Ive searched but nthing useful came up.

Ive decided to go gtr bonnet instead of a gtr front bar... I know this converstion invovles a couple of mucking around.

What else is needed if i already have the bonnet, how hard is it and etc..

Oh and what would a good condition GTR bonnet worth. Can i use exsisting hinges and stuffs?

Thanks for the help

Its the bonnet catch assembly. So the lock and the and the (please excuse me, i dont know the correct name for it) but its what th lock ttatches too as wel. Have a look, you'll know what I mean by "L" shaped reo. Its the the thing the horns and lock attatch too.

Yes. Hinges are the same.

GTR bonnets usually for for arround $400 but shop around and you can find cheaper.

The bonnet lock and reo are around $75.. again.. shop arround.

They are very light bonnets. I think I weighed both GTST and GTR and off the top of my head its about 10kg and a heap less understeer

yea i know that L shape thing,

this place i found is selling the bonnet, latch and L thing for like $650. that a good price?

ive looked around and i cant find anything thats close to $400 unless its damaged in some sort.

might consider a FRP or carbonF. one but they seems to be hard to get locally

by fitting a gtr bonnet to a gtst, can we use a gtr air diversion plate on the gtst?

They should fit..

L.B. - You will need

A GTR Bonnet

A GTR Latch with Lock ( i have an extra one for sale if your notable to find 1 )

A GTR Grill ( i have an extra one for sale if your notable to find 1 )

my set up cost me round $850 fitted without paint, but you get a way lighter bonnet.

Hope this help

8kg's I believe, so light I'm afraid mine is going to blow away when it gets windy and I've got the bonnet up :D

P.S. I'm not running a GTR latch..

GTS4WD - Did you actually notice less understear or you just joking round lol....?

Im not running a GTR latch with mine either. GTS latch and hinges and lock. I just unbolted the bottom screw on the lock and pushed it backwards a bit and downwards. Heaps cheaper and easier and looks just as good if you do it well. And yeah i agree fit a grill too!

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
