Hi All,

My beautiful black R33 skyline had hail the size of baseballs rain down on her on Tuesday. Im absolutely devistated!!!

Im fully insured but its estimated at $8,400 to fix. Maybe i can source some parts myself to get the costs down and prevent my car from possibly being written off.

So now im after a new carbon fibre bonnet and a flat boot lid. Also, i wouldnt mind a price on a very good condition roof.

Im a little undecided about the bootlid but am considering it as i think it will be hard to source the lip i have on it currently as it is from japan.

Ive just been looking on the net and finding it difficult to locate resonably priced carbon firbe bonnets and flat boot lids. One website i found to be stupidly high priced!

Was hoping some people on SAU could help me out or point me in the right direction.

Please pm me or email to: [email protected]

Thanks,

Liz

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
