After a five month wait on an insurance claim i finally have a new bonnet on my stag. I had to make a claim because i came across a very drunk person who thought my bonnet would make a good seat. It wasnt badly damaged but i wanted to make him pay my excess so he doesnt think its alright to go round jumping on peoples cars. I fitted a Blits bodykits fibreglass vented bonnet due to the lack of and price of steel bonnets (plus they look cool) :D . And i have to say the build and quality of the bonnet is excellent and required minimal work to get it on. The only damage to the bonnet was the 2 top corners of the bonnet from it being stood on its end in transport (which isnt too bad considering it had to go from QLD to TAS). So all in all a big thumbs up to Blits cos they build really good parts! :rofl:

:D lol at crazy dream. Something stronger than that i reckon.

hm.... ive been wanting that bonnet, now that i seen the vent . . .not to sure, looks kinds half assed design.

Definatly not half assed. Photos dont really do it justice. Its very hard to get the right angle for photos with a pearl car when your a bad photographer like me. The bracing of the bonnet and quality of the fibrerglass is excellent and its a fair bit lighter than the steel one.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      Dropped the car down to my mates shop on the 19th to get it on the dyno. Ran the motor in and dropped the running in oil and filter and filled it up with some engine oil.  Monday arvo I went down and we got a tune in her. Had a fun time trying to get it to hook up on the rollers. We end up having to roll into the throttle, reaching full throttle at around 6k. Made 23psi on gate then tapered off to 20psi up the top and spat out a healthy 700rwhp.  We had a slight voltage issue which was dropping ecu volts to around 11.8v so we called it quits and on Tuesday I went down and ran a couple of new power feeds to the ECU and DBW relays. Have yet to test it as we were trying to get things sent into the ECU from the TCU over CAN. We've now got oil temp, programme switch and gear position. Still working on gearbox speed, but have been told what to do so hopefully that will sort it. Once we've got speed working, we can start setting up the gear shift cuts and do some clutch adaptations in the TCU.  Should have the majority of it setup this week and go over the tune to see how it is now with the new power wire.  Was slack this time, didnt get any full runs as I was watching the TCU data on the laptop.

      Not until I googled it, now I remember lol. Seems like it's just to clean it up. But it doesn't stop the leak, I have a leak issue though? Thinking whether I need a new bottle, surely not lol.

      Ever seen a sock on a PS reservoir in a Jap video and wondered why?

      Does anyone have issues with their reservoir bottle leaking?? Mine I swear is always leaking from the cap, I realised there is no gasket, are they supposed to have one?
