bought it off ebay

was a bit sceptical but liked the silver over black 1.

was thinking bout cuttin a whole in the top to put perspex in but scrapped that idea.

wat is the foam stuff your talking about? and ur saying to line the inside of the box yeh?

yeah its a thermal foam, has high density foam on the inside and silver foil on the outside, has massive R values so heat transfer is minimal Refer to my post here.

Esentialy you can get it at any foam supplier, can't remember the exact name, they come with glued backing if you want, i just glued mine on myself. It made another 6 degC differance to the car. mainly because as the car sits in trafic the air flow into the box is minimal, so it starts to heat up fast.

Just wondering how its working at the moment is the car running better. cause if its working good then yeah the foam will make it that little bit better :P go to clark rubber the material is called "isoboard" fridge companies use it so shows it works.

the box cost me 70 off ebay.

he makes them specifically for the r33. he has more in the making for other models.

if ppl are interested in the air box i might be able to organise a group buy through him and a cheaper price if we buy in bulk. take into account 70 is without the postage cost or that thermal foam.

pm me if ur interested and ill give you his email, if enough interest ill org a group buy.

cheers

at the moment the guy i bought mine off only has a pre set 1 for the r33. i know he is in the midst of making them for other models.

they are coming soon.

you can let him know your interested by emailing him : [email protected]

the coming models that he'll be fabricating airboxes for are:

R32 Skyline, R34 Skyline, S13/180SX & S14 200SX

as well as HSV & Subaru

cheers

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
