Any pics of this? I can't think of what goes above the grill and on the bonet.

:confused:

err, i'm a little confused. Are there more bits to the splitter under the bonnet to direct air around or is that it?

I haven't seen one before but I'm guessing that it has a practical use. If its for show, just reply with the word "rice". :)

Its simple aero dynamics, by increasing the angle at which the air is forced over the bonnet, a temporary vaccumn (assuming the only airflow into the area is created by air moving from in front of the car into the car) is created on top of the bonnet in front of the windshield.

This is the theory behind the bug shield... by putting that little lip on the bonnet you divert airflow OVER the windshield instead of straight onto, and therefore pushing any bugs that are flying towards you over the windshield instead of straight into you.

It also looks cool, coz it looks like a stock GTR.

im dazed and a little confuzzled now :)

which parts are we getting done now???

-Front Lip

-Bonnet Splitter

-GTR Guards

-GTR Front Bar

-Rear boot lip

what else? :)

Put me down for the rear lip and front lip... and any side skirts that may be done too :D

****edit

oh yeah and...

how much for the GTR Front Guards?

Wow, hadn't noticed that splitter on r32s before. Had a look around and here are pics of them on GTRs:

Looks like R33s GTRs don't have them stock:

But some race GTRs use them:

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
