I would have gone for a dual plane element version had one popped up, but as I wasn't about to spend $2500 plus on a wing I took what was available in the right sort of sizing for the car, in excellent condition. Most wings were too small. I was also quite set on either the C-West or Voltex as I wanted something proven, and the Voltex popped up first.

I actually used to have a dual plane C-West but in aluminium. I was defected my first week of having it on so I got rid of it! It was also a bit heavy, noisy and not wide enough.

With the correct front bar with dive planes, mated to a nice undetray, chopped rear bar with diffuser I think it would make meaningful gains in cornering force - but what do I know! :whistling:

Something like this:

my car is alot more well behaved now with the wing on, most noticably under heavy braking.

i got this gt style one a while ago now, but after reading info off this thread.

as stated by others, a wing is a bandaid for other setup issues sometimes, best to develope suspension before adding wing.

if only i listened to that advise lol.

What width and height Adz? I am expecting that the R34 GTR wing I am running to be inferior to a wing like yours...so doing a bit of homework in case i need to buy something.

In regard to height, with my very limited knowledge of airflow over the roof of a car a rear wing should be level (or close to) with the roof line in order to use this airflow. Adz's above looks perfect.

    • 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

    • 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
