2jz.jjk Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Hey guys , Was wondering what are the best quailty & price for a pair of bonnet dampers for JZA80? i found these, but i want something simialr to the picture ive attached. Brand names will help as i dont want to purchase somethings that gonna work for a few days or break down the track. Advice and personal experience on the bonnet dampers. will be highly appreciated. Can you purchase ones for another car and make your own brakets with the specified brackets? http://www.ebay.com/itm/310446864120?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/360566876303?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 thanks.

Drew_flux Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) the brackets on both of those kits look poor at the best. I remember somone on here making brackets and maybe a kit about 6 months ago. couldnt find the thread though. just make sure the hood bracket is attached to both bolts and the pivot spreads the load evenly across the bracket.
