I have an R33 GTS-T series 2 which currently has a HKS pod filter. I want to get rid of the pod and put in a factory airbox with high-flow filter and cold air intake.

Is there any CAI kits available for the R33? Does anyone know who sells them?

Any help would be appreciated. Cheers.

Easiest way (if you have a FMIC that uses the 'over the top' piping route):

Cut a 80mm hole in the airbox near the bottom.

Get piping that extends from the airbox hole to the hole left vacant by removal of the stock SMIC piping.

Extend piping so it takes in air from the front.

CAI completed.

I suppose the old cut a hole in the bottom of the airbox with a tube going to the front bar trick might work.

I was just wondering if there is like an over the radiator type CAI available, though they probably wouldn't fit with FMIC piping anyway.

There is another thread running which covers this topic. There is a guy who can make them out of pvc drain pipe too. that will look choice in your engine bay.

At the moment I have the standard cooler, but I will be going to a FMIC soon (probably one of the GKTech ones). I am getting a standard airbox, when everything goes in, I will have a look and see what I can do. I was just curious as to whether there was a CAI kit available aftermarket for the Skyline, if not, I will make my own up.

    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
    • Ah coolant overflow, previous discussions make way more sense now lol. 
    • ok. Yea, then I would need to remove the turbo and weld an adapter on to it instead, if I fuc* this one up.  
    • No. Only for a standard ECU with/without Nistune. Standalone has no need for it. That's like the 3rd time I've said so.   And as to that sensor linked - yes, it does look like it would be the right one. I've never bothered to see how available they were - just assumed that they'd be hard to find. I think I'd be planning to go Link ECU rather than buy sensors I don't actually want to make Nistune work, if I did not already have Nistune. As you do not already have Nistune, you should realy consider your options.
