Hi Guys,

anyone want a carbon fibre boot lid for their R35 GTR. Happy to sell at cost.

I bought this from hong kong from Carbon Stone. Just has just arrived and it is all timber boxed up ready to ship back out to someone who would like it.

It is surplus to my needs, as i mounted my new wing directly to the OEM lid.

pic here is from carbon stones web site.

my lid was ordered with mounting holes for hinge only and no holes for the wing so you can add any wing you like.

Bill

My costs were $1494. But i would take offers over $1000. For those thinking of changing there wing i thought it would be easier to change the wing than swap boot lids. I was wrong. The OEM wing had to come off in 3 parts as it is held onto the OEM boot with the screws that we can see but also clips and adhesive. This makes it a difficult and time consuming task to change wings. Also removes OEM colour coded stickers, which i'm still trying to find from Nissan. So to refit the OEM wing will be a PITA. It cost me $800 at the shop to remove OEM and install the aeromotions wing. So swapping boots with wing installed starts looking like an attractive proposition. If only i knew.

If anyone is keen i can open the crate and take actual photos. Im sure it looks better in real life.

The new feet on the R2 wing are optional and don't have to be mounted with the uprights. Therefore producing a cleaner line and finish. I asked about any extra reinforcement required for the R2 wing and it seems that it is only required for the S2.

      Me too. Apparently the new version of Invision will allow some customisation so look forward to a 'Love' reaction and a new 'Like' icon.

      Which injectors are you using? It's likely the fuelling is off also, so as above.

      R34 Series 1 And 2 Front Reo Difference?

      Awesome to know. I have a Series 1, and When pulling my front bumper off for the first time i realised my reo/crash bar was a bit worse for wear, and was going to try pick up a better one soon just so i can replace it. Someone is selling a full series 2 front bar and brackets for a decent price, so was going to probably reuse my brackets and install the new second hand reo/crash bar. I also have a genuine Altia body kit to do up, spray and put on, and not sure if that will use the series 1 or series 2 brackets for the front bumper, so having both will be handy, and knowing i can drill holes out to make stuff fit between series is also handy to know!

      R34 Series 1 And 2 Front Reo Difference?

      I should also say that the while they are different the only parts that matter are the center headlight supports and center bar from S1 to S2. The center bar will work, but the S1 has holes that clips go through into the S1 bumper. So if you were super cheap you could simply drill the S2 bar. Same thing with the side/wings. They have slightly different 'clips' but can be made to work. The center headlight brackets however, cannot. This is also where the GTR differs, which has a different center bar, and different headlight supports (to either GTT system), it also has different 'wing' headlight supports which is what I am calling under the headlight. However those CAN be made to work with the GTT Reo for a GTR front bar by a small spacer and a drill/tapping a thread into the reo because the bolt positions are slightly different. So people only really need the center brackets to go between GTT S1, GTT S2, and GTR if you are happy to do some tinkering.
