does any1 have pics with no wing at all on a r33? would it look ok with a black boot and the rest of my cars the maroon colour but a bit darker resprayed. im thinking il just get the holes welded and paint the boot black but dont want it to be shit. id do it the same colour but dont wanna pay to get the colour matched and the rest blended coz im getting a full respray later on and it shud only cost me about 50 bux to get it done black. shud i do gloss or matt black?

My car is currently wingless too... looks plush and elegant but less sporty...

what you do is get it welded like I did, then go to Supercheap Auto - buy a matching (best suited) spraycan then spray it... then get it waxed... should look ok... have it wingless, don't get a ugly-arse stealth wing... makes it look more pussy...

Good luck mate...

I take some pics soon and will share it with you.

Personly i think any skyline with the wing removed looks shit , and espicially those people that take them off and just put tape over the holes !!

and on the 33's taking the wing off looks like crap IMO because u are left with the rear guards having a bit poking up where the boot is and looks like somthing is missing.

but dont get me wrong if done right it can look half decent but out of 100 i have seen with out the wing 99.99999999999999999 look shit , to me :D

It does look a bit weird without a wing from the back, but from the side and front it looks good... my wing is off at the moment but i'm trying to think wether to get a drift wing or leave it as it without one and get the holes welded up... looks heaps different compared to the GTR wing i had..

obviously people are all gonna react differently to this wing or no wing issue. I'm just saying imo without wing it looks like its missing something. Maybe the new owner liked the look, or maybe he didn't care because he can always put a wing on and the fact the car is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO well kept probably helped the sale.

Yeah i think this is something you can't say wether its bad or good it really depends on the car itself, there's this nice black 33 that goes round my area with no wing at all but the boot is flush with the sides and it looks sooooo nice, but personally i dont think you can go wrong with a GTR wing :)

I took my GTR wing off cos it looks out of place on a gtst with no body kit... but they look unreal on a actual GTR... the wing is just too big for a gtst

    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
    • You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple
    • Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit. 
    • Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
