I'll be there. The missus has even said she'll come. Might give her a drive!

TurboX. I would like to completly redesign the BOV and PCV entry points, but as you can see in the picture of the duct that I removed, it's quite complex. As it is already, we will have to cut a section of the steel pipes from the PCV and BOV to make room for some Silicone hose to connect them. Currently, the hose fits into a moulded part of the rubb duct. We are going to change it from a Male/Female connection, to a Male/Male connection using silicone hose. Going to be interesting. The only other option it to completly butcher the steel pipes from the PCV and BOV and run them into a smooth T configuration and that T into the Ally duct on an angle pointing towards the Turbo. Difficult. I'm going to have make the Ally parts as close to stock as possible. But for those who ant to get fancy, I can make the ally parts without the BOV and PVC bits fitted and you can do what you desire with them. BASS OUT

Hey guys. Here are some pics of the pull down of my induction system to get the damn rubber pipe out. I had to remove Air Box, both intercooler pipes, turbo compressor outlet casting, BOV return pipe, PCV return pipe and of course the rubber duct. Once that was all out the way, I attached the pieces of steel pipe to the AFM and Turbo snout. Welded the bar in between and that's it. Took me about 1 and a half haours to pull it apart because all the hoses and pipes had never been removed and were pretty damn tight, ten minutes to do the welding and then an hour to put it all back together. And not one single bolt was left over!! Here are some pics. Pic 1. shows how much was pulled down Pic 2. shows the duct in position without the intercooler pipes Pic 3. shows the Duct itself Pic 4. shows the simple jig I made. I hope this is of interest for you all. BASS OUT

Cefiro. What model car have you got?

Cefiro. There will be two silcone sections on the hose. One at the turbo, one at the AFM. 10mm of air gap between them should allow sufficient flex. TurboX. Sorry I couldn't make it on Saturday, it took me a lot longer to pull my car apart and put it back together again!! I'll organise something this week.

Okay. Saturday Afternoon and I've performed the nessecary removing and refitting of the engine bay. Had to remove all the stock intercooler hoses from the turbo to the front of the car and from the front of the car to the throttle body inlet casting. Removed the compressor outlet ally casting and all bits. Took me about an hour to pull it down, and 5 minutes to do the welding! Once all rebuilt, all was well. I now have the jig for the R34. It's going to be hard to make the pipes as the BOV and PVC return pipes going to the rubber duct. So I'm going to have to get a bit creative! Anyhoo, I'll post pictures on Monday morning when I can be buggered! BASS OUT

GroundRun??? Hello? Does anybody know groundrun, and know where he is? I've got his guide sitting in my office.... BASS OUT

Wouldn't bother. Unless you are chasing obscene amounts of power where the 90mm Q45 infinity AFM's are too small, keep the AFM's and just buy the normal PowerFC. Why buck the system. Many more people can tune them with AFMs.

I'm devastated. I WANT JUICED

How does one do that?

Anyone want a AFM to TURBO duct? Check my sig.

No Stageas?

I've got heaps. What's on the cover?

He now owes me two favours......

I'm hoping to have the AFM to TURBO duct prototype finished by this cruise! In fact, it's my personal challenge.

I can't really see anything in that photo. What I'm going to do it basically fashion a scoop from the bottom of the guide, much like the one made with sheetmetal and rivets in one of the posts in the R34 GTT group buy thread. But insted of riveting it, I'm going to have it fabricated.

TurboX where is the city will you be? Where do you live?

Jager, Pm sent, Money Sent. Thanks again. Everyone...... Jager Rocks.

Ask him to send you a picture of him holding up the documents, with a sign saying "Imasca mar tistwho sho uldsuc kok" Tell him it's your mothers language and means "We will deal in great honesty and integrity" BASS OUT

Hey guys. Okay, this weekend I'm pulling my inlet system apart to start making the prototype Inlet Duct. I will be making up a mild steel Jig to which my fabricators will then make the aluminium ducts around. I'm borrowing an R33 rubber duct from Jager (thanks heaps man, I'm sure everyone one else appreciates you lending this to me also) to make sure it will be spot on too. If anybody knows of a rubber duct for an R32 lying around, I would love to borrow that too. Ya wanna know the method eh? Well, I'm going to refit my original Air Box to locate the AFM where it should be from the factory. The I'm going to remove the top off the standard airbox for room to move. Then I'm going to remove the original rubber duct to the Turbo and all pipes that go with it. I will cut some Mild Steel rings from sections of 3" pipe and place them at the outlet of the AFM and the inlet of the Turbo. I will most likely tape these into position. Once they are secured, I will get a section of, say, 25 x 5 flat bar, hold it between the two rings, make sure it touchs and tack weld the bar to the rings. Then I'll untape the rings, remove the little jig I have made and pat myself on the back. THEN, I'll get some more flat bar, much bigger this time, and weld the rings to this flat bar in the exact positions they are in. This jig will be made to stand upright on a fabrication bench so that making the pipes is easy. (Makes it take less time for the fabricatiors and therefore, cheaper prices can be had) I'll then cut off the piece of flat between the two rings and Bob's your uncle. Jig complete. I coat of paint will stop it from dirtying my car when I take it down to the fabricators. What I'll also do, just to get really fancy, is fit the rubber duct to this jig, and add some little stubs for where the PCV and BOV return pipes go. THEN, once that's done, I can simply trial fit a duct from any model of Skyline and Ceffy and Stag-eeee-ahhh see whether it will fit. This will be much easier than trial fitting the prototype duct to each of the RB engined cars. So, there you go, that's my project for the weekend. I'll take heaps of photos for everyone to have a look at. Remember, the more people we get the cheaper the price will be. Tell your friends. BASS OUT P.S. Now I'm only 5th on the list on Aussie wheels. I know all the top section is skylines, but I wanna be on top for a little bit. Help me out.

Yeah, I'm thinking that the standard pressure regulator can't handle the flow? But I have many reports that it shouldn't have any effect.

Question. Should the pressure rise when the pump changes voltages? BASS OUT TangO Working on it!

SK That's what I'm doing with mine too. Great minds think alike.

Old thread bump. Lot's of threads around at the moment about Cam gears.

On my R34 they did buff fu(k nothing. Cost me $600 in workshop and dyno time (At Hypertech) to find this out for all of you. Check out this thread. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...light=Cam+Gears
