hay buddy

what ill do is when i get home (and it stops fkn raining) ill measure the gap where they would sit in the opening of the front bar. if u could please measure the gap from the front section of the canard top to bottom i could better guage the physical size of the thing.

ill also speak to my mate shane from psi parts and see if we could modify them and remake them again in carbon

thanks dude

Not sure I know where you mean but the front section that wraps around is what i measured.

The outside measurement is 21 centimetres and the inside is 17 centimetres.

Reproducing these in wet carbon fibre would not be hard at all. The trickest part would be making up the molds -

1) waxing component to be copied with several layers of special wax

2) coating with tooling gelcoat

3) applying poly resin and reinforce with fibreglass mash

4) repeat step 3 until a thick enough layer is built up

5) wait until cured and 'pop' it out

Once the mold is made, you can make copies of the part by using carbon fibre fabric, you could even use carbon-kevlar or even kevlar on its own depending on the look youre after.

The trick is not to stirr up the resin too much when mixing in the hardener (Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide - MEKP) - this creates bubbles and you dont want bubbles appearing all over the top of the layer of carbon fibre.

I've made up many carbon parts by using this technique.

Anyways, hope that helps.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
