loooove te bonnet!!

as you mentioned it fibreglass with carbon fibre on top of it....

where is it from... would be nice to get one and instead of drawing to much cop attention have it painted same colour as the car.. would look schweet!

the carbon fibre look does look nice aswell though!

is there somewhere where we can get some more pics plus prices?

The carbon bonnets are from a guy who is sellin them on the forum. They are a pre order but this buy has finished. Heres a link for pics and prices

I dont think that I will paint the bonnet as my car is gun metal grey and it shouldnt stand out too much. If anything it may look like a miscmatched colour from a distance.

the bonnet would look great on the 33, even though it won't stand out a crapload on the gunmetal.

the GT wing i'm not too sure, i've seen 33GTS-Ts with straight flat design GT wings and they look great, however i think that curvy one u posted might not work well with the already curvy rounded design of the 33.

however, it's what you think, and would go great with the bonnet :(

i think carbon bonnets and gt wings look mad! (obviously, check out my gallery :P)

as someone else mentioned, not sure about the curves on a 33? would have to see it first. the only unbfortunate thing is the gun metal grey wont highlight the carbon much, but still cool.

As far as "practicality" of the bits and pieces....well....who here bought a skyline to be practical? Theres always going to be the "sleeper" style modifiers that bags the "looks" style modifiers, best to have both the "looks" and "power" to back it up :(, the wallet doesnt always agree though!

it's your car, my theory is that if every time you walk back to you car and you think to yourself "yeah i'm still proud to own my car" than who cares what anyone else thinks

my 2 cents

:(

i like wings. just decent ones on decent cars, not the boeing wings on eclipses such as on laugh at rice. but the lack of a wing makes the back look low and fat, especially r32s. how i like it :aroused: carbon wings look awesome with a carbon bonnet. my 2 cents..

Heres some pics of my car with the GT wing just sitting on the boot.

Bear in mind the S1 spoiler is still attached(anyone know how to remove them??) and the GT wing would sit approximately 5-10cm further back than in the pics.

Does anyone know where to get CF bootlids for R33??

:)

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
