bonnets 100% carbon fibre (no fibreglass underlay like JAP versions), its only 6mm thick an weighs around 6-7kg. I got it from customcarbon.com.au, great bunch of guys an awsome quality work!! highly recomend them!!

Are you sure about this? Coz a 100% dry carbon bonnet costs around $5000 and you can pick it up with 1 hand and walk around with it.

i believe its carbon top layer, carbon bottom, with thin foam between? not sure on their particular carbon making process? You can pick it up an walk around with it in one hand....I did, before putting it on, as I (an the guys that made it) said, it only weighs 6-7kg. Never said it was "dry" carbon though becuase it's not.

but yeah.....its light, its CARBON FIBRE....best stuff known to man:D, its different, and I love it.

any further questions about the bonnet, ask the guys at customcarbon, they'll know a great deal more about it than me :D

:)

any suggestions on my wing delema?

to avoid further confusion about the bonnet i changed the '100%' to 'Genuine' in the post, guess thats more "technically" correct. Sorry guys, My bad.

Abcent.

If you are going to pull it off, I'd love to borrow it.

I would need to know the measurement between the holes that go though the boot though.

If they matched up with mine, cool.

I think I may be able to just remove my wing and check it out from that though.

hehehe.....hey lucas. maybe I should make it into a rear seat like on the old T-Buckets....scweeet :bananaman

reckon I'm just goin to get another bootlid and drift/stealth spoiler first....fit it up.....then decide which one to sell? the GT or the drift?

BUT..... all of this wont be happening for a while, gotta get my bigger squirters in Jan, which kinda wounds the wallet for a little while :D

there really is nothing "different" that looks any good out there unfortunatly.

Very nice indeed, car looks similar style to mine...looks great, skirts suit your rear bar much better than my veilside one, the veilside rear was just a bit too round for em i think.

pic of my ride are in my gallery if you havent already checked.

white, dark wheels, gt wing...(universal description of our cars:D)

;), ive tried to update my pic, but it wont let me.

:thumbsup:

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
