Hey all,

I'm done a fair bit of mods to my R33 GTS-T lately, and it's now time to do it up a bit from the outside... I got a full GTR bodykit with 18 inch deep dish rims, HID's blah blah... but it still looks like something is missing... I spoke to a few people amd heard of GT-R33 Front under diffusers - they look awesome and apparently add to some performance (aero dynamics).

The question is where to get them??

There's a crowd calling themselves Abflug Performance - their diffusers look mad as ... I'm willing to pay, just don't know how to purchase - do Aussie manufacturers have copies etc? Please help someone....

Yes, they have front and rear diffusers. As far as I know Top Secret and Varis have diffusers for Skylines too.

Just get an importer such as Slidewize Imports on these forums to bring some in for you.

Thanks for that... but are they're much varieties involved, how much are import costs and how do I know exactly how much they cost? Does Slidewise Imports specialise in these stuff?

You will have to pay for freight by sea, as these are too big for EMS. Then you will have to pay Slidewize their service fee on top of that. I have imported a bonnet through them before and I cant say im unhappy with the service.

I guess the logical thing to do would be to PM him (Zac) :(

I've just bought mine from UAS(www.uniqueautos.com.au) they have the series 3 r33 gtr front lip for $295 in fibreglass and its pretty good. It all fit fine on my car I have the same as you. GTST with full widebody conversion etc. All you have to do is prep and paint it and its ready to go. The service was amazing but it got here and better than paying $1200 for one from nissan.

That's a front lip, not a diffuser. Big difference. Also the first time you hit your fiberglass lip it will crack/shatter. Original Plasic ones can take a beating without taking too much damage.

Yeah, the bottom plastic lip is quite thick nd withstands bumps very nicely... the question is, where to get one??

Bro, your front bar already have something like a lip, adding on this lip will look weird. It'll look like the front has 2 lips.

So are you after a front lip or a front diffuser?

If you're after a front lip then there are different ones. Originaly Series 1/2 Front lips are plastic and are what most R33 GTR's have, Series 3 lips are a bit bigger/more aggressive and are plastic, obviously come on the Series 3 R33 GTR's. About 900$ for the s1 and $1200 for S3 lip from nissan. They are plastic and will take a beating.

You can get fibreglass copies from lots of places, one of them is uas as listed above. Fibreglass is a lot cheaper but will crack/chip easier than original plastic, keep that in mind.

Hey mate, thanks for your reply and info... it's much appreciated...

Yeah, I like the stock R33 GTR lip a lot (the rubbery plastic one) - besides wreckers... only Nissan can order them genuinely from Japan and yes, you are right... about $600 sounds right... too much... diffusers look like lips and they look so aggressive...

I'll just have to see how things go... thanks mate...

Personally i would love a small subtle one for looks, but aint paying anywhere near $2000 for one.

Hey guys, yeah, gotta be honest and say it's more for looks ... it does look very nice though and does add some performance gains, but $2K for one is a bit too much... if it was, say, $500 or something I would definitely buy it.

Surely there must be some aftermarket ones out there that are cheaper?

      R34 GTR Seats / No longer reclining

      By bilbo117 · Posted

      Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers

      Those above shitboxes, mediocre and above usually have a turbo strapped to them, hence the slightly higher octane is required.

      Blue slip

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
