hi all,

i am planning to repace my series 2 gtt wing with a gtr wing on the weekend. Could anyone let me know if there is anything i should be careful about. if someone could give me instructions on how to go about it or point me to a DIY thread that will be great.. thanks in advance!

from what i know both use the same holes. so you should be able to unbolt the old one and put the gtr one on. just dont drop it. and careful when taking the nuts off coz they might fall between the gap in your boot

no issues replacing on my old R34, the stock wing has a kind of rubber seal to stop water leaking in the boot, maybe that's what they meant?

I just had to take the lining off the inside of the boot, unscrew the 4 bolts holding it in and swapped in the gtr one, you might want to use silicon grease or tape on the inside of the replacement wing stands so water doesn't leak in

i took mine off the other day and replaceed it with a carbon fibre drift wing its like the blitz drag supra one but carbon. and when i took it off there was these white plug thing in the stands as well and they were a mother f**ka to get out.

yeah when i removed my wing there were little round white plugs in between the 2 bolts on each end. absolute bitch to get out.

got a long socket and bashed it over the end of them from underneath. them wiggled/pulled it up.

was also alot of rubbery gluey stuff. heatgun made short work of that though.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points?

      I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.

      Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?

      So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
