im writing down all the names of those interested as i cant edit my first post and you will all get PM's regarding this. im still waiting for the manufacturer to confirm if he needs payment upfront to get these made or not so will have a definite answer hopefully within the next couple of days.

satanic ill see if we can get a blank side done as well.

as for fitment with standard cooler you may need to trim a little on the side to allow the return pipe to fit in but its best if we try it out on a stock car. can someone with a stock GTT and GTST in Melbourne SE suburbs pm me so we can try it on to see if it fits?

sorry guys jumped the gun and forgot about those with stock piping.

You're married?

Yep, for about a year now :P Hence why i've been curbing my spending on the 34 lately.

Sweet, thanks for checking mate.

Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-T and R34 GT-T Brand New Cold Air Box Cover which is designed to house Pod Filters.

This assists to reduce power loss caused by the sucking in of hot air from the turbo.

The box is made of ABS plastic, and features allen key bolts and nut inserts.

$50.00 each

Some adjustments may be required when fitting, depending on your intercooler and setup.

Pictures are example pictures of a R33 Series 1 1993 Skyline with the Cold Air Box Cover fitted and R34 GT-T. All piping are the same the only difference between the two models is the catch can behind the headlights are different so around that area its not a flush fit in a 34 but is not noticeable. (as shown in pic)

The example skyline R33 is set up with a Hybrid front mount intercooler and APEXI pod filter.

The cover will definitely fit the GTS-T without many adjustments as it did for me,

but I am not sure how well it suits with other models. (adjustments may be required)

The example R34 is also set up with a Hybrid Front mount cooler with a Drift pod filter.

As tested the cover will fit a 34 GT-T but you may require some adjustments depending on cooler size

You are welcome to view the item and pick up in south-east Melbourne, or postage at buyers expense.

You may pm me or post here if you require further detail.

How this will work is we will need at least a minimum of 15 confirmed numbers to get these made, and either a deposit or full payment of the item may be required as I do not have the funds to get a huge number of these made up at once but this will be confirmed within the next day or so.

PICS WILL BE POSTED TONIGHT

I'm in for this.

cheers Muz

if thats $50.00 posted im in.. if not PM me a price delivered.. cheers

edit: just read that postage is on top.. can you get a price on total delivered to brisbane

ok confirmed with manufacturer and what we can do is provide two kinds of pod box.

one is a ready to go bolt in for cars with aftermarket cooler and one for cars with stock coolers so both cooler pipes are on the same side.

now for those with the return cooler pipes on the same saide what we can do is offer a blank box so no holes on the side you can make you own holes according to your cooler size and the angle your pipes run.

and for those with hybrid cooler systems this box will be a bolt on. price will still be at $50 per box with or without holes. postage should be no more then $20 at the most as these are very light and pretty flexiable so can fit it in a small padded box.

now payment for these will be needed upfront as i dont have the funds to get a hole heap made.

all those that have posted interest you will be getting a PM just to confirm the type you need and payment details. once payment for the first batch have been received production will start which shouldnt take more then a week to make.

damn knew i missed something. at this stage we dont need a certin number but what we will do is for the first batch to be made we will need payment of $50 by friday 21/11/08 end time is 5pm. those who have made payment by then will go into the first batch.

production will start monday. if things got to plan the box will be posted out the following monday being the 01/12/08

once production start i will send pms to those in the batch and adv of postage cost for those needing to post. once postage is paid box will be sent and for those locally picking it up arrange a time and pick up.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
