I don't think the Dyno will be a big problem with simple mods.. Cars are listed at the fly so any dyno'ing they do will read at least 15kw lower than the stock figure.

But blanket bans suck. There will be alot more falcodore drivers (holden and ford = monopoly on p plate market thanks to the new rules... conspiracy) learning there skills in VN's and XT's.. awesome..

Will probably be alot more P Platers who couldn't give a rats about there cars too, knowing that their current bomb is there only to fill the gap between 18 and 21 when they can legally drive something decent

...a more valid comparison would be something along the lines of...

"which would you rather be standing in front of, in the hands of someone with little experience.... a bb gun, or an M16?"

All vehicles have the potential to be lethal weapons

You completely contradict yourself.

A bb gun is not lethal. An M16 is.

An Excel is lethal. A GTR is lethal.

It is not a good comparision.

A better one would have been an automatic vs. semi automatic rifle. Both deadly if used in such a way. But one worse.

Dyno'ing is USELESS!!

it's a tuning tool not a power measurement tool.

surely something like a cop sponsored dyno figure wouldn't be worth jack in court? (unless it's something stupid like 300rwkw's)

every car has different drive train loss, every dyno is different, different days yield different results, blah blah blah...

pathetic

I didn't contradict myself, you just proved the point I was trying to make.

People have the attitude that a bb gun can't hurt/kill anyone because it's low powered.

I assure you, they can kill, and have killed humans on many many occasions.

      yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.

      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... 😛
