Hey guys and girls just wanted opinions, wanted to put a sunroof in my car as the bonnet flipped up a couple years ago and damaged the roof. Got a 4 door sunroof roof cut so thought it would look the part, its a maroon r33 ill post some pics of the roof. Now is it worth it or should i just not bother. The current roof on my car is pretty warped and flexes with the bass from the sub thanks.

Bass flex will still happen unless you use a dynamat for roofs !! It makes it cooler too

i hate my sunroof it takes 30 mm out of non existant headroom and most of the time it too bright to open most of the time , ,I had mine dark tinted and black suede on the roof which looks odd at first inside but much nicer them crap grey

They say the tint will shatter the glass from excess heat , ive had it on for 5 years no issues and my past rx7 glass roof for 11 years never shattered from the heat retention and cools the inside a tad

If your ok on headroom and a quality body shop can do it safely it might be the go? The switch curcuit is a simple one

ill ask them if they can install dyna mat, is it that much, less head room than the non sunroof.

i will definatly be getting a darker lining looks much nicer and doesnt get as dirty cheers troy.

On my r34 the book shows 30mm less headroom

And i can confirm that ( my head is flat on top now haha)

Best of luck its a love /hate relationship

Its great on night runs on nice nights or to vent farts lol

The dynamat is the bonnet foam type not tar based kind

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
