<-----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?

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.

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch

      It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
