SOLD

As per the chiba_osaka_boy Group Buy.

Im dirty that i have to sell it as it looked great on the car. Problem is the bonnet fouls on my Whiteline strut brace and my custom intercooler pipes:( Thought about trimiing the inner skin/gusset to suit but would rather not go modifying it.

So asking $850 and pick up from near Liverpool in Sydney, best suited to GTRs but may also fit GTST depending on intercooler piping and strut brace, still in box/wrapping only trial fitted to the car for 15minutes.

Needs to be sold in the next week or two as i wont be in Sydney all that long and rather not burden family with babysitting the bonnet for me...

The Group Buy price was $850, only picked the bonnet up on Sunday night, i have waited since January to get it, stoked with how it looked on the car, just that the bonnet could not be closed, mainly because of my custom cooler piping, to a lesser extent strut brace:(:D:(

Get it in the back seat and still be able to drive the car with out and dramas.

I havent had a moment to chase it all up, between preparing for holidays, closing out two projects and tryign to sell my car and buy another...well havent had time.

As for weights...it weighs less then the steel GTST bonnet, but id say it woudl be line ball for weght with the alloy GTR bonnet, if anything it will be heavier. So forget weight savings with this bonnet, it wiould be more a styling and engine bay cooling thing, or if your current bonnet is a bit tatty.

Hey DJ984, you car is silver right? very interested in a trade then.:P

Geordie...about the best i can do is you drive to my place and we can fit it here in Sydney, what you do with your std bonnet i have no idea:)

Shrub, happy to send it interstate, but would only do it properly , meaning me gettinga crate made for it, and using a courier. Probably around $200 in total:( Wouldnt run the risk of shipping it unless it was protected by a crate because one of us could end up with a bitter taste in our mouth:(

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
