hey i took my stock wing of my r32 and now each time i open the boot it flys up real quick like its gonna jump off is there some spring i can loosen to make it not go up as fast and how hard is it to do that? and when boot is closed because it just wants 2 fly up it sits 3 or so mill higher then it should

To my knowledge, i dont think you can. The boot is spring loaded with spring steal rods going from one side to the other on the boot hinges. There is no extra notches for you to take the tension out. I believe its fixed in one spot and it cant be adjusted.

We had the exact opposite problem - going from a GTS bootlid with no wing to a GTR bootlid with GTR wing. Ours would not even open as the hinges/spring were not strong enough to cope with the extra weight of the wing.

You can have our hinges and springs couried to you for $50 (it is too long to use Aust Post). Please contact by PM.

      Yea my thought was tighter engine when hot is more load a poor ground connection can't take. On that note, I had time to check my driveshaft verical alignment tonight, it's +2 and -2 at either end, so thats perfect and how I had set it up last year. What would be the easiest way to check horizontal alignment between my diff and transmission? I can think of a few ways but they're all complicated and I feel like I'm overthinking it. I'm hoping it's that as I can't see any other reason why I have developed driveline vibration since I put the motor back in.

      Fender flare widths across front/back of car

      Thank god. I thought I was the only one, nobody seems to mention this (cause nobody really goes this far in Sedan land). The car's track is 10mm wider at the rear, which explains why the rears sit a little further out for the same size wheels. There's not really many options in widebody land for sedans anyway - People will just use whatever came out of the box and then buy wheels/spacers to suit. To get it perfect you'll likely need custom wheels with custom offsets if you really want to get it perfect which is what I plan to do, but I also plan to utilize more of the inboard space for tyres at the rear... which is also something nobody ever seems to do.... OR my maths have failed me after 20,000 attempts and I'm about to make huge mistakes.

      What colour is that?  A mate of mine went red/black on his SLR5000 tribute recently also.  And yes, also glad to see this still progressing albeit slowly.

      I installed my link ecu shortly after. But car ran fine with stock ecu and r35 coils, just had the traction control and slip lights on.
