Has anyone DIY made up tabs similar to the Bee*r wings for GTR's? They use the factory mounts and put a larger blade ontop of the position the standard one sits.

I've got a 33 that is used for club days and track events and I want to chuck a giant f**k off wing on it for a drift day we're doing. Car will be trailered so being horribly illegal isn't an issue.

 

If anyone has done this and can provide me some decent photos (or even a CAD drawing) that would be sick. I think Richo did something similar before getting that topstage wing? Not sure.

Do you need a big spoiler, more rear downforce, for a drift day.

I believe richo made larger end plates but i didnt read of anything else...

No it's 100% for wank. You know, fun? :-) 

 

The 33 has all the fruit. 25/30, big brakes good pads, braided everything. It's pretty well sorted. I wanted to lighten it up a bit with some fun.

I'm not here for the wing....just waiting for you to start a build thread:1310_thumbsup_tone1:

Ahh fair enough. This part of it from another forum. I figured that SAU has had the same shit done to death over and over again no point posting it. But here you go!

P.S Ignore the messy factory. I had a factory in oakleigh just storing some bits (3 drift cars, a bunch of engine bits and it all ended up disassembled on the floor lol)

Or part of the thread:

Now the current stage! So my engine hydrolocked and bent a rod

:(

Enter: RB30DET Neo.

Running the same turbo setup, upgraded to 1000cc denso injectors on an aftermarket rail, earls fittings (Cheers earl!), GTR FPR due to logistics of the rail etc.

Still sticking with the Nistune.

Thanks mate, looks like a lot of work, good job!

 

The more info the better, it helps everyone with their builds too ;)

 

Haha its true!

 

I might post it up sometime.. Still in the middle of tuning it haha.

 

Now! Anyone done one of the wing things? I know richo did something similar so thats the kind of thing im going for.. but ridiculously big. Drift wang spec.

I'm contemplating a mod for my R33 GTR wing too.  But I don't really like the look of the raised wings.

So, basically I plan to extend the wing on the sides with more wing surface (cut from the OEM since I'm running a Carbon centre wing).  Flat end plates on those winglets.  I do my own carbon fibre overlay and epoxy so just need to ensure the carbon weave is similar to the existing carbon wing.

Then for added down force I want to fabricate a flap extension for the back of the existing wing.  I will probably contour it to give a bit more aggressive look but plenty of surface.  That will be tied to the existing wing and braced with turnbuckle supports tied to the boot.

All design planning phase right now.

Let me know what you come up with!

 

I have a big GT wang to use. Mines more for wank when I do drift events. The GTR wing stays on it. I want to be able to unbolt it and put the standard blade back in for when it's doing anything else!

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
