Hello,

Currently searching for a VspecII bonnet, if you have one please let me know.

Not fussed on colour as i know these are hard to come by, and probably near impossible to find in yellow so will be requiring a respray anyways.

May consider a non vspecII bonnent for the right price and modify it to look like one.

Let me know, PM or call/txt 0435 721 814

Cheers,

Anthony

Yea just make a hole to suit, would leave the process up to the panel beater guys to do what they think is best.

All i know is that it has been done before and works...

interesting to know how you could modify a standard bonnet to put the triangle? can you grind a hole? or oxy or something?

Peter at Bodyform was fascinated at the job done on this bonnet.

He looked at it for at least a minute and asked, "How on earth did he (the panelbeater) fit plastic against metal and for no expansion cracks to form?"

Underneath, there was a thin film of temperature-stable adhesive placed between the flanges of the NACA Duct and the aluminium.

It also turned out that the triangular hole did not interfere with the reinforcement ribbing underneath either.

Great job as always by Nepean Valley Smash Repairs.

Thanks for the extra detail Terry, I'm also considering Japanese copies of vsii bonnets, but not sure if they are any good or not...

I've got the added cost of painting whatever bonnet I get as there is a very slim chance of finding one in yellow.

Hi Mate

I have a genuine V-Spec II hood in stock at the moment in white, it has small damage on the passenger side edge (easy repair seeing as you're respraying to suit your car) and the price won't be too hideous. Drop me a msg if keen and I'll shoot you through some pics of the damage :)

Cheers

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
