Hello SAU members. I'm a newbie I guess, but only in relation to the present car. I've been a member as MYR331 and TR33GT before. The membership was with the last two R33 GTST's I've owned and modified.

I wanted to let people know (if you know already, thats great) that my son and I constructed an air intake box for our new car, and R34 GTT. The box was made for a grand total of $40.

I will be posting a few pictures of the thing here shortly (when its finished) but so far, it looks bloody good, and functions a treat.

The intake box was made out of a piece of $20, 2mm thick polished aluminum sheet (scrap piece). It was cut using a cardboard template made to measure to suit the installation. The box was trial fitted a few times, and filed / cut and adjusted accordingly. It is mounted over the HKS Super Induction pod filter upstream of the airflow meter, to two existing standard mounting points with 5mm high tensile steel bolts incorporating vibration mounts ($5 incl). The top was cut from the same scrap sheet, and is bolted to two outer "L" shaped brackets, again with dual high tensile bolts, which are easily removed to gain access to the filter and water reservoir.

It took my son and I one full day to make the template, cut and shape all parts, trial fit (5 times), and permanently mount.

It is being removed, painted, and vinyled up this weekend, and will attach the pics in the next post.

I just wanted to let people know how easy this is, and how good it can look in a decent engine bay, for $40. (our labour not included of course)

Regards. Jim (TR34GT)

LOL Hey Mic,

I only noticed the McCarrol ute about a dozen times on my way home last night.

Yep, the cars triptronic, and I do drive it as such.

Its been through a decent few years of modification until this time.

The finishing touches are only weeks away.

Catch you on the Pacific Highway, or at the next cruise.

Regards

not sure.. i havent installed it yet. picking up this weekend from a mate in newcastle. im hoping it doesnt affect the airbox.

I hope it's not affected.

I installed an HKS Superflow filter when the HKS FMI went in, and it is bloody noisy in the cabin.

This is the main reason why my son and I are installing the 2mm thick aluminium induction box.

The vortex noise "shooshing" is annoying sometimes.

Anyway......catch you on the street, and good luck with the install.

ps..........the 2000 model GTT is a shitload better than the 1998 model from what owners tell me. Good buy!

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
