Has anyone done this with an aftermarket kit? I need to go get some 3M today, but I was trial fitting it last night and my Top Secret front bar does not have much lip underneath to attach to. Bit difficult because I don't want to screw into the side of the bumper, but there isn't much surface area for the double sided tape. Suggestions? I might have to fiberglass something up, just thought I'd see if anyone has any other ideas.

I'm just about to place an order for the 2nd group buy, did you want me to get you another? :P

Hey Charles, looks like i've missed round 2.

and amazon won't ship to my address... so if you end up getting more PM me to let me know and i'll send you some money to grab me some :D

also, where did you get that front bar extension?

PM Sent :)

Got a bit of a mix feeling from the lip the other day...

Pic 1 - It's awesome how it just bends back a little if I park too close, if it was a fibreglass lip, it woulda snapped lol

Pic 2 - Not so awesome, coming out of a car park, it was WAY too steep for my lowered car, it teared the lip :( BUT it kinda protected my actual fibreglass lip from being grated, so that's kinda good.. Just gotta re lip it..

Was waiting for something like that to happen ^

Another thing I thought of... I wonder what these things look like while you're traveling along at 80km/h+?? I keep wondering if here I am thinking my car look so awesome with my amazing lip, while people in other cars are driving past thinking "what the hell does that guy have caught on his front bumper, it's flapping around like crazy."

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
