Bonnet is on the best that it can be... the RB30 conversion has set the overall height of the engine higher by 40mm and the front of it is fouling on the bonnet support (even with heat shielding off). Without lowering the subframe, cutting the supports, the only way we could achieve a closed bonnet was to space it up.

It's a bit unsightly... but then again the car was never built to be 'pretty'. Does a good job at venting away hot air though as there is now a clear route that heat can escape from under there.

Maybe later I'll get some custom guard moulds made up to blend up to the top of the bonnet (removing the gap). Will just make the front look mega-beefy.

Haha, you told me to show it off, Alex.

Getting it tuned on Friday. Considering how hard it already goes, it should be quite fun!

I want the LMGT4s, but obviously everything is so expensive at the moment. I may have to fork out for a set.

Thanks, fellas.

So, where to get the LMGT4s? I looked on Nengun, for 19x10.5, +15, it equates to roughly $4500. I'd be happy to pay that, though my last dealing with them wasn't the best. Anyone care to point me the right direction?

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
