AZN25T Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 Yup, there's a number of threads on CF bonnets, but no matter how many there are there's never any info on where to get a Z-tune styled one Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172557-carbon-bonnets-for-r33s/#findComment-3177118 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nismo_God Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Siddr20.....how much did it cost? if u know.... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172557-carbon-bonnets-for-r33s/#findComment-3178828 Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcent Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 looks nice, im lookin at gettin one soon. how much did the sting you for that? cost me $2000. its only 2 layers of carbon an weighed between 6-7kg. Stock bonnet = 25kg approx fibreglass bonnet = 18kg approx Jap made carbon bonnet = 15kg approx (there fibreglass bonnets with 1 layer of carbon put on the top side) GTR alloy bonnets are close in weight to the Jap carbon ones, but....dont fit gts-t's (well the 33 ones dont anyway) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172557-carbon-bonnets-for-r33s/#findComment-3179218 Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddr20 Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 um cost him 1k max from just jap.. Not to sure if they make them for series 2 tho.. This was series 1.5 i believe.. Series 2 are a little different. Best carbon bonnet i have seen is either east bear stuff.. I remember yonks ago, there was a guy from interstate that made it himself for this 33 gtr.. Maybe search for that thread!! Heres a few pics of carbon bonnets: Not exactly sure if they are real or just fibreglass.. But just some pics for you!! and i got lots more.. but cbf lol.. Check out topstage.. he sells nice bonnets!! But i wouldnt bother with one to be honest, unless its a plan design, without the huge whole in the middle. Water and other crap will get on top of your engine!!! not good !!
