Item: Heat Sheild for POD and uses factory snorkal, to suit R33 GTS-T

Location: Melbourne

Item Condition: Brand New

Reason for Selling: Already made myself one

Price and Payment Conditions: $120 includes regualr postage within australia

Contact Details: PM me and take it from there

I will supply the 6 pop rivets needed to put this together and 2 screws for the lid (plus a couple of spares). All that is needed it a pop rivet gun and a screw driver to fit this.

Also i will send instructions to make this easier, but its straight foward.

NOTE: i have put a sticker on my heat sheild, but i will not be supplying them.

Hi there is the heat shield which uses the factory snorkel still for sale??? If so im interested but want to know something. Do I need to drill in to the chassis of the car to install or it is like a full replacement of the factory airbox and you just screw it in to the factory position.

Sold my last one...can get more within the week if anyone still wants one.

as for the r33, it uses the factory snorkel.. and no this is no drilling required it uses the factory airbox screws, so its a total replacement to suit a pod filter

it doesnt fit a r32, as far as i know, but i've never seen an r32 engine bay

yeah their will be a gap if u dont have a snorkal, for me to make a new one up without a snorkal, means i have to make all new templates and measure it all up again, so im only making these ones.

they are the same price..the clear ones are sold out, ive got one left, which is pending payment, the rest are aliminium lids.

Does it make much of a sound difference to a stock GTST, ive herd by adding a pod u will her the turbo suck much louder, but the pods in a box so im askign from you personal experence does it make much of a sound difference.

And secondly does this mean if a cop pops the hood its rendered "legal" ???? cause the pod is boxed???

Thanks Michael

yup since its boxed, it is said to be legal..

You can still hear induction noise once its inclosed in the box..It will be even louder, once you finish your whole exhaust tho..

since this is a technically a box, it should be legal, ive never had an issue and the ones ive sold, ive never heard the msay they have had any issues.

once boxed it will be ever so slightly deeper in sound, but it mainly blocks of the heat and allows the pod to suck in cold clean air

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
