I put some money into some shares a month or so ago. Just before it crashed....LOL

I like going into spec shares which is a gamble anyway. Fun none the less

its doing ok again now though next crash tip in some more :thumbsup:

Time to fix hail damaged bonnet on the 33...what do wasteland?

- carbon fiber bonnet (rest of car is silver) ~$800

- fill/prime, respray and hope for a good colour match (front bar really needs a respray too) ~$300

- buy second hand bonnet with no dents and respray (as above) ~$400

- paintless dent removal (existing paint is in good condition) ~$11ty

Money not an issue, I'll go with the CF if it looks good...I do like flush colours though. Do series 2 R33 bonnets fit a 1.5?

no s2 dont fit and fk no to cf bonnet ricer boy.

10k as is sit now or I'm assuming minus all goodies?

id like more but likely as it sits

Only issue with finding a silver bonnet and putting that on is that a good deal of my car has been resprayed a couple of times so I don't think the standard silver will match well, assuming the bonnet I find has perfectly good paint on it. I'd rather spend a few hundred on trying to match it / refreshing the paint. That and I could be waiting forever if it's a series 1 bonnet that I need. But a good suggestion nonetheless.

CF doesn't look too bad on this GTR...

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
