toecutter Posted July 28, 2003 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2003 Occasionally I come across a pic of one of the old school rear fin spoilers. I think they have a real cool 70's look to them. Were they made by datsun? What do you guys think of this style of spoiler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zachb55 Posted July 28, 2003 Share #4 Posted July 28, 2003 isnt the one from MSA, the "BRE Style spoiler" just like that? i know they have a couple that look like that, i cant tell the difference between them, maybe one is a one piece and the other is a three piece? if i were to put a spoiler on my car it would deffinately be something like that.-Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEFF Posted July 29, 2003 Share #5 Posted July 29, 2003 I'm trying to find the 3 piece style.- Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachb55 Posted July 29, 2003 Share #6 Posted July 29, 2003 hmmm, ok im looking at my mag and they have a "one piece spoiler" part # 50-1573, and the "BRE style spoiler" # 50-1527. i can see obvious physical differences but the BRE looks to be a one piece. i know i have seen those exact spoilers in three sections, i just dont recall where, i bet i have a pic of one on my site... ill have to look, maybe someone just took the BRE and chopped it to their specs. i cant find any three piece spoilers anywhere. the third car down on page 10 looks like the spoiler is connected on the sides, so it must be a three piece, but it doesnt look like a BRE spoiler.-Zach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zr240 Posted July 29, 2003 Share #7 Posted July 29, 2003 Hi guys I also have a 3 piece rear spoiler which I am currently fitting to my race car. It is a copy of the ones that they ran at lemans in the 70's except it raps around the back a bit more. It should be fitted on the car by next weekend. I will try and get a chance to take a photo of it. If it works well on the track I will be making a mold so if people are interested I can make a few.Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSZ Posted July 29, 2003 Share #8 Posted July 29, 2003 I have one on the rear of my car, a one piece like the orange 240 and it also has a platform on the right hand side as if a badge should be mounted there, is this a 'BRE' spoiler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav240z Posted July 29, 2003 Share #9 Posted July 29, 2003 There not actually a BRE spoiler but they were an optional spoiler as part of the 432R range.It was made by Nissan alright and were often fittted by dealers. I don't know if it's possible to get them new from Nissan but there are a few replica's that are being made.I like the spoiler but passed up on one because I have a thing about drilling into the sheet metal on my Z. Just can't do it well yet anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toecutter Posted July 29, 2003 Author Share #10 Posted July 29, 2003 yer the drilling part is something to be considered. I like the idea of the one peice spoiler. I think a black one on my red car would look sweet. Is there a place that stocks them in Victoria. It would be nice to see one before buying one. Perhaps there is a way to modify it so it can be glued on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toecutter Posted July 29, 2003 Author Share #11 Posted July 29, 2003 hey gav how much the guy want to sell you the spoiler for??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav240z Posted July 29, 2003 Share #12 Posted July 29, 2003 it was Nathan(Zpeed) he only wanted $150 for it, think he sold it to someone ask Zr240 he sold that one to Nathan . Never actually saw it and I agree black would look great, However I think if I ever do it I'll put the Flares on and Gnose or maybe front spoiler. By then I think I'd be over drilling and wouldn't mind hehe. But yeah black all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
