Cool idea, I wonder if it can be adapted to GTS throttlebody???

[Bignate]

anybody brave enough to see if rb26 itb's have solid shafts so we could grind them flat?

[mcfly]

did he ever end up making them? i did that article to get some interest in the hope enough people would sign up for a set.

[Terrh]

man I'd love a set of those. I don't think they got made though.

[j-ran]

has anybody attempted to shave their shaft down a bit? lol
or would removing that metal weaken it too much?

Probably can redesign it.

Mines have experimented with shaft design on bored out stock R35GTR throttle body.

The owner of Mines explains what they do to throttlebody on R35GTR in this videoclip -

I would assume they have done this throttlebody mod before on R32-R34GTR.

it could be done assuming the shafts are solid. if they were hollow it might cause some issues.

I wanna work at mines... what a dream company, i LOVE mines as a company my god, they're so dedicated to their goals... best company, best products.

The smart thing to do would be a vertical throttle body shaft. Rather then horizontal.

I understand how they did it, great idea.
