<-----ive got this one, the previous owner said he got it from unique auto sports, its got the big centre vent and the 2 smaller vents either side, one ontop of the turbo (which after abit of a hard drive, vents ALOT of hot air out) and another on the other side

suits me fine coz it came with the car hehehe

Sounds like the same CF bonnet i'm looking for, something more on the plain side.

+1 id also be interested in a simple bonnet, with maybe 1 or 2 subtle vents. maybe if anyone knows a custom place we could get a group buy going

I wish we could design a carbon bonnet that suits everyone :D

We can always get a carbon bonnet made that suits your style however there must be a minimum order of around 10.

Sounds like a group buy what do you think boys? I'm keen let's get the numbers!! :rofl:

im in pending the design.

all i really want is something that will allow through ventilation. so some sort of reverse facing vents mid way up the bonnet. im not to fussed about the final design as long as its not flashy or attention drawing.

We have just received stock of these S2 bonnets. We trial fitted it onto our demo car and it fits very well and makes the front look very aggressive, no to mention providing extra cooling, especially over the top of your ignition system where it is needed most.

I think in all the excitement we forgot to take a picture before we took it off :(

Carbon $749, FRP $499

Comes with all the required mounting hardware too. Bolt threads are fibreglassed in and line up perfectly with the factory bonnet hinge.

Now obviously these aren't ADR approved? (not that i really care)

Would you have to use bonnet pins with it or is the part where the lock mechanism goes pretty tuff?

Also with the carbon fibre one, is it carbon fibre on the inside of it aswell?

Sorry for all the questions but this is probably one of only a handful of bonnets that i have seen that i actually like for the series II.

No these are not ADR approved, I have been trying to speak to someone about what is required for ADR approval but am yet to find anyone that can give me a clear answer or the right person to speak to. Can anyone help me here?

The bonnet catch area is strengthened however, pins are always a good idea. If you do want pins, my preference would be to get AeroCatch.

These do have a FRP skeleton with a Carbon top layer. We can certainly make you one that is made totally from carbon fibre, although expect to pay a LOT more.

I'm more than happy to answer your questions.

PSI do you have any bonnets for series 1 GTR 33

Not at this stage, there just hasn't been enough interest thus far.

Can you please though it back on the demo car for a picture please and about how high do those vents stick up?

And the bonnet pins you refered to are they flush mounted, do they have extra locks the ones I've seen are flush and have locks in each bonnet

pin oh how much for the bonnet pins too?

Just noticed your in melbourne any chance I could pop round and check it out for myself?

Edited by The BOP

Yes the bonnet pins I were talking about are flush fitting and have an optional lock, unfortunately we don't sell them though

Here's a pic:

I'll see what I can do about a picture on our demo car for you. Please PM me about pick-up.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
