Did you buy them seperatly or did it come with them?

Came with them fortunately. I had a hard enough time getting a 260RS wing, i wouldn't want to have to look for a set of those. i see what you're getting at with your eyelids, i reckon it'd look good on the angle, similar to how S15's do it

I prefer what mine looks like... ;)

Edit: How do you get the images to display full sized like above?

ahh, got it. Though I still don't know how to get them up to this server, as my understanding is that the gallery has been dead since the transfer....

Terminal, how much did the wing cost you?

as l've been thinking of trying to get one for my car, to loose that "ovlov" look a bit more!! ;)

I bought it through the forum from someone for $300. it's a 260RS copy, so it didn't come with some of the fittings and i had to get them made up. painting and fitment was another $200.

ian, yeah series 2 seem to have a much more aggressive look to them, I just dont like the lights in the grill personally.

97r33gtst-typeM - Only problem then is when Mr Plod does the whole, "Bend over and let me look at your mods..." thing you cant just say, "Well it'll take me 2 seconds to remove them with a philips head screw driver officer, how about I just remove them right now, save you writing out a defect ticket?" :O

Chances are the coppa will give you a ticket anyway, also with painted on it looks flat, whereas with bolt on's you can get them to match the bodywork so the eyelids fit to the contour of the shape of the bonnet.

I'm going to start playing around with cardboard cutouts this weekend probably and see just how fiddly it would be to cut/bend these up. Probably send to Bass Junky for mass production if required, but I dont see a huge interest in them.

Well it looks like most people think they are gay.

Meh I've never been one to cave into popular opinion, cardboard cutouts created, going to have a play around with some different sheetmetal bits and see what the overall effect is.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
