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.

Happy? :)

 

Anyway, back to wing stuff...

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!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
