hey everyone, just need to check with all the jumbuck drivers out there with
towbars. does the wiring for the trailer lights need to be spliced into the loom
or is there already a plug under the tray that will just need an extension piece
added to it for the 7 pin plug. thanks guys. oh and also the socket in the tray
just behind the rear cab window, what on earth is that for!!

Hi Guys.
In a further attempt,now the bonnet vents are finished,To reduce radiant engine
bay temps,I have decided to loose some BLING,and wrap my intercooler piping in
some black 600 degree exhaust wrap,as the piping was still getting so hot you
couldn't hold your hand on them,after driving around in these 40 degree days.
Here is what it looks like now,not as pretty but hopefully wont get anywhere
near as hot as it was.

They were pricey at the time ben,but all the ones I have seen aftermarket don't look as good IMO the smooth factory ones look good. Out of interest price one now?they may be a lot cheaper now. It will be interesting to see how you make one.

You can get them from blue's Utes,there are some links in the link folder I posted years ago when I was looking at covers,But I think the factory ones look the best,

Subject:: Bonnet Vent Rain Covers Made
vk2kyg

Send Email Send Email
 
Hi Guys
I have made the rain covers for my bonnet vents,out of 1.6mm aluminium
plate.There very light yet strong enough not to bend.This is what I came up
with.The under side has 2 strips of sponge rubber that sits on the carbon vent
so as not to scratch the paint.
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=Raincovermade.jpg]
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=Undersideofraincover.jpg]
I then had to come up with a way to hold them on and would be easy and quick to
fit. I had two minds here,1 to bolt to the mesh,or 2 to bolt the the stainless
grill underneath the mesh. I made 2 sets of tabs, 1 from aluminium on the left
of the pic and 1 set from stainless with the intent of spot welding them to the
under grill.Here's how the aluminium tabs turned out.
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=bolttabs.jpg]
I trialed fitted the bolt tabs in some spare mesh like this.
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=aluminiumbolttab1-1.jpg]
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=trialfitinmesh-1.jpg]
Then fitted them into the bonnet vents
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=tabfittedinbonnetventmesh.jpg]
Here you can see how the holding bolt screws into the tab
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=boltscrewedintotab.jpg]
Here's how the bolt and holding tab looks from the underside.
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=underbonnetviewofboltandtab.jpg]
And with the stainless grill fitted underneath
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=installationfinishedunderbonnet.jpg]
Here I have covered the covers with carbon fiber look film.Installation
finished.
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=raincoverfitted.jpg]
Here's a view of both covers fitted and finished. They are quick and easy to
fit,I timed myself and it took 15 seconds to fit one with an allen key.But I
will make some knurled finger grip ends for the bolt and do away with the allen
key.
[url=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=raincoversfitted.jpg]
Let me know what you think guys?

Hi Guys
Well after looking into air vents for years and driving around in some really
hot days the engine temps crept up 15 degree C on hot days. So after looking at
hundreds of vent styles and getting measurements from the suppliers and making
paper templates I have found none really fit the proton bonnet without having to
cut the bonnet bracing for them to recess in,so I have decided to stick with the
first ones I had on the car and just cut the slots out. Here's how it turned
out.
First I marked the slots through the vent stuck on the bonnet.
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=bonnetvent.jpg]
Then I have removed the vent and started to cut out the slots.
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=cuttingslots.jpg]
Cutting out the slots with an air pencil engraver with a small cutoff wheel.
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\

All slots cut here ready to remove.

All pieces removed here,you can see the sheet covering the engine to catch all
the filings.
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=slotsallcutout.jpg]
Here's the under bonnet view with the heat mat all cut away.
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=rhsslotscut.jpg]
Here I have dressed up all the edges smooth and primed the slots.
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\

Top side color painted
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\

Underside color painted
[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=undersidecolorpainted.jpg]
All paint clear coated here. I used a 3 stage masking process here,as each coat
went on,one layer of masking tape was removed,exposing 1mm of original bonnet
again for the next coat of paint.This limits the steps in the paint when you
remove the masking tape each time.
You get 3 small steps, instead of a large step in the paint. All these steps in
the coats of paint are contained under the vent so you don't see anything when
complete.All this does is reduce labor time not having to wait for each coat to
dry and then sand. Its all hidden under the vent when it's glued on.

[URL=http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x34/vk2kyg/Bonnet%20Vent%20Installation/\
?action=view&current=bonnetventinstallationfinished.jpg]
Tomorrow I will make some rain covers to sit over the vents to stop the water in
those heavy downpour's.
It's been an interesting project this,to get the vents sitting in the right
place so if any water that does get in drops down between the timing cover and
engine mount on the passenger side,and drops onto the stainless air box cover
which will then run off the side of that straight to the ground. I didn't have
to cut any bonnet bracing,and in the future I could take the carbon vents off
altogether and repaint the bonnet leaving some neat slots in the skin.

There is more then kings out there for front... kings aint the best.. there is pedders lovells.. then you could get front coil overs
 
the rears.. you could get the kings but as said they are shit... resetting the leafs is your best bet or better yet.. but will cost you more then resetting i reckon ive got a rear axle that has been modified for sale, but the only thing it is missing it the mount for the torsion bar other then that you can use the factory springs and bolt in the alxe and instant low... no need to remove the springs

Hi Tony
kings front springs, reset proton leafs in rear.
I don't know if there is any other brands for the leafs,just the kings are shit.
Stay away from king leaf springs,there absolutely crap,they sag to the bump stops and smash them off,and king springs wont help you,I have been thru that.
You also have to be careful how much you lower the rear.There isn't a lot to play with to stay legal.When I lowered mine to the same height as the front kings,it looked good,but when it came time to engineer it,I had to raise it up 30mm at the rear to be legal,so be careful on the height at the rear.
Regards Neil

hi neil, i used a gps for the readings.with the tyre size i have gti rims on my
jumbuck and my speedo is accurate . i would say the speedo would be a little out
not much +3 to 5kph, due to the standard jumbuck wheel being taller. with the
tacho i used another jumbuck to compare rpm reading

Hi all,
just some info.
siemens gti clusters will work on your jumbuck (4g15) with no problems, as long as you are running 205/45/16. tacho and kms are spot on.
i'm running this setup at the moment. I do have plans to drop a 4g92 mivec in that i have. so figures crossed the tacho will still work otherwise i will have to find a mitso gti/m21 cluster.

Hahaha That's funny coz I had partly tried the passenger side,and thought it was ok,but I never tried the drivers side. So I guess with a GTi box fitted you need a GTi drivers side shaft and a jumbuck shaft on the passenger side,well that's still good info to know.Thanks.

Hi mitchell
Yeah a 93P will have plenty of power compared to the 4G15P,But no you still need to change your gearbox. The jumbuck box wont clear the 93P or T flywheel/clutch setup it's a lot bigger than the jumbuck one.

Hi all,
just some info.
siemens gti clusters will work on your jumbuck (4g15) with no problems, as long
as you are running 205/45/16. tacho and kms are spot on.
i'm running this setup at the moment. I do have plans to drop a 4g92 mivec in
that i have. so figures crossed the tacho will still work otherwise i will have
to find a mitso gti/m21 cluster.

I not 100% sure but i reckon the 93p will bolt upto the 4g15 box.. as the flywheel isnt raised like the gsr ones.. but as i said im not sure.. but you do get a gti/m21 box you will need the shafts too cos the jumbuck shafts wont fit into the box... as ive had a 93p in my buck before and i need the same shafts that i got the box from..
 
But with a 93P in there you will have fun i did lol
 
And the diff will be ready to go from the weekend on.. just found out my diff will arrive tomora.. awd here i come :P

Hi mitchell
Yeah a 93P will have plenty of power compared to the 4G15P,But no you still need to change your gearbox. The jumbuck box wont clear the 93P or T flywheel/clutch setup it's a lot bigger than the jumbuck one.

thanks for the info, i would be doing all the work myself so thats not a big thing, but after hearing all the stuff you have to do just to get a Turbo Engine, it would be fkn awsome but if i just do a 93p conversion (no turbo) will i still need to change the gearbox, also a 93p will have plenty of power compared to the 4g15 but will it keep up with a standard 6 or will it still be outclassed..

That's good to hear benny,Take plenty of pics for us mate wont ya? AWD woohoo..

What was the difference with the shafts benny I have had GTi,GSR,and Jumbuck shafts here all side by side on the bench,and there all the same length.I didn't notice any difference in the diameters of any of them,but thinking about it now I don't remember checking if the number of splines were different. So what was difference from the jumbuck to GTi shafts???

I not 100% sure but i reckon the 93p will bolt upto the 4g15 box.. as the flywheel isnt raised like the gsr ones.. but as i said im not sure.. but you do get a gti/m21 box you will need the shafts too cos the jumbuck shafts wont fit into the box... as ive had a 93p in my buck before and i need the same shafts that i got the box from..

Hi mitchell
Yeah a 93P will have plenty of power compared to the 4G15P,But no you still need to change your gearbox. The jumbuck box wont clear the 93P or T flywheel/clutch setup it's a lot bigger than the jumbuck one.
Regards Neil

thanks for the info, i would be doing all the work myself so thats not a big thing, but after hearing all the stuff you have to do just to get a Turbo Engine, it would be fkn awsome but if i just do a 93p conversion (no turbo) will i still need to change the gearbox, also a 93p will have plenty of power compared to the 4g15 but will it keep up with a standard 6 or will it still be outclassed.

> A 93T block has oil squirters which jets oil up under the piston to cool them down,The 93P blocks do not have these,which is why it is never a good idea to turbo a N/A engine.Turbo engines are set a little different to suit. And don't forget if you find a 93T engine you must get the ecu and engine loom to suit that motor. Also the jumbuck gearbox will not fit a 93T engine,nor are they strong enough to suit a turbo power,so you will need to change the gearbox for one from a GTi or M21 coupe if you stay FWD,but history tells me many of these gearboxes don't last very long either. If you find an AWD gsr gearbox you need to convert it to FWD about $300 to do this,and you have to change the chassis K-Frame to a gsr one to suit the AWD box. Everything depends on your budget? And don't forget once you change engines,you will have to get an emissions test done and have it engineered,but your state laws may differ from NSW. I can't tell you the best way to go,coz
