hay buddy

what ill do is when i get home (and it stops fkn raining) ill measure the gap where they would sit in the opening of the front bar. if u could please measure the gap from the front section of the canard top to bottom i could better guage the physical size of the thing.

ill also speak to my mate shane from psi parts and see if we could modify them and remake them again in carbon

thanks dude

Not sure I know where you mean but the front section that wraps around is what i measured.

The outside measurement is 21 centimetres and the inside is 17 centimetres.

Reproducing these in wet carbon fibre would not be hard at all. The trickest part would be making up the molds -

1) waxing component to be copied with several layers of special wax

2) coating with tooling gelcoat

3) applying poly resin and reinforce with fibreglass mash

4) repeat step 3 until a thick enough layer is built up

5) wait until cured and 'pop' it out

Once the mold is made, you can make copies of the part by using carbon fibre fabric, you could even use carbon-kevlar or even kevlar on its own depending on the look youre after.

The trick is not to stirr up the resin too much when mixing in the hardener (Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide - MEKP) - this creates bubbles and you dont want bubbles appearing all over the top of the layer of carbon fibre.

I've made up many carbon parts by using this technique.

Anyways, hope that helps.

    • LOL.... fk...   there goes 25K to make 200kW
    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
