Hi all...im thinking of removing the rear spoiler off my r33 gtst s1....i want a different look, as there are too many gtsts going around with gtr or stealth wings...has anybody got any pictures of how its looks...my car is wine red so if anybody has any pics of a wine red r33 without a rear spoiler that would be great...and yes i would weld in the holes and do a respray...cheers

it will look shit, trust me !!!

if you want the no spoiler look, your going to have to buy a new boot, plastic moild that lifts the top of it up so it doesnt look too stupid, have a close look at your spoiler, ur boot sinks down, and the spoiler takes up the gap

Personal taste, lets not forget that HZ GTS's are not Monaros....

If you want to be different get a c/f or fibreglass rear boot which is moulded to be level with the 1/4 panels, they look good. If not then just weld the holes, fill the "slots" where the original wing went and have a smooth lid. Its all personal choice,

Twas pretty easy, just take out some screws and if you change your mind....put the screws back on.

I took the wing off atthe national museum while we were cruising, the cops that roled up couldn't figure out why i was fu**ing with my own car lol.

yeah i took mine off for a while too, maybe 2 days. but after looking at it for a while i came to the conclusion that it didnt really flow. but again its all to do with personal preference.

IMO, i reckon flush mounded lip spoilers look better.

if you run no wing the quarter panels will be exposed.

by memory you can see where the panel wraps up and over, and see the spot welds etc

ie. you won't see a neat flat painted edge...

guess you could bog and spray the bat wing bits but that's alot of effort IMHO

i had the holes welded when i had the paint job done.

also theres a bit that sticks out on the inside of the rear panel that i had flattened so it looks cleaner.

i like it better without the wing.

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
