Hi all,

My engine undertray is a little worse for wear, so I thought I might have a go a creating a custom under tray.

I'll probably use like 3mm ply wood. I seen an article once where they did this to a mx5 I think it was.

Has anyone here attempted this on a gtr? I intend to keep the brake ducts somehow.

yeah it was in an auto salon book on the blue ae86 (sprinter they were building) read the story alot of drifters use it apparently so the bar is more secure and firm wen it pops off or something and wont break

I have a fibreglass one sitting beside my desk for my R32. It would be prety easy to make one. I would make one out of balsa and thin coat of fibreglass over it. Alloy, if it comes astray at speed it will make a mess of a lot of things, fibreglass/balsa will just break cleanly away

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
