ok well let me put it this way - I rang Ben and he said "keep the standard bar as it's better for the oil cooler" (Mick had a genuine Nismo bar sitting there ready to put on but the boss said no)

LOL

LOL, like i said, i dont know how applicable/practical the theory is to Skylines....but it has to have some substance as you see it on cars running coolers up front...almsot all the GT2 cars etc etc

The Z Tune actually runs twin front oil coolers. The rear coolers are diff and trans coolers.

The bonnet itself is actually from Unique Autosports in NSW. I've had it for a while - same people that did Jacks R33 one. But the stuff from JSAI while it wasn't 100% perfect (took a little bit of fiddling to get it to fit bang on) was overall pretty damn impressive for the price of it all. I genuinely have no drama's at all with the quality of it and whilst Josh can be hard to deal with at times I'd put up with it again if he ever had something else I wanted to get as I wouldn't hesitate getting stuff from him again.

Nice andrew, how long before the paint has its dose of Sponsor stickers? :)

Haha - less than 2 weeks. My 1st rally is on Jan 31st in Tassie. The car is being entered as a 2005 Nismo GT-R Z Tune (hence why I've done the kit).

Looks ace, is this the same kit as Aaron has on his? Really finishes the car off and the best colour for a 34 IMO, good work :)

Na Aaron has the top secret side skirts and bonnet and the Nismo front bar.

looks nuts dude.

question why not do the skirts in black to match the lip and more Z Tune like??? but looks hot either way

wanna sell me you stock GTR bonnet??? lol

cant believe such a hot car is only a race car :( (or is it road registered as well???)

cant wait to see this in flesh at deca or next track day.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
