Hi y'all. Im an R33 owner from South Wales in the uk. After reading this thread i've decided to do an undertray on my car. Im going for the full undertray using 1.5-2mm aluminium. I've got a full Jun body kit which sits pretty low but want to try out something different which will help the handling. Im going to be putting in a few vents to aid air flow from the engine and to help with cooling as mentioned earlier in this thread. I'll try and post up some pics as i progress. I'm also going to try and do some testing on low pressure areas using a water manometer to make sure im not creating high pressure under the car which will be bad...VERY BAD lol

Regards, thwish

I used tin snips but the steel was only 22 gauge, it is dead now because of those blocks in car parks hitting the bottom of the front bar and bending the steel, Im looking for some plastic sheet like used in recycle bins to avoid the damage, polypropylene or something like that, think I can get it in 3mm sheets 1800 x 900.

Could use a jig saw and file to clean up the edges..

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
