Has anyone DIY made up tabs similar to the Bee*r wings for GTR's? They use the factory mounts and put a larger blade ontop of the position the standard one sits.

I've got a 33 that is used for club days and track events and I want to chuck a giant f**k off wing on it for a drift day we're doing. Car will be trailered so being horribly illegal isn't an issue.

 

If anyone has done this and can provide me some decent photos (or even a CAD drawing) that would be sick. I think Richo did something similar before getting that topstage wing? Not sure.

Do you need a big spoiler, more rear downforce, for a drift day.

I believe richo made larger end plates but i didnt read of anything else...

No it's 100% for wank. You know, fun? :-) 

 

The 33 has all the fruit. 25/30, big brakes good pads, braided everything. It's pretty well sorted. I wanted to lighten it up a bit with some fun.

I'm not here for the wing....just waiting for you to start a build thread:1310_thumbsup_tone1:

Ahh fair enough. This part of it from another forum. I figured that SAU has had the same shit done to death over and over again no point posting it. But here you go!

P.S Ignore the messy factory. I had a factory in oakleigh just storing some bits (3 drift cars, a bunch of engine bits and it all ended up disassembled on the floor lol)

Or part of the thread:

Now the current stage! So my engine hydrolocked and bent a rod

:(

Enter: RB30DET Neo.

Running the same turbo setup, upgraded to 1000cc denso injectors on an aftermarket rail, earls fittings (Cheers earl!), GTR FPR due to logistics of the rail etc.

Still sticking with the Nistune.

Thanks mate, looks like a lot of work, good job!

 

The more info the better, it helps everyone with their builds too ;)

 

Haha its true!

 

I might post it up sometime.. Still in the middle of tuning it haha.

 

Now! Anyone done one of the wing things? I know richo did something similar so thats the kind of thing im going for.. but ridiculously big. Drift wang spec.

I'm contemplating a mod for my R33 GTR wing too.  But I don't really like the look of the raised wings.

So, basically I plan to extend the wing on the sides with more wing surface (cut from the OEM since I'm running a Carbon centre wing).  Flat end plates on those winglets.  I do my own carbon fibre overlay and epoxy so just need to ensure the carbon weave is similar to the existing carbon wing.

Then for added down force I want to fabricate a flap extension for the back of the existing wing.  I will probably contour it to give a bit more aggressive look but plenty of surface.  That will be tied to the existing wing and braced with turnbuckle supports tied to the boot.

All design planning phase right now.

Let me know what you come up with!

 

I have a big GT wang to use. Mines more for wank when I do drift events. The GTR wing stays on it. I want to be able to unbolt it and put the standard blade back in for when it's doing anything else!

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
