Carbon Fibre Bonnet & Bucket Seats

[SkyPat]

Hi everyone,

I am recently looking for a carbon fibre bonnet and a decent bucket seat (probably Sparco Evo or Pro2000) for my R33 series I skyline.

Got any ideas where I could buy it cheap?

1 place that has fibreglass with carbon fibre layer on top bonnets is unique autosports and they sell for around $1100 but they are in QLD so shipping with sting you also.

I have been trying to source them cheaper from the bodykit manufacturer in know but no luck yet.

cyber century in footscray got the carbon fibre bonnets for $600-800 for r33 series 1 & 2.

what about the cyber century in springvale??

for $800 i wonder if there is actually any real carbon fibre on there and not just that stick on shit

[WLD747]

yeh i think springvale got it to. Ive seen these as they do not look dodgy. It looks the real deal.

They aint true carbon fibre.

It'll be either:

a) a compisite of fibreglass and carbon fibre layer

B) same as "a" with more fibreglass

no chance they will be full carbon fibre, your talking $$$ for one retail pricing

Im guessing option "b"

Sydney actually, check them at www.nismo.com.au for prices/contacts etc.

Yes i know a 100% dry carbon one is around 4g.

Thanks dude.. for your information.

yeah i know it's hard to find a cheap real carbon fibre bonnet at Melbourne, surprised me that no many shops sell them as there are so many skyline fans around.

I definitely need one as I want to reduce the weight in the front part. My brake disc is finally overheated on Sunday at Calder Park after several track day. So today I put on a pair of DBA 4000 series 6 by 6 rotors. I also need a good racing pads... any good suggestions...??

Thanks for the replies guys!!!

Check your PM...cant help you out with a bonnet other then suggest get a GTR one and cut out all the gussets on the underside

Fine for track and lighter, and can run your legal std one on the street... drain your windscreen washer bottle for the extra 2kg weight saving

As for the seat, i have a spare new Velo (see my sig)... or can get my hands on a carbon/kevlar seat if your after one, they aint cheap though
