Hey guys,

Anyone know anywhere to get a decent carbonfiber bonnet for an R34 GTT?

I've had a JustJap one, the bonnet latch didn't reach even after adjusting the catch/release clip by making the bolt holes bigger and raising it up. Welded a longer latch on, still eventually blew up smashed my windshield and ofcourse destoryed the bonnet. Shit happens ;) Also once fitted you needed to remove the stock strutbar as the vents sit lower and bow the bonnet.

But I'm after a new one since my stock bonnet has a couple of holes in it from the previous owner. I've found a couple on Ebay, none of sellers have got back to me and I'm scared of fitment buying one off Ebay.

So any websites, or private sellers on here that people have used with no problems would be a great help.

Cheers, Zac

Not sure if the GT-R and GT-t bonnets are interchangeable. You might be able to find second hand on Yahoo, or perhaps you can buy them new. Try contacting Jesse Streeter.

Know where/how I can get in contact with him?

^ that actually looks pretty good, has what looks like the support structure on the underside.

There should be a few manufacturers still making ER34 bonnets (East Bear, maybe Top Secret?) or find someone who has them in stock. Sorry man I'm not much of a help, just trying to point you in the right directions.

Search for "jesse streeter" using your web search engine of choice.

GTR and GTT bonnets arent a direct swap. Need to swap over hood latch and hinge iirc. Plus you'd still have a gap between the headlights. For all that effort, might as well for a GTR front conversion.

Otherwise, GTR style hoods made for GTT is the way to go.

thats where I got the bonnet in my avatar. perfect fit, only had to modify the windscreen washer holes.

Did it fit without hitting the strutbar? That's the style I bought from JustJap and thats one of the problems I had with it

Thank you everyone for your help also!

dont forget to fit bonnet pins, i did mine with aerocatch flush ones for added security

Yeah I have a set off bonnet pins for justjap already, don't want to risk it again ;)

Thanks for all your help guys, awaiting a reply from seibon now for postage quotes :)

I've never seen plugs for them, Although I like the idea! I like taking the try off but it was always a pain when it rained because you have to screw it back on ;)

Just sticking plugs in the vents with the bonnet closed would be decent

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • 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!
