I put some money into some shares a month or so ago. Just before it crashed....LOL

I like going into spec shares which is a gamble anyway. Fun none the less

its doing ok again now though next crash tip in some more :thumbsup:

Time to fix hail damaged bonnet on the 33...what do wasteland?

- carbon fiber bonnet (rest of car is silver) ~$800

- fill/prime, respray and hope for a good colour match (front bar really needs a respray too) ~$300

- buy second hand bonnet with no dents and respray (as above) ~$400

- paintless dent removal (existing paint is in good condition) ~$11ty

Money not an issue, I'll go with the CF if it looks good...I do like flush colours though. Do series 2 R33 bonnets fit a 1.5?

no s2 dont fit and fk no to cf bonnet ricer boy.

10k as is sit now or I'm assuming minus all goodies?

id like more but likely as it sits

Only issue with finding a silver bonnet and putting that on is that a good deal of my car has been resprayed a couple of times so I don't think the standard silver will match well, assuming the bonnet I find has perfectly good paint on it. I'd rather spend a few hundred on trying to match it / refreshing the paint. That and I could be waiting forever if it's a series 1 bonnet that I need. But a good suggestion nonetheless.

CF doesn't look too bad on this GTR...

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
