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.

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
