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:

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
