I would like to put on a Nismo Z-tune style GT-R bonnet on a GT-T.

Already getting the East Bear front, but don't like the look of their bonnet.

What would I need to do this?

Hinges, locking mechanism, front wings?

im sure there are several threads covering what you would need to fit a gtr bonnet to a gtt, do a search, and you should get a more definitive answer.

im pretty sure that its just the hinges, mechanisms to keep the bonnet down/bonnet release, and the obvious gtr styled front bar or gtt bar with a top mole.

Yes Rush is right, there are a few threads covering this.

Here is the part numbers you will need to order from Nissan Japan ( order via Local Nissan Dealer and they will import) You will also need to pay for the parts up front before your dealer will order them most of the time.

I will also list the prices but dont quote me ,the price may have increased slightly since i purchased mine.

Nissan GTR OEM Part numbers

65400-AA400 - Hinge Assembly - RH - $81 Australian

65401-AA400 - Hinge Assembly - LH - $84 Australian

62550-AA400 - Stay - Hood Lock - $88 Australian

65601-AA400 - Male Assembly Hood Lock - $100 Australian

It will probably be easier to use a GTT front bar with a Nose attachment rather than going all out to modify a GTR bonnet ( i went all out, very expensive and long time - need much patience) If you choose to go a GTR bar and not modify it then you will need to change the guards which will also mean bigger rims to fill the space or spacers which i wouldn't recommend.

All the best with this.

David.

Sorry for not using the search function (usually the first to tell others they have to :P strange :P )

I'm going for the East Bear Spec 2 kit from Knight-Racer, but as stated I want a different bonnet.

The GTR bar from KR will fit the GTT wings.

NZMO thank you for the part numbers.

Is the locking mechanism easy to change or do you have to drill holes in the framework to fit the GTR lock?

And the GTR bonnet is just as width and has the same front line (where the headlights are mounted) as the GTT bonnet?

As far as i know that bonnet is exactly like the gtr, meaning the front of the bonnet doesnt fold down like the gtt. So it would be exactly like putting the east bear bonnet on, but...ztune lol.

If thats what your talking about.

Josh's ( JSAI ) their Z-Tune Bonnets for the GTT actually do fold down over the nose.

hey NZMO, are they impul side skirts?

yes they sure are, im not sure what ill be doing in the coming months with them as im going for GTR rear guards(which means ill also have to change my rear bar to a GTR bar to line up - hence my signature wanted to buy ) and Z-Tune front guards being GTR fitment i dont think ill be able to keep these skirts as ill have to go either Z-tune skirts and modify them not sure as yet.

For the locking mechanism there is not to much involved and as for the bonnet it does line up with the guards line and head lights.

Good luck with your project, i know its not going to be cheap.

Nice kit too , my front Bar is Top Secret GTR.

cheers,

David.

      Borg Warner EFR Series Turbo's V 2.0

      By Borci88 · Posted

      Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging.

      Infiniti Q60 Navigation Update

      By Chocolate Cheesecake. · Posted

      I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Luckily I didn't put in etch primer as I just found out it's not compatible with my body filler lol. Also just need to sand the panel anywhere between 150-400 grit so I'm in the clear there. It does say to not apply to soft old paint, I assume that means paint that is flaking, peeling,etc
