Just wanted to know if the GReddy air diversion plate made for the GTR also fitted the GTS-t. In particular I'm talking about the BCNR33, obviosuly there are differences in the body, however I am not totally sure they extend to the radiator support panel. Can anyone help?

I think you will find they are model specific.

The BCNR33 panel (If anything like the ARC version) will bolt to the front of the radiator support panel then join to the top of the front grill on each side.

Well through my business I will try and do a dyno test with one on and off. I'm very keen to dispell and prove quite a few performance tuning myths

that will be greatful if could do that for us all..

very keen to find out the difference..

dyno run? i dont think they claim any power benefit. all they do is (possibly) direct more air through the radiator and aid in cooling slightly. plus neaten up the look of the engine bay a bit. that's it. dyno test will be a waste of your time.

Yes your right with performance gains, but I was thinking more of monitoring engine temperatures in a reproduceable environment (dyno fan and cruising speed), which is quite hard to do with a whizz down the street and looking at your temp gauge.

should have got one in a groub buy that bassy organised, mine should be arriving about now, and i kknew it didnt do power gains but it will help alot with the cooling which is just as important, and it covers up a big gap in the front which the panel makes it look alot neater

ben...

I was mainly sourcing info for a customer.

Had a look at your thread and wondering if you have a template to suit the R33 trust front bar?

There is the possibility that I can make these designs (or coat them) in carbon fibre for those interested?

Fact is air is lazy, it will always travel the path of least resistance. Any gaps above the radiator, and you will lose air through it. The diversion plates seal off all the gaps so the air coming in has nowhere to go but through the radiator, thus helping with cooling. No rice about it, they were designed to do a specific job and they do it well.

Fact is people will buy anything they think they can talk up to their mates or even worse actually think works to any measurable amount themselves.

Next u will be telling me neons streamline the air under your car?

Or that tubro zet meant for a N/A car you put in your intake pipe has take a whole second off you 1/4 mile??

Buy it if u think it looks nice, but you will notice no difference in water temps etc.

BTW there is no gap above the radiator, it is sealed by the rubber than runs along the top of its support, Nissan aint stupid

When you guys get them and test them i would love to be proven wrong, these are after all only my idle thoughts.

Peace

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
