ive noticed that on gt-r's the vspec's dont have these 'speed holes'.. but normal gt-r's do... i would have thought it would be the other way around if anything:)

same deal with 33's... havent looked at 34's though, probably the same.

hhmmm "speeeeed holes hey"???

Speed Holes.. how funny is that..

I thought the 2 holes were called N1 bumper inserts.

Isn't there an N1 version in all the GTR's

or did they just do that in the R34 and all the other GTR owners saw them and thought "sweet" I'll take 2 of those there speeeed holes..

I'm going home to take to my bonnet with a axe... I'm a get me some of them there speeed holes..

GTST there was an n1 in all models of the gtr, boo5t the cars you see that arent n1 with this they have been fitted later or the front bar has been replaced thats probs why you see more run of the mill R's with them these cars are more likely to have a new front bar.

officially they are called N1 front bar slots. i wouldn't mind getting those as a later addition to my car... they arent too much either. UAS quotes $100 for the fibreglass ones for an R32, which is cheap.... oh and of course fitting, dunno how much for that though... hehehe speed holes... from the simpsons! :)

from my understanding, R33 Series 3 GTR's have these in the bars as standard, of course N1 GTR's have them as well

Series 1 and Series 2 R33 GTR's don't have them (unless they are aftermarket / add on)

not sure on R32's or R34's.. but yeah they flow a little more air into the top of the intercooler,

i guess they may even increase flow into oil coolers as well depending on where they are fitted, but it is probably too low down for that..

Yeah on the r32 gtr they are from the N1 kit. Ive got em for my GTst which has original GTR bar, theyr bout 350 each side from nissan, but fortuantely I got em original for 250 together. They go with the N1 lip on the bonnet, N1 rear pod on side skirt, and the lip on the boot lid under the spoiler.

Mainly purley a look thing

Regards

Will

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
