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

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

****edit

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:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
