R33 Gtr Spoiler End-caps.


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

I'm wanting to end some nice rear wing end-caps for my R33 GTR.

So far, I've found two types - one is from JustJaps and the other is from China which is cast in a carbon-fiber looking material.

Which you guys think looks best?

Justjap (full colour): http://www.justjap.com/store/product.php?p...=320&page=2

Chinese replicas (carbon fiber cast): http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Skyline-R33...=item3cad62aa35

The thing is, with the carbon fiber ones - I've been told that the word "GTR" is only ever is embossed on one side being the right side? This is true and why? Does this apply for the Just Jap ones too?

Please advise if I can get a set of "Nismo" ones too?

Cheers,

For those who have replaced their factory end caps with carbon ones I am after a set of standard end caps in silver for my track car.

PM me if you have some for sale.

The end caps like that are by Nismo

there are 3 types

one with the older "squiggle" design / logo of nismo

Then there are the ones in the above pictures that just have "GT-R"

then there are the much rarer ones which actually say "nismo" with the o being red as in the new design

all are discontinued bar the "GT-R" ones

they were never a stock item, on the standard production r33

I guys, I've tried everywhere...even tried calling Nissan - said I needed to go to a performance place with ties to Nismo directly.

I actually like the Carbon Fiber looking ones but want them the word "GTR" to be on both sides as it looks a bit weird being only on one side.

If you have any suggestions please let me know.

Please ignore above message - you have to be a registered member to get accurate postal costings. I used EMS worldwide and it's going to cost me $134 delivered - which is awesome as JustJap would have been $200 + $30 delivered! Cheers.

    • Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info 
    • It looks like you've got Ikeya control arms and an aftermarket sway bar, maybe whiteline?  Or am I just going crazy? lol Unfortunately it won't, but what it will do is look really pretty. That's about all unfortunately.  How much neg camber do you currently have? Generally lowing the car dials in quite a bit of neg camber as it is. If you do go down this path, your best bet is get adjustable arms, toe arms (or preferably a good HICAS elimination kit) and traction rods. With all 3 being adjustable, you'll be able to dial out any bump steer that is introduced by playing with the camber settings. 
    • Great discussion guys. I just have coil overs in my car right now. Ride is pretty stiff and everything feels very precise and accurate when hitting the corners. I started off with a high level and kept specimen.   the only item I feel I might need to adjust is my camber with control arms or a kit as I might want to tuck in my rims more so there is no rubbing. Otherwise I have not thought too much into it as quite happy with the setup. I think the bushings are all good still.    My motor is currently out now but I have got a nismo front strut bar to install. So that should help with body roll in front.    added a photo of what I started with before the modding or let’s say modernization of parts started. 😂
    • Thank you both, much appreciated. Yes, 6k miles, not a typo lol. The underside, engine bay, engine, trunk, interior, etc., look great and super clean, has all the splash guards too. Not sure if you can expand the photos, but the dash pic shows the ODO. She looks brand new, inside and out, even has the original Nissan TV/DVD/Nav head unit; still thinks it's in Tokyo haha! I used to own a '94 MKIV Supra, sadly sold it years ago, but wow I love the Skyline so much! The R34 gets SO much attention here since they just became legal to import last year.  
    • I'm going to have to call shenanigans on the 6000 miles. There haven't been any R34s with 10000km on the ODO since the mid 2000s. Photos of the pedal rubbers, seats, carpets, etc required to even consider the possibility. At that many miles the underside should look almost completely new. The movement of the gear stick is likely to be 100% normal. As Duncan said, the differences from an auto may be surprising. It is a mechanical thing, not an electro-hydraulic isolation device.
