Yeah thats because i'm designing it... now i got all my other carbon stuff done i can start working on it...

the airbox will be made in the front right hand side and mine will be open top and seal against my carbon bonnet.. will also be ceremic coated same thing we do to all of our V8 race stuff... helps keep the heat out too.. will post pics as i go along..

i do all my own carbon fibre work mate, as i'm a qualified composite technician.. if you need stuff anything done just give Custom Carbon a call.. details are in my sig

maybe ill get mine remade...

see how different it is.

the carbon bit on the bottom (usually black plastic) is off a series 1/2. Series 3 have a larger, deeper lip with brake ducts.

Cool can see the difference now (and the blue on the seats in the first lot of pics). The lip on my car is rooted from the previous owner. Was considering a carbon one, but would prefer the S3 shape.

why is the carbon is such big squares? Can you do it in smaller squares?

carbon is big squares because i wanted something that would draw attention, you will not see another bonnet like it, unless i make another one for someone else ha ha.. yes can do carbon in a smaller weave.. i think your after the standard 3k carbon twill personally i think its boring because everyone has it.. i like to be different..

you sure its a series 3?? it hasn't got the front lip.

series 2 with series 3 headlights...

series 2's have the brake ducts too.... :D just the lip is not as agressive.. glad i dont have one as my driveway has worn the bottom off the series 2 one anyway. series 3 one i wouldn't be able to get in my driveway at all.

Series 3 lip:

Looks more aggressive than the S1/S2. Also bigger brake ducts. If i had of had a fibre glass one it would of been shattered by now.... avoid fibreglass, orig plastic is the goods, CF is probably in between the 2?

Out of interest - what would one of those carbon front lips cost? what about your bonnet? I assume its full CF not half fibreglass?

the lip is $880 Inc GST they come clear 2-pak'd with UV stable 2pak and bolt straight up..

bonnet hmmm something like that would be around $3500 Inc GST and yes its 100% carbon fibre NO fibreglass also comes clear 2pak'd with UV stable 2pak and bolts straight up perfect.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
