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!

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again? 
    • I haven’t yet cut the chassis, maybe I switch to a reverse flow. I’ve got the Intercooler mounted as I already had it but not cut yet. Might have to speak to an engineer 
    • Yes that’s another issue, I always have a front mount, plus will be turbo plus intake will big hasstle. I’ve been told if it looks stock they’re fine with it by a couple others who have done it ahahaha.    I know @Kinkstaah said the stock gtt airbox is limiting but I might just have to do that to avoid a defect so it atleast looks legit. Or an enclosed pod so it’s hidden away and feed air from the snorkel and below Intercooler holes like kinstaah mentioned. Hmm what to do
