Nissan Japan actually use the term 'rocker cover' aswell, it wasn't a bad translation. But having said that, Nissan also use 'cam cover' and at one stage have even been guilty of using - can you believe it - 'TAPPET COVER' to describe those long metal bits that go over the cams... when was the last time you heard that? I'm not sure I can even remember what tappets are lol :)

What the number for Nissan Japan then?

EDIT: becides, thats an english translation, who said Nissan Japan meant them to be called rocker covers?

In the Nissan FAST parts program they are called 'Rocker Covers' as well, and that is in the Japanese and English text.

For those who don't read Japanese this says 'Cylinder head and rocker cover'.

Sorry! Couldn't resist. :)

I should change topic to

"rocker cover" "cam cover" or "tappet coveR"

I think I'm going for the custom made one, the RB26 etching in the original part is too riced ><.

anyways someone made one of those a while ago with the plastic slightly frosted. anyone's got the dude's contact details

cheers guys

Yeah i know.

i spoke to the guy in charge just a couple of days ago. He says he cant find them and has a feeling the ex-employees may have took them when they left. The only thing he says he can do for me is look through the books to see who made them, and see if he can get more made. But there may be a minimum order..... So how about a group buy guys??????? That is if he can find who made them!

      I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps

      small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛

      Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
