I have been TTRYING REAALLLY HARD to get Josh (or someone) at JSAI to answer my calls and emails but to no avail.

I am not getting one from www.nismo.com.au because it will cost about $1200 plus delivery.

It's much easier if you give up now, buy a 33 or a 34, for which they do more awesome bonnets like the Z tune.

Or get a 32 GT-R bonnet, probably as light as carbon but isn't copbait.

carbon fibre < stock GTR bonnet

i was looking around for ages for carbon fibre ones, not many places sell them due to illegal and all, mostly they will try get u too buy fibreglass.

though i think Jeremy at Styled to Race can get in carbon fibre ones.

I believe its 94 brendan but dont quote me, it also has something to do with whether your car came with airbags. Best bet is to ring the pits if you really want one.

Rule of thumb is you can for 32's and some 33's but not 34s and late model 33s

If you get a FULL carbon fibre bonnet it may be lighter than a GTR bonnet but by how much? 1kg? For the 1000 you spend I just cant justify the difference.

Plus theres the whole copbait thing

Carbon fibre bonnet's are illegal in WA

Hey, not trying to stir things up, but I´m new in Australia and was just about to order a carbon fibre hood for my R33.

Why is it illegal?!?!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
