hey guys, anyone interested in a group buy for vented fibreglass bonnets for either the R32 or R33 or R34? only 5 or more of each at a time unless i can get 5 R32 ppl and 5 R33 ppl etc but 5 is the minimum.

these bonnets are 3-4x lighter then standard metal bonnets so you are shaving alot of weight there.

i need 5 people & pick up in sydney is allowed or extra for delivery anywhere in aus. ill have a definate price tomorow of the total cost per bonnet for 5 people. a $200 deposit is required to hold your spot and to get things moving. if possible i need everything done by late this week and maybe i can stretch it to next friday. it will take around 3 months or so to get it moulded, copied, made, prepped and sent back here.

tell me which one you most prefer and unforunately all 5 have to be the same style vent!

these are the vents available - i can possibly add little vents in like the R34 GTR VSPEC NUR on the passenger side - tell me what you guys would prefer and that will determine the total price (ranging from $470-$550) and final outcome of the bonnet. so out of the 5 people, decide which vent you guys want and how you's would want the bonnet to look.

there contact number is 9609 6096

Start date whenever and end date is 3-4months from the day i get them sent off. will give a definate date when i get everything ready (meaning if i get all the bonnets and ppl organised)

I can also get cheap discount prices on large quantitys bought on body kits. (a group buy on skyline kits is possible?)

if someone is willing to donate their bonnet, ill work out a discounted price for them and some sort of cash arrangement :worship:

this thread will be updated reguarly with progress and pics (if possible) of the bonnets.

my number is 0424723200 and i can be contacted on that or here via pm. :PBJ:

Only 2 pics shown dude....

Are they street legal? How safe are they at speed?

Im guessing it does not include matching req paint colour?

yes it will require paint dude.

it is required you get bonnet pins anyway for extra saftey.

theres only two pics but thats because its the main vent, as i said i can add a little vent in like the NUR SPEC GTR R34 :ban:

Nothing for R34?

i can get R34 if you find me 5 people who would be interested in it.

I think he wants to see a R34 bonnet pic... so do I :D

Will the price be any different if I want just a standard bonnet in Fibreglass? No vents... I have plans of my own :O

styles are what i have above.

can do standard bonnets but i need to find a r34 bonnet. how much do they cost alone anyway?

satanic - find me 5 ppl including yourself and ill do the r34 bonnet in plain fibreglass.

i dont think it will affect price either way. depends how much the bonnet will cost outright.

can someone pm stan we only need one more for a r34vented bonnet i like the first one so its stan,me wogboy,lithus and one more i would donate my bonnet depending on how long it would take?

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
