People, check with your insurers first. I was going to get these for my MR2 but Just Car said they dont cover scissor doors or carbon bonnets for that matter.

I do like them but just didnt get them because of this reason. Id say youd have worse luck with the likes of NRMA or AAMI covering these aswell.

Also make sure your passanger is fully aware of the scissor doors as the brackets can bend if pulled open too far, ive been there before, LOL

Just because they do not cover it doesnt mean you cant have it on the car..

I called them and asked about a CF bonnet as my GTR bonnet was damaged in a hail storm. They told me I was allowed to put in on the car and there wont be any problems but if I am in an accident or some thing happens to the bonnet they will replace it with a standard bonnet.

So when they say "they dont cover it", they usually mean they will replace with standard if a claim is made.

Yeah im definately interested thats why i started this thread up, good to see more people are interested as i just hear rice rice rice when i talk about it, need to save up some cash though, but if the cops do see us opening the full doors and we dont see them and get defected, we would have to put the standard doors back on which is gonna be a bitch to do because installation isnt so easy.. got any pictures of these bespoke Carbon fibre parts?

Some kits out there claim to be fully reversable. However they dont mention how easy/hard it is the reverse it.

These are hot off the production line as we speak. R33 GTST Series 2 Carbon Gear surrounds. Ignore the yellow bits around the Cigarette lighter aperture. That is residue polish. More interior parts to follow.

Any plans for any R32 parts Terry?

We have plans to do the whole interior for R32, R33, R34 and the New GTR when we get our hands on one. All models will be catered for included GTST, GTR and GTT.

If you do the whole interior and sits flush like the stock parts then im in for sure.

They are a direct copy of the original, as we send off the parts to the factory and take a mould from it. The gear surround as you see above is made from a fiberglass shell and then covered with genuine grade A carbon fibre. Then fade resistant laquer applied.

Any timeframe on when the whole interior for R32 Gts-t will be ready? Im not very patient lol

Hoping within the next couple of months, depends on interest really. Only had 15 views on ebay for the R33 GTST/GTR gear surrounds which is pretty poor.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
