LOL Simon... Can never be too big. :cheers:

That's a rudder lol

Or road kill slicer

After being around the Formula cars for years you get some crazy ground effect ideas

My rx ran rubber from rhe body kit right to a few mm of the ground and damn that would suck down on the road and grip at high speeds

Shame the man would crucify you for it here it looked mad , damn laws haha

No problem Simon...

I'm just waiting for my bracket kit to arrive and then this will be fitted to my car to finalise the fin lengths and make sure there square.

I have a car for trial fitment but will post pics once finished.

Bought some prepreg carbon sheet and made my own add ons a while back as the stock fins were a little ratty on the outer sides. Definately suits the rear diffuser!

Just have to trim the forward edges down for a little more ground clearance, that's about it.

this is quite ugly if you ask me lol

Bare in mind these are plugs, the moulds will be made way oversized. This way they can be made to any height depending if people want race only items or street use.

Can't please everyone..

where can you buy the sheet from? and how do you cut the sheet as good as you have?

Most performance shops should be able to get it in. Got mine from UAS, it's the real structural stuff.

Cut it with cutting wheel on an angle grinder and used a tension saw to cut the smaller angles, then a quick brush with a file.

Don't breathe in the dust!

      Rb25det Belts Change

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Everything I found online said never use it because it'll dramatically reduce belt lifespan.  No, but I have seen excessive v-belt tension cause the audible bearing noise from excessive radial load in things like alternators. So don't overdo it. Ideally you set it to manufacturer spec using a proper belt tension guage. I tried the "clicker" type gauges but those cheap things are trash. They read way too low even when you're careful.

      This is kind of where I've ended up for the most part. It's easier for me, easier for shops that don't have to deal with my weird criteria/picky standards, etc.

      Will do. Suprised if it's not the starter motor considering it's 30 years old. Will get a volt meter though. Battery is close to new.   Cheers for your help, always appreciated.

      This almost never happens these days. No. Clean your battery terminals and make sure they are tight. Use sandpaper on a dowel if you have to, to get oxidation off the inside of the terminals, particularly on the -ve. Check the earth cable from battery post to chassis ground and engine ground. Make sure the contact surfaces are clean - including the threads on the bolts that anchor them - because that's where a lot of the contact occurs. Wire wheel on a drill is a good thing for this. Make sure the crimps on those cables are all sound. Assuming none of that causes an improvement: Check the battery voltage after it has been resting for a while. If it's at the lower end of the range, put it on charge for a while, then see if it will crank better.

      I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol.   Is that a thing if you overtighten a belt it struggles to start?
