thanks for that champ i will edit the post :)

narh not seibon products. that picture was illustration purposes only.

they are being made in china.

if there being made in china i highly doubt they are 100% CF... goodluck with your group buy....

supplier as confirmed they are full cf but i dont think so either..

still these are cheaper then any other else.

racespec sell NON CF bonnets for $700.

Hate to burst your bubble but DMAX is made in China not Japan.

i never said they were made in japan.

isn't CF illegal or am i wrong?

don't you have S1 bonnet?

sorry no s1 bonnets dude.

you would have to check with your roads & Traffic authories and regulations in regarding to this as every state is different.

lol traders fighting

anyways, is this group buy going or wot?

and can the group buy whyte confirm how much of the bonnet is cf?

yes its going ahead, i've got 2 people interested in the 180sx bonnets. just need 3+ more poeple before i can start making the order and everything will be underway.

my supplier says its full carbon but poeple say its not full cf at that price (which i thikn is true) so its just frp bottom + 2 /3 layers of CF on top.

if you were doing R34GTT bonnets I think you would do some good business .....

yeah i think so too but supplier doesnt have any r34 bonnets unforunately.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
