Modifying A Factory Bonnet

[GTR-N1]

Having a vent that doesnt vent? Watch out for the 'rice' police. You know who you are.

My 2000 GTR has been modified to accept a NACA Duct insert to simulate the V-Spec II as I didn't want to pay for CF which weighs only a few grams lighter (than aluminium) and costs $6900 for OEM and $1000 from Car Mate for the type you're after.

The NACA Duct is functional and only cost me $48 + GST + post from Qld. The Venturi system in physics helps to draw air in to help cool the turbos (high or low).

Obviously Nissan thinks they're worthwhile because they're on the R35 aren't they.

I've been out in the rain and there's no water problem. People can't tell the difference between mine and the V-Spec II. Look up www.kenlowe.com.au and click on Aerodynamics and of the two NACA Ducts available, you might consider buying the smaller of the two. Since you're in Sydney you can have a look at mine in the Blue Mtns and score a bit of SAAS black mesh for free.

If the NACA Duct is inserted from underneath and moulded together with the bonnet, it all looks as one piece and there is no cutting away any reinforcement!!!

Yes Respray is $450 to $550

Check out pics of the R34 GTR V-Spec II which are as scarce as hens teeth. It was a car that was manufactured 09/00 on a small run.
