Does a rear high break light need to be fitted to the window as part of compliance if the standard spoiler isn't there? How much do they cost? I'm considering buying or maybe borrowing a standard spoiler and putting on temporarily for compliancing if that's possible. What are your thoughts, should i just put a high break light in?

High mount brake light is like $20 or so from somewhere like Supercheap Auto, Repco, etc. Not too hard to do, probably a lot less fiddling than putting on a standard spoiler if it's only a temporary solution.

The high mount brake lights are only required for vehicles manufactured from July onwards. Or maybe september, not 100% sure.

I would imagine you COULD fit a cheap one and remove it afterwards. However there is always the POSSIBILITY that an officer will be aware of the rulling and fine you for it.

For my 89 GTR compliance high mount rear brake light is mandatory requirement. Doesn't matter about the spoiler.

GTR spoilers don't have them that's why its required to fit one of the aftermarket ones on the back window, but for gts-t the high mount brake lights are on the standard spoiler. In my case I don't have the standard spoiler so I gather I would require a window one as part of compliance. Thats why I'm enquring about a spoiler because I have the option to fit a standard one if I really wanted to goto the trouble. Thanks for the offer to borrow your spoiler Dluded but I'm in Melbourne.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
