Hi guys,

I recently picked up a nice set of R33 Ganador Mirrors. I first thought they were copies, but then I got them in the mail and in the inside of where all the wires are near the adapter piece there's some symbolic writing so perhaps they are real after all or good replicas?

Anyway, I was wondering what do most people think of these mirrors on a R33 GTR? At first I didn't like them but a mate of mine had it on his R33 and it looks quite nice so I didn't to buy a set.

What do you guys think? Nice or lame? And any pictures of them on your ride? I have not installed them yet so was wondering if they actually affect visibility at all??

Thanks guys - I have decided to install them...

But the screws holding the adapter piece (from within the window area) is stuck as in the screw's grooves are worn - how the heck do I remove them now to get to the mirror? Any ideas? Also, does any of your mirrors have tilt-control? The stock ones have wires so you can change the directions and they should also fold in - do Ganador mirrors do this?

Thanks to everyone's posting and pictures. You've made the decision easy. Much appreciated.

Cheers.

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
