^^^Listen to what the man said.

To the doubters...

Imagine downforce as a ton of bricks pushing down on the wing.

With that type of mounting it won\'t be long before those bolts fail.

If you were to whip off the bodyshell from the Nismo car (or any competently built racing car) you would find the rear wing is NOT attached in the same manner.

Never doubted you guys at all ... but the amount of down force on that wing would depend on the angle so could be a ton but could be half that amount to, and by the amount of money that guys invested in that car its a good guess he has invested alot of time to make sure that wing works still butt ugly though

looks like it took some effort!

by that do you mean bolting it on and slamming it down?

what an abysmal job. i\'m all for doing out of it custom stuff but that\'s just terrible. he could have at least cut the bit off over hanging the gaurd so that it follows the lines of the gaurd and can sit in properly, and reshaped the bit that meets the front grill, let alone doing something about the curve of v8 headlight area.

with an angle grinder and fiberglass i reckon i could make that look tidy. but why would you want to in the first place, i\'ve seen identical ones made specifically for gc8. plus it looks terrible. either scoop, or vents...not both!

no one else could have said it better.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
