Want To Modify Standard Bonnet

[adznight]

Hmmmmm, I'm looking to have my bonnet turned into this if possible, let me know what you think Freddy. Is it possible or not worth it?

[Daz]

hmm almost 100% sure I saw a very very similar looking bonnet in his garage last time i was there

[adznight]

Sweet! I'm in like flyn.

[topstage]

dezz i will give you pricing soon. as i got r33 and just have to work it out

Dazi will work on it on 16th of june bro, quick Q's how come u're in the Skyline australia man????

i don't get it.....

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...

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

[dezz]

thanks mate

[Daz]

Hey Freddy, cant wait til the bonnets all done I used to own a r34 before so ive been a member on here for quite some time plus their a pretty good bunch and very informative.

[Daz]

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...

[Daz]

yeah for sure mate, hows the ceffy coming along??

[PIMP_DAT]

coming along slowly, just need a clutch then hopefully see 250 -260 on .9 bar. keep us udated i saw the color in another thread somewhere looks mad.

[adznight]

Freddy - Nice, will have to pop in and see you in that case.

Daz - Looking good mate, can't wait to see it. Bonnet looks awesome, just like the real one!

[Daz]

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 , 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.

[topstage]

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?

[Daz]

Sure will Freddy, goes in the booth next weekend and then back to RE Customs for engine work...

[Al]

VERY nice Daz, can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Doing anything fancy with the colour/paint?

[Daz]

Sure am mate, going a once off kandy purple, got to finish it off with some nice rims maybe gtc's... and dumped.... Heres a pic off the color, we tested it by spraying one of the door jams.... btw r u working at Calder next friday?

[Al]

NICE!!!!

Should look great

Will not be at Calder.
