Hi-- The rear boot spoiler on my two door 34 gtt has a bit of movement in it. I checked the nuts that secure it and there tight. Can anyone tell me if there is supposed to be a rubber pad or some other material that sits between the boot spiler and the boot lid itself. Appreciate any help

Thanks

Carey

Hi,

When i rippedo ff the spoiler off my gtt, there was a thick layer of double sided tape that was stick on the bottom of the spoiler and the boot.

Hope that helps.

i took mine off too, you should find some tacky sponge like layer that holds it down , if not it moves than someones already removed or played with your spoiler. try your local panel shop, they can give you some of that sponge stickt crap and try re sticking it

They move.. its just the way it is .. better than it bending the shit out of the bonnet.

FYI it does break off mines reached very high speeds.

I have been to 180 and havn't seen any movement, rattling, nothing at all at that speed straight line for a good 2 minutes at 180.

Unfortunately i have a speed limiter so i can't reach a higher speed to know if my spoiler will rip off haha, but it shouldnt come off at speeds higher than that anyhow! Plus you'd hope aerodynamically at any higher speed that your spoiler would help you keep some sort of downforce if anything. not fall off....then again they arn't exactly made for downforce but none the less they should do something, but definately not fall off.

I'd say what the guys above already have said and that is to just get some strong adhesive that will keep it in place or if you really love your spoiler, resin is your best friend :bunny:

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch

      It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.

      As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
