Hey guys,

Me got an '93 R33 and it has one of these electronic front spoiler jobbies. It is supposed to work when over 80km/hr, controlled in the driver's seat by pushing a couple of buttons. Anyways I can only get it to work when i'm parked and have the handbrake on, or so it seems.

Throw some light on the subject!!!!!:)

The buttons are there so you can lower it when parked with the park brake on for cleaning or just admiring after all this is the only time you can see it . It pops back up when the handbrake comes off and activates automatically around 80Kph both up and down.

Anyone want to count up how many times this question has been answered here and on SDU :)

Spot on...

Reading from the manual

"GT Auto Spoiler switch

With the ignition ON the Auto spoiler has 3 modes: UP, DOWN, AUTO. Press the UP switch to have the Spoiler permanently in the UP position. Press the DOWN switch to have the Spoiler permanently in the DOWN position. Do not press either switch to have the spoiler in the AUTO position. In this mode the spoiler will automatically come down when the vehicle is driven over 70km/h and the spoiler will automatically rise back up when the vehicle slows to less than 50km/h"

how do we get a hold of the manuals?????

To My Knowledge no manuals exist except for a comprehensive owners book about $60 www.rmaimports.com.au which is worth having and an engine manual for the R32 which covers the CA18i RB20E, RB20DE,RB20DET, RB25DEand RB26DETT about $160

Some time ago gts32t posted in the sales business forum that he gould get any manuals translated to English for around $180 but was not willing, apparantly, to divulge any further info eg the source manual

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
