Selling for only $500. I need this gone so I can buy one that fits.

The add I purchased this bonnet from had a link to the site it was purchased from. That link had the R32 GTR CF Bonnet not the GTS-T, however the original add just had R32 Nismo CF bonnet for sale.

Fark that's a hot arse bonnet too.

[Sinista32]

Wheighs about 4.5kg's.

The thing I like about this one is the full 2nd skin underneath.

It's not just a tacky sub frame stuck on with Silastic.

Dumbest question, but it certainly doesn't fit the 33 GTS-T does it?

LOL

[Dahtone Racing]

why exactly doesn't it fit your GTR?

[Trozzle]

after reading it a few times, I think he was under the impression it was a GT-R bonnet, when in fact it was a GTS-T bonnet.

[Sinista32]

why exactly doesn't it fit your GTR?

The bonnet catch bar is about 1inch short on length to line up to the latch.

When you move the bonnet forward to the latch, the holes at the rear bonnet dont line up with bonnet hinges on the GTR by about an inch.

When I put a (T1) CF GTR bonnet on my old black 32 gts-t I had to replace the latch and get the GTR grill.

LOL

I can be hopeful

Sale withdrawn until I find out what make/model this CF Bonnet fits.

This bonnet does not fit an R32 - GTS-t or GTR.

What is the legalities of having a carbonfibre bonnet?

[Sinista32]

Good point, I'm not certain J'son.

I am certian it will spark many points of view on safety/legalities.

I have taken my GTR over the pits at Dickson twice in the last 6 years and been passed both times without mention. The first time I got the "too loud too low" fail, but with extra tyre pressure and the exhaust swapped over a pass mark. It also passed in Qld with the CF (FPR) bonnet.

I got told when I rang up that it wasn't legal as they don't meet the ADR standards although if I could get an engineer to sign off on it then it "might" be ok.

My insurance company also wouldn't guarantee that I would be covered in an accident if someone got injured because of it.

I decided it wasn't worth the hassle.

[J'son]

Ta Kat. Always heard that they are not legal... and this as cool as they look, i aint worth it.

You can get fake carbon look ones, or at leas a film to coat them with though... If want the look, and not the performance enhancement....

Hey Richard - I am over that way later next week. If it fits my car its mine.
