Nismo C/F Twin Blade Rear Wing on the R33 GT-R

Six bolts to adjust on installation instead of the usual four.

It is a nice piece.

I'm not sure l0ckym. It was swapped by V-Spec Performance along with a Nismo Ti strut brace in exchange for Magnesium TE37s that came across on the 33R.

V-Spec Performance in Melbourne has had them.

Gulp - just looked up vspec's website.
I'll be peeling a lot of potatoes yet :-(

Yes, steel.

The coating is easily scratched though, so it's best to spray the inside of the Nismo socket with Rust-oleum Peelcoat rubberized spray.

 

 Thank you Terry. 

I'm tossing up between Work wheel nuts ($280) or these Nismo ones ($195). Crazy expensive for bloody wheel nuts!

Have a look at McGard Splinedrive wheel nuts, I bought mine off Amazon (back when dollar was better), were a much better value option. Go the "installation kit". Work & BBS (& others) actually resell McGard nuts (Work Royal nuts for example).

Fit with heaps of clearance to my Lmgt4's

 Thank you so much! That pricing is much more reasonable! Only problem is I really wanted black wheel nuts and I can't find them in black. :( 

I may have to settle for chrome. 

 

-edit- I found black ones but the pricing isn't as good! :( 

Edited by ShortCircuit

Caved in and bought the Nismo wheel nuts. Didn't want any colour other than black and didn't want to fork out over $200 for wheel nuts. (Seems a little crazy to me). 

I will take on Terry's recommendations to keep them scratch free.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
