who is going to be the donar bonnet for the r34 group ? after i get that sorted i will pm all that is interested for the r34 fibreglass bonnet.

Im in sydney btw :yes:

Edited by whyte

i'm interested but dont really want to shell out cash up front for a bonnet of unknown quality. I've seen some great glass bonnets and some really shithouse ones. Is there any way i can see a sample of this work? I'm in sydney also.

Ummmm.... I think we are waiting for someone to donate a vented bonnet for a R32. I can see that there is interest but I think it’s a no go if we don't have a bonnet to copy.

that is correct.

whoever donates the bonnet can have 2 bonnets to compensate for it. 1 to put on and 1 to sell or keep as spare :O

i am gathering pics of other bonnets made by the same company as we speak ;)

hello, im back again with pics

he has another shipment coming in a few weeks so when that lands ill have even MORE photos of the bonnets that came in :O

but for now, just gotta do with whats available.

Questions:

1) Is there any guarantee on the quality of these fibreglass bonnets? (thinking about donating stock bonnet for a good cause)

2) How long will it take from donation to receipt of first bonnet? (thinking about donating stock bonnet for a good cause)?

3) Does the donator get installation too? :D

Fark I'm a picky bastard~

installation you can do yourself stan. ahaha

allow 2-3 months (might be a bit longer due to transit time, customs, waiting periods etc)

i will be showing off the 180sx bonnet on my car when it lands so then you can all see the quality :D

ali-turko, if you read my initial post, it stated how long it will take to be completed and you wait until all this time to say you're out cause its too long? i presume you didnt read the post at all mate.

for your information its $550 for a bonnet @ carmate. if you can get it for $500 then go get it mate. no need to ruin it for others.

gday, highly interested for r32-t

when do u think these will be ready and when do u need the money by?

also which design are we sticking with for the r32?

Please PM me thanx mate

    • Another thought on this OLD topic: When you paint your bonnet lip, leave a small unpainted back lip/line along the back of the lip, where it rests on the bumper. That way, the line in the back is much more prominent than the gaps in the front/under the lip - and it breaks the hood-to-bumper connection at the "correct" place, when comparing to a GTR. I'm gonna do this with mine this week, so stay tuned for pics!
    • So I'm in the final stages of assembling my single turbo RB30/26 and had a question regarding MAP reference points.  I've seen several recommendations such as tapping the cylinder 2/3 ITB, tapping the intake manifold at cylinder 2/3, or using a point on IAC. First two are doable but require permanently modify part and the third is "out" as I plan to delete the IAC.  All that to say my question is can I used the "bleeder" in the center of the ballance tube as a MAP Reference? I'm running a catch can so I don't need it for the PCV system. My thought process is it "pulls" from all 6 cylinder, and it's between the ITB and the cylinders making it ideal for MAP reference according to what I can find. Thoughts?
    • Some sense has prevailed! What kind of idiot spends money on intake, heads, and cams for a N/A motor in 2025? Lol. What maroons. Source:I am King Maroon.
    • So, cams are not getting installed......yet  Had a good chat with MX5 Mania about intakes, they recommend not to get ITB's, they recommend a plenum style for the NC So, one of these puppies is being ordered, with a larger TB to suit, when it arrives from the US the car will go in for the cams and intake I'm also getting a fancy rear box bit for the air filter box which will suit the new TB size
    • Clamp meter is pointless. Unless you're trying to keep average current under a set value for some weird reason (maybe you undersized your wiring?), then you'll get no useful info. What you're really trying to target is the flow of fuel coming back to the tank. You want some, but not a lot. You also want to make sure fuel pressure remains stable.   So, fuel pressure gauge, and fuel flow gauge. Set it up from that.
