quick question regarding R33 - AERO STYLE bonnets....

So the idea of having the vents is to let hot air out but whats the go if it rains and keeping moisture out?? Is it important to keep water out of the engine bay?

I have CAI box and this should prevent water from being sucked into my pod but will water getting into my bay affect anything else??

Thnx.

as you can see from the design, the vent is angled so that it is hard for rainwater to go in...

anyhow, even now with ur standard bonnets, rainwater will always go in... i dont think rainwaters droplets will do any harm to your car. it is different story if u pour a bucket of water over the engine when it is still hot though... just my 2cents

hi im keen on getting a AERO STYLE bonnet, just want to make sure you could get one that would fit onto a GTST R32???

They look like they're made for GTR's, so they'd still fit but, are missing the front lip bit. You'd need an OEM or after market grill to put in the gap.

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Yes, I had ordered the spherical bushings at the same time as the rest. I have high hopes for the anti squat reduction kit.

      Make sure you use the spherical bushes** on the lower arms, ifyou do that. ** at least, if not the whole replacement lower arm.

      R32 only blows hot air

      The tap for coolant flow control will be stuck open. It's not just the air door motor that dies.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
