hey mate this is what i've got, just a custom checker plate and perspex box with cold air feed underneath. just a heads up you pretty much need to keep the intake pipe stock coz it needs that box thing thats attached to it, thats why i stuck some checker plate on mine just to neaten it up a bit. good luck with yours :D

post a pic of your CAI setup darrell.

stock airbox with a highflow filter (K&N) works well. that or a setup similar to that one, but maybe with an enclosed box. a few peeps on here make their setups and sell them as a kit

gday,

NSM033, thats pretty much what im think of, dont no bout the checker plate though, it isnt a show car, haha. see wat happens.

yer i sused out that box thing, im gonna have to buy or make an adaptor for it, and i really like the idea with the pipin up through guard, half hour job this wkn i reckon. can get a fella to make the checker plate up at work on arvo shift, might as well make it look alright.

thanks fellas

I wanted cold air and couldn't be bothered making a cold air box... so I put my intakes on the other side of the engine bay.

I used to run this setup on another Skyline I owned. At the bottom of the airbox is a hole that allowed air to enter from the bumper duct lik NSMO33's.

I highly recomend the metal intake pipe and this Unifilter, they sound awsome. (scares animals and small children :P )

hey screamin...

would there really be much difference with the metal intake pipe compared to the plastic?

and what type of piping did nismo33 use for the funnel...

i think i might spend a day and do the cold air upgrade..

The metal pipe make the intake noise resonate. Sounds awsome. Plus, it has less turns in it than the factory plastic one.

Seems to floe good, as the car has always gone very hard for a 2ltr. The new owner seemed very impressed when he first gave it a tickle.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
