When i was getting car first registered, the inspector said i had to remove the gt brackets. My god that was a pain..

I have no idea how they put it on in Japan. Cause you have the skeleton frame of the bootlid, all nuts weren't visible so was a pain to fit/remove.

This is the wing im planning to put on (although ive been saying that for over 8months, it sits under my bed lol.

Yeah that's what I've got to do and I wanted to see how it was done on other cars before I gave it a shot.

Also my wing has 2 positions for mounting. Towards the middle and towards the outside. I'm probably gunna use the outer ones for strength. Does anyone have pics ofhow theirs looks too. Rekin?

You might want to check out ASM from a few issues ago, they had an article on installing the wing on their drift car and putting it on the floor rather than the boot lid to get the full effect of the down force. Probably not necessary in a street application but worth a read.

this was one of the best I've seen. It's a garage saurus customers car and I took this pic at fuji speedway. they had built a little support that goes in the boot and takes the force of the wing and distributes it onto the chassis. I'll try and find some pics of the inside.

    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
