I have been TTRYING REAALLLY HARD to get Josh (or someone) at JSAI to answer my calls and emails but to no avail.

I am not getting one from www.nismo.com.au because it will cost about $1200 plus delivery.

It's much easier if you give up now, buy a 33 or a 34, for which they do more awesome bonnets like the Z tune.

Or get a 32 GT-R bonnet, probably as light as carbon but isn't copbait.

carbon fibre < stock GTR bonnet

i was looking around for ages for carbon fibre ones, not many places sell them due to illegal and all, mostly they will try get u too buy fibreglass.

though i think Jeremy at Styled to Race can get in carbon fibre ones.

I believe its 94 brendan but dont quote me, it also has something to do with whether your car came with airbags. Best bet is to ring the pits if you really want one.

Rule of thumb is you can for 32's and some 33's but not 34s and late model 33s

If you get a FULL carbon fibre bonnet it may be lighter than a GTR bonnet but by how much? 1kg? For the 1000 you spend I just cant justify the difference.

Plus theres the whole copbait thing

Carbon fibre bonnet's are illegal in WA

Hey, not trying to stir things up, but I´m new in Australia and was just about to order a carbon fibre hood for my R33.

Why is it illegal?!?!

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
