Hi everybody.. I got an s1 r33 and wanna take the stock rear spoiler off, but i dont want the obvious holes and the imprint of the spoiler to be left behind. Anyone know any good places in Melb that will take it off for me and smooth it out? Also, would I have to respray the boot or is it a small job?

And does anyone know roughly how much it would cost?

cheers guys

my opinion, you should take it off yourself... its easy

and then take off the boot......

then give it to a spray shop.. for them to re-spray it...

that way its cheaper for labour...and you dont have to leave your car there for apprentices to do dounuts in...........

yes it has to be re-sprayed.... because they putty up the holes and they sand it smooth then coat it.

Hey man, yeah im thinkin of takin it off my self.

See my car has 2 spoilers, one mini drift one and the norma series one spoiler. I just wanna keep the drift one on. but yeah, my car is too low to get into my driveway so i dont garage it :D ...So if i was to take it off and take it to a mech my car woud have no boot lol..so guess i can jus take the spoiler off and get a mech to do the rest. u kno any good places that do this?

DT panels, 12 Lightwood Drive (or Street, can't remember) Springvale.

Talk to Vu (evilsub on forums) can't remember the number off my head but it should be on sticky threads on Victoria section, have a look there.

Hey. Yeah they'll have to weld up and patch all holes then fill to re-straighten because the welding pulls the panel steel around. Then respray. We usually charge about 350 for it. Doesn't cost any diff whether you take whole car in or remove yourself.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
