Anyone done this? Looking to try it out to get a higher position for the blade.

Extended height legs bolted to the original GTR wing end pieces, holes in the extended legs to line up with the orignal blade with multiple angle mounting points. using 3mm aluminium, have a drawing penned to work off, but questions are:

will the material be strong enough to withstand downforce f Long straights?

Any foreseeable issues?

Is it worth doing?

Considering to make a new blade with the aluminium as well but wider (on the narrow side) to have greater surface area. Ie more area= more air can be redirected = more downforce

Any ideas and contribution much appreciated thanks

seen it done a few times in japan. can't remember off the top of my head who makes the 33 GTR kit though. it does look a bit funny to be honest but it's certainly functional.

    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!

    • When you say basic rebuild, you mean an oem rebuild?
