i don't get it..... :laugh:

Adzmaxwhat you are lookin there is NISMO bonnet vents, yes i can turn your bonnet into it, but i prefer to do somethin different for r34, got the design in my mind already... :D

KEV... your car is well in progress man...

  • 1 month later...

As promised I took a couple of pics of the bonnet that freddy made for me, its only been placed on the car and has'nt been fitted along with the light covers etc. All I can say is that I would recomend Freddy (TopStage) to anyone, his done a mint job and exactly what I wanted. I'll put more pics up once the car is painted etc. Hopefully in the booth next weekend...

PIMP DAT- 250-260 on only .9 bar is unreal mate cant wait to see it.

Adzmax- Yeah mate it looks very similar, I still thought the real one had a bit too much venting. I cant believe how slow everything is going, but it will get there before summer :P, we will def have to go for a cruise when its back on the road.

Just a query, when changing bonnets to CF or adding large vents, does it need an engineering cert? I've heard conflicting advice, some people say it does not, as it's like a body kit, others say it does, as it alters the cumple zone characteristics.

I only ask as I'm considering a new bonnet for my 32, and am floating up going CF or getting a GTR bonnet and putting a vent where the air pod is.

DAZ, THat is niceeeeeeee dazzzz.. make sure you bring your bitch around once finished mate....

Adzmax for production, we have R34 single dip that we are releasing very soon. that nismo slats style vents are bad news for RB coil packs man i the rain...... guaranteed in couple of weeks in rainy days you'll be crying for new sets. that's why i do single vented for skylines ( caring for customers here :( )

BUT.... if you want moulded on the existing bonnet, i'll do it and i will place drip tray underneath them to protect the coil packs.

Kozeyekan the facts is.... if you have fiberglass or CFreinforced with fiberglass bonnet, you'll be safe as long as it has crumple zone. it has to be specified in the product specs. because conventional CF bonnet will snap on the hinge part and it will be bad news.

the safest bet for you is... do waht DAZ did, modify your OEM bonnet.

attached couple of my multi slats vents that is available now ready to mould it on your bonnet.

I like the look of that. Could you PM me a rough quote to modify a GTS-4 bonnet to include a smaller, side mounted vent? (i.e. above the pod) or something similiar?

    • TBH, it sounds like the threads on the bolt are fubar in a specific section. Most likely as you've been working it back and forth it has torn threads out, as you loosen the bolt, this section enters the nut, now you're spinning a round shaft inside the nut, there's no threads here.   Use something similar to a claw on a hammer that will fit either side of the bolt head and try to apply downward force while also undoing it. The idea is to attempt to catch a thread, or just rip the f**ker out. Caution on ripping out, as it could bend/maime/mangle what the captive nut attaches to. If the captive nut is actually okay, you could do the dirty part of cutting the head off the bolt, then cut a slit in the end of the thread that's now exposed and then screw it up and into the area the captive nut is until it falls out the other side. However, this does risk the remainder of the bolt rusting over time and damaging near the captive nut and also making it rust. However, so can cutting pieces of panel work out to access this area if you don't reseal it properly.
    • Well, every piece of information on that part when you track it back to Nitto says it's for a KIT of theirs. It is also designed thicker to be stronger. And they speak about a specific harmonic balancer bolt they supply for the whole setup.
    • Techniques for removing stuck bolts are: hitting the bolt head with a hammer, heating the bolt to red hot then letting it cool and working it back and forth like you are already doing. AFAIK the idea is to try to crush whatever material is stuck between the threads (and heat also melts locktite but that's almost certainly not relevant in this case).
    • Yuh, I think it works with the Nitto gear only. I presume that you're not also using the Nitto gear? Watch the video. Compare the interface between the Nitto gear and washer (on the gear side) vs the stocker and decide if you think the Nitto gear is different from stock there.
    • Liking the new charger, battery all good (I think).   Also like how you can put it in power supply mode too. Will troubleshoot with that sometime soon.
