I like the carbon air box Mark, is it a custom job or did you buy it from somewhere.

I must get something similar b4 the hot weather really sets in.......no point having pods with a HAI, I reckon the stock panel filter with a CAI setup would be better in the middle of summer.

Just a quickie

RB25 and RB20 turbo share the same sort of inlet yes? ie if I was to get an alloy intake pipe for an RB20 turbo, would it fit the 25 one no dramas?

Wanna get the shitbox fluttering its tits off for some cheap laughs :)

Time for a bash through the hills then. ;)

ya know im always down for a hillzy with a dale but the bald tires and shot suspension have me sketching... once its all done u'll be the first a call for a decent cruise.. always happy to whatch the big blue flames come out the back of ya beast!

hey pete! the carbon box is a just jap item i bought through the forums... saddest thing is i had to cut alot away for my old plumbing setup now i have heaps of gaps... you have to seal all the underside of the pipes reguardless, to creat the full box that protect from hot air. still in the middle of making bottom section up.

al in all i think the modded stock panel+box is the go. i was looking for one before i got the piping... now i cant do it but if the mines 34 has stock airbox u should too :)

On that note, has anyone had any success with these, it drives me nuts trying to set it up.

They have all the basic sorta principle, all have the same features you need to change, only thing is yours is a bit fancier than the rest and may have some other safety features.

Got quoted about around $780 for the 100,000km service on the stag, but not including a new water pump. Apparently it doesnt need to be done until it starts leaking?! Reckon this is fair or who knows where we can get it done cheaper??

Hey Ryan&sez, By all means choose who you feel comfortable working on your car, however, if your not happy with the price you have to pay for a 3 hour job on your car then i'll do it I've done about 10 or so for forum members and try to keep it fair for both you and I. I use all Genuine parts (your choice obviously) I've seen some water pump's leak at 40,000km and some water pumps that will never leak so it's not a good indication of when to change it. Because if your going to change the water pump you might as well do your timing belt aswell.

Oil (your choice)

Oil Filter (genuine)

Timing Belt (genuine)

Water Pump (genuine pumps are expensive and generic one's are pretty good at half the price)

Coolant (genuine)

Tentioner and pulley (usually dont show any wear at all and are fair expensive to change every 100 thou)

Drive belts ( powersteer, air con, alternator)

PM me for more info on prices etc.

well we just witnessed ben blow the rest of his cat out tonight... a few gunshots and flames...
lol, it was sort of like a fireworks display coming out the back of the wagon :)
haha , that scared the shit out of me , big cloud of black smoke then bang bang bang ;)

MY first words... "you killed it!!" haha

they were some pretty big flames... hehe

it lit up the freeway pretty good!

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
