its hard to see Dale cos its white and plain but once the bonnet is painted and glossy then it'll look really good.......

That is a sexy beast! Hmm bonnet upgrade one day maybe? Haha

[joshm35]

Looks the goods. Hmm gtr vents in bumper gives me a good idea for powersteering cooler.

Where did that bonnet come from? Modelled from a Dolphin or is it a Dolphin one?

yep its a freeway dolphin bonnet apparentely the first one thats popped up for sale in 4 years.

they dont make them anymore, so was lucky to pick it up second hand!!!

apparently when new they sold for $1600 but i'm hoping to make them for under $1200, going to speak to some mates but i'm thinking i need atleast 5-10 people who are keen to make it worth my while.

[Daleo]

Oh dear; might be time to work some overtime...

[pomnz]

couldnt be to hard LOL i'll sus it out aswell.

well after having a ball at Texi on Saturday my power steering is broken,

so its either I blew a pressure seal in the rack or the pump, its not leaking but it don't work.

at first I thought it was intermittent but now im pretty sure it doesn't work at all.

also a side note: maybe Alex would know, is the Series 1 and 2 power steering setups different seeing as the S2 came with a cooler? just wondering cos I would like to upgrade as I believe the S1 unit cant stand up to the abuse of full opposite lock drifting HAHA

[PN-Mad]

I'm pretty sure the pump is the same, except a (piss small) cooler was added in one of the lines. It sits right at the front in front of the A/C condensor.

Your not running a P/S cooler? If not, get a small PWR cooler, and plumb it in the return line. I think several guys should be able to let you know their set ups. I think a seal in the pump unit is the first to go.

[scotty nm35]

It's well known the pump will fail at the track without a cooler. Any small core will do, I am using a motorbike oil cooler but I have a spare small trans cooler here you could buy cheap if you want...

[WAGON_BOY]

I've already got the cooler that's not the problem

[scotty nm35]

Must be you dodgy Sydney drivers then.

[WAGON_BOY]

its called full lock drifting to much pressure/stress I would assume, I just wanted to know if the S2 pump or rack was different/better otherwise I will get mine rebuilt and modified so that this doesn't happen again if I decide to go drifting again.

like I said it wasn't leaking anywhere and I couldn't see it boiling in the reservoir and the cooler wasn't hot enough to burn my hand but that was after I felt it fail.

[WAGON_BOY]

not that many photo's have popped up yet, but here are a couple.

Wagon skids are awesome. Pity about the power steering.

[joshm35]

Did you use a spray can on the bonnet. Would look mad in 3m black or carbon vinyl wrap

yes I got the black off it and used a spray can so it wouldn't stand out as much to the police, but it'll be taken back off and finish being high filled and painted properly.

yeah it would look mad in black or carbon but I don't want it to stand out an pull unwanted attention

[joshm35]

Still best m35 bonnet in oz
