot lock cut out and welded before the shinny stuff was applied and people comment on the ass end all the time so IMO Go THE GTR it didn't let me down GL.

My personal preference is no wing with flush fitting boot.

Man that works for me.

Yeah, the red wing is kinda gay indeed. a bit of overkill for sure.

matey, the drift wing is around $200 unwanted, painting will cost around $150 - so you're looking at around $350 painted then you'll have to look at installation costs - $50.00 would do it.

Good luck. Let me know if you've found cheaper!

That's hot bro! Thanks for the info and pics. Yeah, I had a GT-R replica wing on too.

The only reason I don't want to go back to a GT-R wing is that everyone - nearly everyone John and Peter has one. LOL

Got any pics brother?

[Spunky Munky]

Well fellas, if the polls have anything informative to tell; it would suggest that the GT-R replica wings seem to be everyone's preference followed by the humble, but luxury-like drift wing.

It really makes me wonder, everyone wants to be different, but yet everyone seems to not mind being way too similiar. I guess because the GT-R wing is nice and really brings out the R33's true looks. Ummm...

Has anyone tried this.... a drift wing with a R34 Nismo GT-R style wing on... I think I may challenge the status quo and do this. I will post up pics for everyone soon - it looks pretty aggressive.

Regards,

[jake33]

found the drift wing. 150 from www.psiparts.com.au. no bad. something i will look at in the future

[WPN-O33]

Depending on what sort of kit the car has i prefer either the GTR wing or the Stealt/Drift wing...

[Spunky Munky]

Well guys, I think the GT-R wing has left the rest for dead.

Thanks for all your help fellas.

[Spunky Munky]

Although the GT-R replica wings have left the rest for dead - I must ask... what do people see in the little duck wing (Drift wing) that is so appealing, it looks weak as fark... LOL
