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.

Mate got this one from guys in china,very good quality,comes with stays and mounting brackets to boot, but dont need to use those as wing sits straight in original wing mount.have tested it gives great downforce.I do have heaps of areo front splitter and diffuser rear diffuser and now the wing.These wings are only 360 us and 150 us sent to you door.look great as well. pics attached Company is on ebay called [stonecarbon2009]post-7486-0-29488600-1307680637_thumb.jpgpost-7486-0-76179300-1307680656_thumb.jpgpost-7486-0-57882400-1307680719_thumb.jpg.have bought a few things through these guys great comunication and very well made carbon.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
