Hey all,

I finally ordered some canards from the US (with the help of a nice SAU forumer).

I should be in a position to get them install soon and can't wait to get them one.

I was wondering if anyone has pictures of with installed on a R33.

I could only find the following (at least it has a R33 front bar).

What you guys think??

HAHA I agree!!

At least it will match your fake evo vortex generator!!

What's your farken problem? I just like the look of them and hence got them installed - not trying be an evo or anything.

What makes you say they're fake Evo generators? If I got the exact ones then that's trying to be like an evo - nupe, don't want them to be the same - just got a generic looking one. You'll see a few WRX's, CIVIC's and other Lancers with them - I think they look hot so went for them - that simple.

It's my car, I do what I want so fark you.

A lot of people think they look mad (including myself) - just because you don't like them doesn't mean others don't.

Nothing wrong with dressing your car up abit mate... I've done some performance mods, sound etc, so yeah, a bit of rice to dress it up a bit is no problem to me... I've always liked them... so yeah, getting it for looks... so what? :wacko:

the Civic's front bar is an R32 GTR one isn't it...?

anyway the canards look a bit short on that particular Civic but if you look closely the the flared front fenders is why they are short...

if your car has stock fenders and the canards are obviously longer than it should look alright... it's all about the length dude

just post up some pictures once you got them up and running, and don't expect everyone to have positive comments man it's just the way sh*t is

Hey mate, thanks for your comments - yeah should look ok...

Positve/negative commments ... doesn't phrase me... I've heard fair more positive comments on my car than negative - but then everyone has their own views so it's no problem to me. Then the same can go for other cars - we mod our cars the way we personally feel it's nice to us, so I enjoy hearing peope's comments (both positive and negative) - no issue.

Thanks champ... I'll post up some pics when the go on so we'll just have to see how they go...

Regards,

I really don't know why everyone puts up that stupid picture, face it all skylines are ricers, lancers, wrxs and all imports will always get labelled ricer. So what? Is it such a bad thing? So he wants to dress the car up? How is that different from any other car enthusiast? pfft if thats ricer, rice me up. I love it. Pics when your done please :D

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
