another one? :( i think a mate may have one if you haven't got one already,

Yep....had a speedo cable for 2-3 weeks. Time for a few more nights in the shed :unsure:

Edited by TJHill

look forward to seeing this splitter :yes:

haha nothing too fancy mate, going for a bit of a industrial look. I'm actually making up something very simular to Brad sheriff's, and Peter Nunns. except i'm going to run 4 adjustable turnbuckle braces from the front coming down. I'll post up pics when I'm done :ninja:

build mine as im lazy and dont have time? :P ill pay you with a bucket load of... sarcasm and ridicule :P

ohhh sounds like a scam lol. Last fibreglass bar i worked on was Pisko's 350z bar after he stacked it at symmons. I'm still trying to get rid of the glass splinters haha. I'm not a fan but i need a whoop ass splitter, Mr Plow spec and its not going to build itself =)

you going 40ft wing to balance out the car if you build a splitter?

I've got a pair of genuine n1 adjustable cam gears if you don't want shiny hks/trust ones, or cheap and nasty ebays.

haha im broke dave, if u have them in another month or so i'll be interested :thumbsup:

Hi guys. Thought I'd post up a few pics of my front bar repair/mod progress. My front bar had a few decent cracks and had a fair size chuck missing on the lower front left hand corner so i went hell for leather with the glass. i chopped the bottom of the bar off level as the bar was lowest at the rear so it would of made the splitter sit up at a nasty angle. I've used ally sheet as the splitter itself. its 700mm deep and protrudes past the bar 5 inchs in the middle and just over 4 at the corners fadding back to inch at the sides. the ally is bolted to the bar in the middle and at the rear corners and i have just test fitted the 4 turnbuckle braces also.

just finished buzzing back the paint on the major surfaces and i have scotched the rest of it and i have put a light dust coat of etch over it as guide coat really, going to rub it down now with 400 ready for 3-4 coats of primer.

not going to be crazy fussy as its more of a prototype, looking forward to getting it on the car and eventually I'll buy a new bar and go again.

I've basically tried to replicate what is on Peter Nunn & Brad Sheriff's R32's.

cheers

Nice job! But for the ground effect to work you need to roll maybe two thirds of it up so that it's basicly like an upside down wing, if you look at V8 super cars you'll know what I mean. That's what I plan to do with mine, when work permits. Just my thoughts :blush:

Thanks wogboy. yes my plan is to tig or bolt two brackets at the back of the splitter and run some straps up around the sway bar with a 10mm thick anti vibration foam stuck to the splitter below the K frame. that way i can pull it up tight and if i run the straps I have here they have clips so they can be quick release should i want to get the bar off easily. I dont really want to mount it solid at the rear but I will if i have to.

looks awesome jack! i think you should make mine :blush:

ohhh I'm all splittered out atm lol.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
