struts for a v3 wing?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Can anyone with a Veilside v3 wing share what struts they used? I daresay its a lot heavier than a Nismo V2, so I dont want to just blindly go for SGS' uprated ones. I reckon theirs can support 20kg of weight (for a pair) but if someone else went through the pain of trying then its worth knowing :p

the SGS uprated ones will still struggle to lift the V3 spoiler...from my experience with both

 

there will still be 20 odd cm from the moment you open the boot where you still need to give it a lift...

Fitting heavy duty springs to the pop ups will fix the initial release and thereafter either the SGS uprated struts or ask SGS to do a bespoke for you.

As Valy says then, I'll ask for maybe 50N more per strut than the uprated ones to be safe. Where can I get the springs? Thats a new one on me and it'd fix my dodgy boot popper too I guess!

In case someone in 3 years is googling and cant find the right answer, like me, 560N will hold it up but not actively lift it. Future internet guy, you're welcome :)
