ok Guys just thought i would post somethings on what pete smith and i did to my motor vehicle.. thats right we put a cold air intake on it...

basically made it from PVC piping.. when teh car is started you can actually feel the intake sucking in the air..this is with a stock airbox, with a no name air filter...

as you can see in this pic a hole has been cut in teh bottom of the airbox and with 90mm has been joined and flows down through the metal. which was cut to fit.

and this is from the front, the intake next to the fog light.. since this pic, i have flared the end of the pipe, its done just with a lighter heating it.. so it flezes very nice, and then just use anything to hold it for a minute or 2 and bingo.. i will make it fit better when i get the front bar off to fit the mesh, to protect from anything getting in there.... i will have another pic soon when the mesh is on

my bro-inlaw is getting his brother to make me a stainless steal one that goes from where it needs to be connected on the engine, right down to the bottom of my front bar (i have a 400r replica bar so near the bottom is a meshed spot where air is just taken in nicely)

| hype ^ | I'm following this path with my R33 at the moment but am using a GTR intake instead of the stock one , it flows about 2 to 3 times as much air. I've diced the standard air box all together and am using a pod filter and fitting the intake into the top of the new cold air box which is basicly a partition to close it off from the engine bay and a lid which the intake fits into. You get quite a lot of air in around the headlight too and a ram tube down to the front bar is not needed..... at least not until you get up around 600 700Kwts. I'll post a couple of pics in this thread tomorrow of the cardboard one i'm using at the moment. Also I'm using an EMS computer so have diced the air flow meter as well.

Tropo: thanks for that, but still not what I'm looking for. That is a cold air box for a pod filter, I wanted to make a cold air feed for the standard air box.

Meggala: I had a look on your site, but couldn't find anything... Anyhow, its a easier for the R32, b/c the air passes from bottom to top, so you could easily cut a hole in the bottom section to put another pipe in. The R33 is top to bottom, and there isn't much room on the airbox lid to slap another pipe in...

Thanks anyway guys :)

GTST: Did you manage to find the link, or was it the same as the link that troppo posted?

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
