Hi guys,

My ADR approved fibreglass bonnet arrives today.

I previously had a carbon fibre one but too many fines from police have forced me to change it.

No i dont use bonnet pins with my c/f bonnet and it is secured fine, no flapping at highspeed.

I want ot know if people think i should use bonnet pins with the fibreglass one.

Also does any one know if htey are legal in QLD?

Thanks in advance.

Where did you get the bonnet and how much? If you don't mind my asking :action-smiley-069:

I got a ADR approved one from www.blitsbodykits.com.au .

They are awsome and will deliver. The bonnet is not as light as my C/F one but is a little lighter that stock steel bonnet.

They are the only peopl eto hold a ADR for a fibreglass r33 bonnet.

The ADR is very strict with design requirments which is why this bonnet is not as light as my C/F one.

It is certainly the most sturdy non steel aftermarket bonnet i have seen.

Fitment is perfect.

Price is outstanding and you also have peice of mind next time a police man tries to pin u for having a fibreglass bonnet :banana:

Blits are great to deal with, family run business.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
