just wanting some peoples advice with removing the rear wing on a s2 r33. i have removed the two bolts from underneath and am not quite sure whether the stuff holding it down is the dreaded sickaflex or another type of adhesive.

if anyone has some tips on how to counter this problem it would be much appreciated.

thanks

ive undone EVERY SINGLE ONE and my win is glued on or some biz... its seems like a strange wing too.. it doesnt have a brake light and is really quite large stands about 15-20cm in the air... anyone know what type of stock wing it is cause its still has the stock bodykit...

lol....i tried to do it once.........spent two hours trying to figure it out.......ended up almost removinf the complete boot lid........but the wing just won't come off.........sme one do a DIY guide would be nice

removed mine about 2 weeks ago. Man that thing is not going nowhere after being there from the weather in japan.

There are 4 bolts from memory and a couple clips,. Thats the easy part.

Mine ( and probably all ) was glued down with some sort of sikaflex urethhane to stop water leaking in the holes. It was a bitch and a half to remove. Just get a stanley knife blade, and try scrape under the wing. BE VERY CAREFUL not to stratch the paint. Also use a heat gun to heat up around the glue. You have to use a fair bit of force and eventually it will come off..

Goodluck !

    • 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    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
    • Was that Australia Delivered Duncan? Does it have siren etc?   I used to have remote start on an old 32 two decades ago, it was a cool feature. I used to wake up early in winter for work. Start it and by the time i was out the door a few minutes later the engine was warmed up and the heaters had the car toasty. It was great.    I don’t mine the ambience lighting.  I drive a western star and it has footwell lights and ambient lighting and it’s great! From the pics of seen of them installed in a skyline I think it’s a nice touch 
    • re the security system, my Fuga/Q70 has the factory option where the puddle lights in the mirrors turn on when the prox key is detected, it was clearly dealer fitted and has a switch in the lower dash to disable it....it didn't have remote start but TBH I don't really miss that, I had it in the Stagea originally but never used it....we don't often have to warm the car up in the snow before we get in for Australia. And the Fuga also has the illuminated footwells, sounds like a useless feature but I actually quite like the indirect light within the car, it was a nice addition
    • Ok now I’m extremely jealous
