Are those prices for real????

But yeah you have the idea of what I want to do - raise the height of my stock wing.

But thanks - I knew those extension exisited but we couldn't find out WHO made them. But for those prices forget it. I'd rather buy a whole c-west wing and have the choice of using the whole wing or just the uprights - and I'd still be saving money.

Doh... that price HAS to be for the whole wing...

I read it as ¥20,580... somebody has to sell them or copies of them.

I guess you could get some copies made. But as I have recently experienced, getting things made is a painful experience.

Yeah my biggest concern about getting something MADE is having the wing fall off under load down the main straight of Phillip Island. What I want to do will put greater pressure on the wing - which it why I really want to look the uprights before I buy them.

The stock wing is quite big and I think it would do a fantastic job on the track if it was just at a more useable height.

Snow.

My next project after the Turbo ducts is actually replacing the standard plastic uprights on the GT-T wing with Billet Machined Aluminium uprights which I will design myself.

I'd assume that the same bolt holes would be used on the boot of the GT-T (as the factory would punch the holes) but the top might be different.

I wouldn't thin kyou would have to worry about the strength. I will be making then about 8mm wide and very ridig.

They will be bolting into the boot with a bracket on each side, not just on one side.

I'll let you know when I get closer.

Everything about that upright looks good - except for the base. Looks like its just glued on! And that scares the crap outta me! LOL.

Check out the c-west design. Very sturdy uprights and as you can see a large area where the base fixes - similar in area to the R34 stock ones you can see in the mines extensions above.

It also states that the gt wing was/is removed maybe he has it for sale?? the boot mounts seem to be more solid.

Cheers Rob

I've PM'ed the owner of that car and asked to come and have a look at his wing.

What I did notice though it that his particular mounts aren't in the standard location.

They are much closer together.

I might just go and pull my wing off now and have a look at some stuff.

I'll be back.

Ah, just had a look and it's not as easy to remove as I thought.

I will have to remove all the trim underneath the boot and pull the top off the wing and all that crap.

It's a hour's job to get it off and on again....

i've got a honeycomb aluminium T wing (not the moulded carbon style). Sits about 15-20 cm above the boot and has an adjustable aluminium mount n all. Looks similar to the Jun one, just lower. If you wanna check it out I'll bring it to the next meet.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
