Going good. I attached using screws with a larger washer as it holds it down well. So far the bottom rubber lip has been abused and well outlasted any frp, plastic or carbon If it scrapes it folds

that is the right stuff as stated a couple of pages back and 9 foot is plenty enough to do the front bar

looks good but i can tell you it wont last long..

It has no problem lasting if applied right and if you don't scrape it, but then if you scrape a fibreglass one, it can smash aswell.

Anyway, due to interests, I'll put up another group buy soon :)

After having mine on for about 3 months now, I'm now trying to think of a longer term solution. This stuff looks good when it's first applied, but mine is looking in pretty perilous condition now. Cracks everywhere, shows up dirt very easily, and just doesn't want to stay stuck on (though that's an issue with my front bar not having enough surface area).

But having had the lip now and seeing how much better it makes my car look, I don't want to take it off :( Need to think of a way to attach it better I think...

I honestly think this lip can be a long term solution if applied right.

I mean, to get it ripped off, you'd have to badly scrape a driveway, and even if you have a fibreglass lip, that thing would shatter anyway.

$25 lip vs $200-300 fibreglass lip...

I've looked at this thread a few times and am considering doing it to my 33 instead of a Nismo style lip which is more expensive and I'm not really sold on.

Has anyone been running one long term? Or did everyone give up on these??

I've had my rear ones on my car since i started this thread, don't have a problem at all. But the front, it got ripped off when i drove down a deep drive way lol (but i guess it woulda been worse if it was a fibreglass lip).

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
