my supra is going bye bye in the next week which will open me up to some cash, finally. yay. time to mod the 32 some more.

first up will be a set of gtr cams and adj cam gears as well as some new rotors and pads, and i'll be looking at buying a hood and spoiler to finish off the looks.

more than likely i will get a vented cf over fibreglass bonnet from uas or carmate. and i will probably paint the hood to red to match.

wondering what peoples opinions were about cf on red. does anyone have any examples as i can't seem to find any when searching around. i know cf on white looks the goods and blends well with black, but im unsure about red.

ON my wine red r33 i would love to put a Carbon Fibre bonnet on but i just don't htink it looks as nice... as mentioned cf looks good with white to stand out and goes well with black (near same colour) but from the examples i have seen it just doesn't do it for me.

What does tickle my fancy is though the bonnets i have seen on r34 gtrs eg bonnet with just one big inverted scoop down the middle.... anyone have any pics of these? and know where to source them.. just a bonnet with the 1 big scoop...

coco 69 i think any model wine red skyline will look mad with this bonnet on..... now if someone can find some pics on a 32 or 33...

silver gts-t, yeah if i paint over it, might as well just go full fibreglass instead of the mixed as it will be cheaper...

25gtt, the one i had in mind has the large middle scoop as well as a few other side ones, looks a little crowded but should look good...

managed to find this pic, looks quite sexy here

i was thinking about rezz's car which has many black components, how come his looks so great. but i figured it was because he has quite a lot of black matching parts such as wheels, aero mirrors, lip and boot spoiler. hmmm....

edit: just found this picture on my comp, wonder if it belongs to a member here. anyway, i think it looks quite tough... r33 colour is similar slightly less metallic i find but a similar tone.

edit: oops here...

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
