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?!?!

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
