This is Abusd's bonnet which i couldn't get him to sell me his bonnet.. :laugh:

Fell in love with the bonnet after first time seeing it..

From what he tells me, he got the vents moulded on to his original bonnet but I couldn't get him to tell me where he got the job done or who done it for him?

So folks... know any place or a person who this kind of a job? Moulding vents on bonnets? Where can i go?

This is what i want on my bonnet exactly!!

i think that car has the blinker in the parker lights.

basically you could get a fabricator to make that out of steel, then weld onto the std bonnet.

Or get a BA falcon fibreglass bulge (like on fatz s13) then cut up and insert the vent partitions onto that then glass that onto your cut std bonnet..

The bulge is more then likely an BA falcon bonnet bulge, theres someone on ebay selling just the bulged part which you mould onto your bonnet, a mate of mine bough one for a mustang, the vents will probably have to be your handy work.

Not to be a pain ass mate but is it possible if you could digg up that item from ebay?

Frankly I wouldn't know which part of ebay to look at for this item, there's too many auto parts ranging from sections to section in that site.

Cheers mate

u sure there 400r sides? look vertex style (although they dont make anything for 33's), im after a more subtly kit for mine, the BN sides are friggin huge, look good....but i wanna change it around a little

I think on a series 2 front end the bulge without those vents would look good, as the bonnet on a series II has the lines in it just like a BA. It doesnt suit the series 1 at all I think.

Putting one of them on would put you in the same groups as someone putting a WRX scoop on a skyline..

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
