hmmmm. thanx for thatk, i was some times thinking the stealth wing was the one on a series 1 gtst r33.. hehe.. so thats what they call that wing.. hmmm.. no offence, not my flavor at all, good for drifting a guess tho :P, but no good for quatar mile races :D .. each to there own tho, its good everyone has different flavors, thats what makes this world with so many options :P

Um what doyou mean good for drifting no good for drag racing....unless your running like 1000hp and doin high speed runs of like 350km/hr....then your wing aero dynamics wont affect shit

explain to me why in drift comps > formula D for example, why do they take there wings off to drift when doing the sharper turned courses?, and im talking about silvia's with 400hp and less ..

???? and back on when doing more straight courses?

I'm looking for a very simple mild kit for my Series 2 sedan. Is it possible to get a factory series 2 side skirt for my car? As i'm new to the skyline scene and dont really know my way around could somebody point me in the right direction of an aussie site or importer i could get a sedan kit through? Any help is appreciated... Matt.

This is my favourite rear bar and skirts, what is it?

Very neat and tidy - I dont like big grills and mesh and vent and curves.

Looks similar to stock but a bit different, not sure if the skirt are stock or not, and I like the stealth wing.

Anyone know where to get genuine body kits from? I would like to upgrade, but don't want a cheap kit that doesnt fit properly.

what do you all think of this rear bar.. i like it, loox r34 style. some reason the wine red makes it look cheap and maby the mesh is bad on this one :)

R33 GTS AB REAR BAR..

that rear bar looks so bad i think it gave me cancer

Anyone got a GTR Type front bar on a series two? and if so where did you get it from?, any pics would be great!!

Whats the differences when buying a bar for a series two.... is it just that it hasent got the grill atatched to it?

I want to get rid of my standard front bar for a GTR type because the series two bar i have only exposes half of my intercooler wich is a waste!

we get a quantifyable differrence on cats car by adjusting the rear wing, by increasing angle of attack we can increase rear grip in the wet quite noticeably. These wings have effects at speeds from about 120kmh and up, most tracks in the da series now have entry speeds of 140-170kmh so they are far more than cosmetic.

Rhys millens car is a perfect example of this he has published down force results for his drift wing on his GTO, i just used a mates digital pressure pads and fitted them under the boot rubber stops to get an idea of what worked and what didnt.

/\/\/\ Agreed, saw on Formula D that Rhys was bragging on how much his wing helps the GTO, would love a URAS one for my 33 >_<

Really like this front bar(EDGE i think) for the R33, anyone know of any places in Australia that has it?

in MY opinion, any aftermarket kit for r33 make the skyline look 'cheap'

take the s2 r33 for example, i think it looks fantastic with the standard kit, not overly done looks so clean. rims plus maybe a bit of a lowering would look mint.

I love the series II kit. But the orange lens on the front bar is such an eye sore!

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
