G'day,

Since I have no luck in finding stock airbox for R32 RB20DET to replace the pod fitler (without having to wait 10 days for nissan to get 1 from japan).

My friend suggested RB30 airbox thinking it would fit in R32, my question is, would RB30 airbox fit on R32? Or other airbox that would bolt on as well?

The reason I'm asking is, the 32 i'm buying has FMIC and oil based Pod fitler, in Victoria it's a no-no.

Cheers

Grant

Not too sure about whether a RB30 air box would fit a R32, but have you tried looking in the For Sale section? Or maybe try your local wreckers. They should store some. If no luck there, post up a WTB thread in the WTB section.

G'day,

Unfortunately, there is none available for sale at the moment, I asked all wreckers around melb, they said they're out of stock (one wrecker told me EPA is the main reason! I'm not surprised).

Nothing at for sale section at the moment, might have to ask Nissan to get me 1 (whole airbox assembly for $241 something 10 days delivery for anyone who would like to know.)

Anyone know of another airbox that would fit in R32? A R33 airbox with air intake?

Cheers

Grant

Hey man

RB30 air box is completely differnt, there is no hope that it will fit into an R32.

They are the same/similar to a VN - VS Holden air box.

I have also been looking for an R32 RB20DET air box, but no luck yet.

Keep trying :yes:

Thanks,

Abu

G'day,

Thanks for the confirmation will tell my friend he is wrong.

The fitlers are the same as R32 right(pretty sure i've read fitler compitablity on some thread here)?

How much have you been quoted for complete assembly, I've been quoted around $220 and should i gave up and go to my local nissan dealer, i'd be paying $241- for complete airbox assembly delivered from japan (10 days wait), I might go to other dealer and compare prices.

Also best of luck in finding 1 mate.

Cheers

Grant :D

    • 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 👌
