The vent hole MUST be in the first 3rd of the bonnet to extract hot air, the way air moves under the bonnet is kinda weird and if you place the vent near the rear it will do next to nothing. Just don't put it above the battery, plugs or air filter.

Idealy it should be just behind the radiator, most of the good vents actually go down behind the radiator to help draw the air out.

Yeah that vent is in the right place, as the air passes over the top of the vent then it causes a slight vacuum and drags the hot air through the vent.

The people who make the Series 2 bonnet are also planning on releasing a Series 1 version, give them a call and see when it will be ready.

See'ya:burnout:

Yep best thing to do if you like the carbon look is to give the bonnet a light rub down and apply some 2 pac clear over the upper side otherwise you could paint it the same colour as your car! ( have read some where that they don't like the sun too much because the shiny side is just a thin layer of gel coat (polished) so best to protect the bonnet before fitting)

MEGA

p.s R32 bonnets need a GTR bonnet catch to fit GTS-t,GTS-4,GTS!

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
