top secret rear diffuser

Thanks heaps dude :(

I remember that thread. Totally forgot about it.

If only he had pictures of what it actually looked like installed on a 33 with a stock rear bar. As is, I couldn't purchase one from there :). The pics that he has up don't really show the shape of the thing either. Disappointing.

w00t :thumbsup:

Awesome.

Methinks there's an open market for something like this just waiting to be tapped.

But, I wish I had my car with me atm so I could take some more pics and draw it up properly...I'll see if I can do anything with the shots I have. (I never really took many shots of the bum)

w00t :huh:

Hey mate, after searching my database I only have 1 pic of an R33 with rear diffuser I'm afraid :)

Hope it helps post-35130-1186653408_thumb.jpg

Thats a Ziax carbon rear diffuser, I remember him making one as a test but no sure if he went in to production with them, cant see them on his website but may be worth a email you never know, the web address is www.ziax.co.uk

Not really a fan of that style.

My mate had one on his GTST. It was made for a GTR, but actually fitted nicely on the GTST. He has since sold the car, without the diffuser, and is about to fit the same diffuser on his GTR.

I think it looks awesome, and it worked toooo well. He is trying to find a matching diffuser for the front. On the GTST, the car looked like the rear suspension had blown, due to the down force created by the diffuser, when he was hammering down the straights. It's made from pure c/f and i think it cost him about $1000 s/h.

Below are a few pics i took of the diffuser, the last one is a stitch of 4 pics, as i didn't take a pic from far back. Pics were taken as proof of condition, before car was loaded on a truck to be freighted across Australia, when he moved from Melb to Perth.

I'm setting one up using a Trial rear bumper for my race car. It is one piece and extends well under the car.

As for these doing nothing, well, I'm glad now I wasted so many years on engineering and fluid dynamics........

Well, if you've done your homework and put the thing through a wind tunnel etc, then it'll do something. TBH, I would be surprised if the generic ones that I'm looking at actually do anything. I mean, maybe around turn 1 at EC I'd notice a tiny difference. But other than that I doubt the ones I'm looking at would do little if anything at all.

That's a nice look. All fitted.

I think I prefer the "stuck on" aftermarket look of the Top Secret diffuser though.

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
