I am trying to get a R33 blue slipped. Currently has a pod on it and mechanic tells me I need to get a standard air box. Can anyvbody tell me if a Pod Filter cold air induction box will pass or does it need to be the factory original set up.

You need to track down a standard air box with filter or go and do a drive by noise test and have the car engineered.

I'd just find a standard air box. :O Check the ads on here as there is always someone wrecking a R33 or call Just Jap in Sydney, I found them very helpful.

Hey thanks guys appreciate it. I'll try to get a standard air intake. Had a bloke try to rip me off last night over one. He said I could borrow one provided I would give him $350.00 deposit and he would return $310.00 when I bought it back trouble was he wouldn't give me a reciept or anything for the money.

Beware of Ron May from Beresfield.

Seems a bit dodgy to me

Make a box yourself, if you need ill make you a template, where do you live, if you need a hand PM me and we might be able to work something out.

I charge by time, for every 15 minutes I charge 1 can of Jim Beam.

My charge to make a template is 1 x can of Jim Beam.

Also delete the name, that is a NO NO, never name someone as that is bad ju ju, if someone wants to know about someone else PM them the info, otherwise it is called slander

Hey mate, you can get it blue sliped, cover the pod with one from just jap or make one yourself, bring it down to my work and see if my boss will pass it. PM me for adress. I just got my 33 done off him so ill try asking him 4 you. Make sure the rest of the car is sweet, ie tyres lights ect. Cheers, BTW it will set you back $110 for the blue slip for the imported vehicle, you will also need a copy of the customer infromation slip. Which has all your specs for the car, you should have been given this paperwork from either the dealer or owner depending on where oyu got it. Without these you wont be able to get a blue slip.

Peeps, I think we should have a standard set of everything which members can borrow. I had a standard AIR BOX and I gave it away for free to clean my garage.....(silly me!). We most of people replace those in upgrades and give them away cheap. Once you have the blue slip you put back your pod.... I am sure of that!

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
