carbon fibre


Recommended Posts

seriously, ide much rather perfer a carbon fibre one. its a fiar bit lighter, they are able to withstand alot of shock, ive seen them drop wheels form about 6foot and land on the bonnet, it jsut bounces back into place.

for me to get my bonnet repsrayed i would be looking at alteast 900 for ontop and underneath. and thats the price of a carbon bonnet. when you buy them then dont need to be painted, they come with a clear coat so its all ready to bolt on.

hhmm....your sprayer must have a mansion. I was quoted $450 top and bottom - and Carbon fibre bonnet for $1500...Green-Ghost was talking about looking good, in that case, I'd save the $1050 and go get some neons, and maybe fit a PS2 into the car ...

never understood the flashing club and show car boys.

its just like body kits, people put them on for looks, i doubt very much there are many of you that have put a body kit on ur street driven line to improve aerodynamics or lighten ur car, a carbon bonnet is next on my list. but the one with fiberglass underneath, 3 k is a bit pricey.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
