well i've got a big wide GTR style wing on my car, and i'm not a huge fan of batmobile spoilers. And once i lower the car a little more over the 18's a boot lip spoiler will look better from all angles. It's not much for the spoiler, but it's the painting and fitting. I've got other priorities on the car that need attention first!!! but when something cheap comes up it's almost like you are saving money by buying it!! lol

Friski, i will post a group buy in the Victoria section and see what happens. Either way i'm down for one.

A couple more questions:

1. How do you put the Hella 3rd brake light in?

2. From the gel coat, is it ready to paint or does it need futher prep?

Cheers :)

they are the signal auto japan drift wings :P hehe just thought i'd inform yas, they lok awesome :) if i didn't just put a veilside wing on my car i would have got one :rofl:

adrian :)

1. It's places on the parcel tray wired of one of the brake light wires.

2. From gel coat slight sand down (there is no riples in the spoiler) then ready for prime coat and then colour plus clear.

gel coat needs to be removed and primed before painting (spoke to a panel beater today)... its costing me $200 but i know the guy so its probably pretty cheap :/

Sorry can't do much about the gel coat as it needs to be applied so the fibreglass doesn't stay stuck to the mould.

Damnit, now I'm interested too ....... Does Bodyform also paint & fit for extra $$$ ?

Reason I ask is a rock just took out one of my sideskirts and I'm looking at sourcing some however will need to have them painted also .... do they have a range of R33 side skirts available ? do they have a website ?

If they do not paint & fit, any recommendations for a good place in Syd ?

Sorry for all the questions .....

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.

    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 😛   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
