What's that triangular thing on the bonnet of the Skyline? Would I be right in thinking that it's got rather more power than it left the factory with?

Cool

Yep, triangular bonnet vent denotes carbon fibre bonnet, fitted as standard to the Vspec II. Of course others have upgraded the bonnets on earlier cars too.

This is a fairly popular bonnet.



What do you think?

While we're talking nice cars, I've found this baby in japan... looks fantastic IMHO

Sammy,

Try here for a start www.goo-net.com kinda like autotrader in Japan. Do you read Japanese

If not you'll need a translator like Babel Fish, which helps matters, but there is still some guess work involved

This is a direct link to the translated search page Not sure if it'll work, but its worth a quick click and will save a bit of hunting if it works.

Cool

Aero = Bodykit
reforming = modified

I'm not a big fan of R32's, but I think this looks great


It is a 'reforming' model which amusingly features an 'air chestnut'
