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've replaced the front brakes of my NA to 324 brembos and 350z calipers: i'm going for 225/40-18 up front and 245/35-18 in the back. I have Rays 7.5*19 ET35(225/35) in the front with 5mm spacers otherwise the calipers "lock up/ won't rotate". When i use the calculator i come up with 8*18 ET30 for 225/40...... but not sure i get problems with the calipers. Anyone riding around with 18 inch. that can confirm "that it'll fit"? In the back it's 7.5*9 ET30 (245/30) with the 5mm spacers, but there is no problem with the standard small brakes, so i want to take 8.5*18 ET25 (245/35).
    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
    • Welcome.  Here's what I have noticed about forum vs FB..... FB; seems to be wallet racing, and the same few questions asked over and over. There *may* be some groups that are closer knit, but most have changed for the worse. SAU; unfortunately, no longer in its glory days. But....genuine people with similar interests. Not all about how much you spent and saying you dont have enough power. Sooooooo much knowledge available. Have personally seen people post up about literally topics I made myself, asking on FB like no one has done it before. Most has been done, and most of that is here.   If you ever feel like just general chatting theres the wasteland.  Other interests are also generally covered in other areas of the forum. Hope you enjoy hanging around. We would love to have you.   P.s. nice 32 😀
