Hey, I'm new to the forums, just imported an R33GTR last month, happy with the performance, but i have a pretty bad aesthetic issue..

When the car is doing in excess of 100kmph the front bar flaps around like a sail in the wind, already i can see stress fractures running along the front bar and its starting to shit me to tears..

I asked my mechanic and he said i needed the under-tray to hold the bar in place ( only the sides flap about ).

I was wondering if anyone knows where i can get an under-tray or if anyone could make one and i would pay them ?

All help would be greatly appreciated as i'm stumped for a solution..

Great forum btw, can't get enough of it.

Cheers, Kaan

Hey man,

Welcome to the gtr club.

Is it an after-market front kit?

Just cos i've had my r33 gtr for yrs and never needed an undertray to keep the front bar secured. Check how ur bar's secured to the body.

If you want to have a look at a stock GTR fitment, PM me. The bumper doesn't touch the undertray

It's not really its just secured by the front guards as far as I can tell, 'ill take some photos tomorrow to try and explain better. Thanks tho

A200 I've PM'd you. Thanks guys.

Also not sure if it was either of you but I saw a Black or Purple? R33 GTR turning up into Flynn today at the lights.

that may have been me (black R33 GTR). Were you sitting at the lights in a white R33 GTR?

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.

      So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.

      Finding E-30 & E-85 in Sydney

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?

      Sorry, I wasn't very clear.....just that the standard injectors are apparently good over 600rwhp/450rwkw which you won't get to on standard turbos anyway.....they are much better sized from factory than we are used to in RBs.
