Anyone know where I can get a fibreglass copy of the Z-Tune style bonnet for a R34 GTT from? Apart from carmate?

I don't have carbon fibre because im going paint it anyway, so no point of having carbon.

Cheers

The one you have is East Bear isn't it? That's only got one vent.

If you do have others, can you please pm me with price posted to Melbourne?

Cheers

Lol, I wouldn't have a clue about carmate, but it seems like they are the only option for fibreglass.

As JSAI, Japwarehouse etc etc, buys em from SEIBON (overseas) or something and I think they are about $950 posted, but that's in carbon fibre.

And it just seems like a waste if you paint over a full carbon fibre bonnet.

Maybe I'll keep on sourcing, and maybe could get like a mini group buy happening?

I'll of course try and look for something that's actually in Australia.

Yea well i have exactly the same plan as you, im also planning on buying a Z tune bonnet and painting over it, so doesnt matter if its CF or not.. And carmate is only 600 bucks delivered...

And carmate has the one's to fit up to GTT hinges and latch and it looks like the Z tune GTR bonnet

Yeah I know, but I've heard mixed feedbacks about carmate lol :)

But I've just spoke to a supplier, he said he will help me find out where else he could source a fibreglass one and I told him a few people might be interested and he was cool with doing a group buy with a little discount, so I'll keep yo'll updated :P

Oh damn...can you post or pm me where you got it from and price?

Also post up pics when you get it installed, not sure whether to go down that route yet as haven't been able to find any decent pics to really convince me :bunny:

Yeah no worries at all. The kits are made by Josh from JSAI, but I'm getting it through a distributor in VIC, called Jap Warehouse. Mu Secret is another distributor in another state.

If you go to JapWarehouse, just say Charles from SAU sent you, he will try and look after you.

Here's a pic of the kit:

I've also asked about the bonnet, I got a price for 2 bonnets, $630ea picked up. Which normally are $695ea.

Carmate does it for $650 posted.

But my supplier did say if we get 10, there would be a bigger discount, so I'm just waiting to see how much it will be for each if there's an order of 10.

Yeah those are the pics i found on the net too, its just that the kit looks a bit awkward in the pics..

But who knows when you install on your car it might look awesome and tempt me to do it too! :bunny:

Ok, I just spoke to Carmate, the dude reckons if we order 10 Z-Tune style bonnets, we can get 10% off the price ($559) which will be about $505ea plus delivery ($60-80). Would anyone be interested?

When you mean awkward, do you mean the grill part?

Because the grill part is made just like a stock GTT bumper, and the GTR bumper is totally different, because of different bonnet (which allows a bonnet lip), maybe that's why it looks awkward :bunny:

Yeah that’s part of it :)

But also might be just be the front bar looks a little 'big' for the car. Though maybe the kit just looks a bit big for the car because of the stock wheels. So might look a lot tougher with bigger and wider wheels to fill the guards :bunny:

Once you but the kit on your car Charles and if I have the money... ill look into getting it :)

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
