i have a 92 vr-4 with the aero package. but for some reason my spoilier is stuck in the raised mode, even when im stopped. is there a way to put it back down manually?

 

There is a motor in there that is likely to be bad. WHen you flip it from auto to "off" does it sound like its trying to do anything?

 

Those things always **** up

 

Correct as usual, Seb. My brother had that same problem. The mirrors too. They wouldnt open back up.

 

no it doesnt sound like its doing anything. i was hoping that maybe there was some way to manually lower the wing. could it be that maybe a fuse or something went out?

 

Sure, thats a possibility.

 

well i checked all the fuses and they were fine. So i think you were right, the motor prolly went out. if i cant find a way to put it back down imma buy an aftermarket or a stock 3000gt spoiler. just outta curiosity does the raising and lowering of the spoiler actually have a purpose or is it just for show?

 

Eh.... Im sure it changes the drag coefficient by a (almost) useless digit... but to me it would seem that its mostly for show. Its cool... but damn near pointless, IMO.

 

thats what i figured. so that settles it imma just take it off and put a stock one on.

 

The only wind tunnel test I've seen concerning the active aero was done by some guy in Russia. His findings were it did make a difference at high speed. I cannot find the page now though.
