Did you buy them seperatly or did it come with them?

Came with them fortunately. I had a hard enough time getting a 260RS wing, i wouldn't want to have to look for a set of those. i see what you're getting at with your eyelids, i reckon it'd look good on the angle, similar to how S15's do it

I prefer what mine looks like... ;)

Edit: How do you get the images to display full sized like above?

ahh, got it. Though I still don't know how to get them up to this server, as my understanding is that the gallery has been dead since the transfer....

Terminal, how much did the wing cost you?

as l've been thinking of trying to get one for my car, to loose that "ovlov" look a bit more!! ;)

I bought it through the forum from someone for $300. it's a 260RS copy, so it didn't come with some of the fittings and i had to get them made up. painting and fitment was another $200.

ian, yeah series 2 seem to have a much more aggressive look to them, I just dont like the lights in the grill personally.

97r33gtst-typeM - Only problem then is when Mr Plod does the whole, "Bend over and let me look at your mods..." thing you cant just say, "Well it'll take me 2 seconds to remove them with a philips head screw driver officer, how about I just remove them right now, save you writing out a defect ticket?" :O

Chances are the coppa will give you a ticket anyway, also with painted on it looks flat, whereas with bolt on's you can get them to match the bodywork so the eyelids fit to the contour of the shape of the bonnet.

I'm going to start playing around with cardboard cutouts this weekend probably and see just how fiddly it would be to cut/bend these up. Probably send to Bass Junky for mass production if required, but I dont see a huge interest in them.

Well it looks like most people think they are gay.

Meh I've never been one to cave into popular opinion, cardboard cutouts created, going to have a play around with some different sheetmetal bits and see what the overall effect is.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
