Hi Penny

i too am in the market for an Injen intake i think they are pretty good sound great and look the part too

I am currently in contact with JDMYARD in sydney who are the Official Distributors of Injen here in NSW.

If they are going to charge way too much i will order it from the USA if the AUD will go up a little will be even better

i have a stillen Z-tube. highly recommended as its a perfect 100% fit and sounds great

don't expect any performance gain however with ANY intake otherwise you are kidding yourself. there is quite a sound difference at wide-open throttle however

i will be selling my intake shortly if you want to hold off for a few weeks

the injen kit looks great but i have heard that the fitment isn't so good

Still no idea as they havent gotten back to me.... not happy!!

I hate it when places say "i will get back to you" because they never do!

I don't think any place has ever "gotten back to me". I've always had to call back.

Just keep calling them - you'll get info eventually.

stillen z-tube is basically just a smooth pipe that connects the back ofthe AFM to the front of hte throttle body, thus eliminating the baffle and large resonator type device that slows down airflow on our car

the high-flow part is basically a pod and airbox that replaces the standard airbox. i simply replaced the standard filter with a K&N panel filter to achieve the same net result

basically any form of intake sounds great when WOT but the difference is not noticable at any other throttle position. get the cheapest kit you can that fits well.

i got mine from www.stillen.com but you can also get it from www.everythingg35.com and probably a few other places

I fitted a Z-tube to mine last weekend with the factory airbox and K&N panel filter as well. Apart from the more aggresive rev note around 3-4k rpm, I think there was a slightly noticeable increase in performance as well...but maybe thats just my ass dyno at work ;)

Hey guys,

If anyone here has decided to change their airbox and are looking to unload their OE "power" Airbox (the open one with the foam surrounds), I would be interested in taking it off your hands.

(don't see any in the For Sale section)

Just make your own. Costs less than $20. Cheaper than buying it from Nissan and just as effective. :P

Yeah, I saw the pics you posted a while ago in the other thread, it looks great....

Have you managed to fill the gap on the lower front of the box?

Yes, I used a piece of foam and glued it in the gap at the front. It is attached to a piece of L shaped extruded plastic that I cat groves in the end so it slides down the front edge of the air box and will not fall out. It sits just under the front composite cross member.

I folded the rubber seal on the bonnet back so it would allow air to flow and not block it off. I used a piece of wire in the end of the rubber and then bent it so it stays to the side. (just in case I ever want to out it back to stock)

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
