Gh05t's 32 Gtr Daily Cleanup

[Adz2332]

yours isnt the silver gtr with the rocket dancer wing lip and the enkies is it?

what front lip is that??? or diffuser lip or what ever its called

[okooko]

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.

Excellent how was the quality and fitment??

[okooko]

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

[GH05T]

Yay new things.

Need to get some decent doublesided thick tape now eh. 3M ?

[WantGTR]

Curious to know if the 3m tap will hold properly and not damage the paint?

[GH05T]

well, my boot has original holes, i have thought about drilling into the spoiler but not sure how well that would work.

[IcedTea]

Thought about sikaflex if you don't want to drill? A few people here have fitted body bits with that - would hold better than tape?

[GH05T]

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?

[okooko]

id use sikaflex only if you never want to remove it

[IcedTea]

have you had trouble with it peeling paint? What would you suggest instead?

[okooko]

Ive just been told its great if you want it on as it wont come off without damaging the paint

[k_d]

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.

[GH05T]

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.

[k_d]

Yeah definately use the holes if you have them, mine didnt hence the tape

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.
