Up for sale I have a brand new NISMO carbon fiber bonnet for an R32 skyline, still in brand new condition.

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.

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.

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.

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.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
