Hmm I dunno, they look like the Just Jap ones from the picture, but you may be right. I thought the HKS Kansai covers all had "GTR" embossed into them. I looked into the carbon ones a bit when I put my 26 covers but then ended up just painting them. We'll see what the OP says.

Hi Guys

Just a quick update, have just purchased a carbon fibre bonnet of Mu Secret, i am happy with the quality of it considering the price and installed it with New Aerocatch Bonnet Pins (What a pain in the arse they are to put in).

Parts to come soon, next couple of months:

-New AP Racing Front rotors 370mmx36mm...Shit they are expensive $$$ :P

-New Tires either Kuhmo KU36 or Federal 595 RSR, either 265's or 275's

-Slowly gonna start tricking out the interior, Bride Seats, New Nardi or Works Bell Steering wheel + Lots of Carbon Trimming.

Heres some bonnet pics:

Yeah i agree, the bottom hole has to be bigger the the top hole, so you can reach in there and put the nyloc nuts on from underneath, plus you wouldn't want to measure it incorrectly otherwise your up shit creek :P!!!

Some updated pics with the new bonnet, more upgrades coming very soon, can't figure out what to buy next, have my new/used RB30 bottom end sitting in the corner waiting for a rainy day.

hey mate the build looks great,

just a quick question where did you get the carbon bits for the front bar from? (not the lip) the fin thingys and also the carbon that goes around the indicators? any info would be great :thumbsup:

have you thought about smoking those indicators or getting smoked ones? i recon they would look sweet

Yeah Leigh i got most of my stuff from www.rhdjapan.com and www.nengun.com .... the is stuff real expensive now days i bought most of this stuff when it was 100-105 yen to the AUD, also i thought about smoked indicators but the rest of mine are clear so i just made them match.

Which canards are they? I want some of those bad boys :thumbsup:

That ARC airbox looks sweet as well but im sure it costs a arm and a leg

theyre not too much more than some pods

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
