its close. and its touched a bit which is evident from some tarnished. i want to get a nice TI exhaust at some point. then ill work the hangers out.

a dude came up to me at the end meet who owns a nice 33gtr with some porn... i think work wheels. added me into the gtr cruising club. let me know if your a member. he was parked upstairs too. keen to get out with some more gtr guys

Yeah TI exhaust would be awesome but for me it's for minimal gain haha.

Have a 3in AM performance dump back from ages ago and it works well (and sticks out a abit)

nope not in that group.

Yeah was alright.

CF overlay in visible areas, rest i think was FRP.

Fitment is perfect and quality is good.

I mean, even if it was the original abflug lip, it would essentially look the same.

excellent will buy a few things from the current one going then.

was a bit hesitant due to fitment as its hard to umm shape and what not carbon overlay with out damaging it etc

as my boot already has holes in it from the original spoiler, im going to assume i can just drill into the base of the spoiler (carbon copy styles)

what screws/bolts whatever, would i use to hold it? just something relatively large and self tapping or?

Yeah, its a permenant fixture option lol. Yes it will damage the paint so would advise against it unless its never going to be removed. I used 3m tape on mine. 240kph and it stayed on. Dont remember which particular tape it was though, they arent all the same.

yes well when i fit the spoiler it is unlikely i will be taking it off. when i do it will be for a respray anyway, the boot needs it due to some irreparable scratches.

i had a test fit yesterday with some double-sided thick tape but it was a bit shit. the fitment is not %100 either so it needs to be pressed down.

im thinking of just using the tape for placement and to seal it and using proper screws to fit, like i said i already have the boot holes so might as well make use of them.

picked up a larger front pipe and fitted it up in the hopes that i would get a bit more volume from the exhaust.

even though the pipe diameters are larger it made f**k all difference.

i know i need to probably do the dumps but ill do that when i do the turbos as its a bitch of a job.

i might even look at deleting the center muffler, the rest is quite large Apexi fitup and a decat.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
