just build an air box 4 it outta sheet metal or like wise cuz it does crap without 1 anywayz as all its doin is sucking up all the hot air coming off ur engine...

i just whipped one up in a couple of days with a cai, cuz i got defected 4 mine as well lol, there aint that much of any gains in the NA but it sounds cool :laugh: ... if not just get a stockie n wack it on with a high flow panel filter, think i still got mine as well if ya still need it

Hi there,

I'm interested in getting that stock airbox off any of you guys, if you still have it..

How much would you like for it?

Just to confirm (I don't know much about cars :laugh: ) .. When I got my car, it has a greedy air pod filter. Now that I am going for a roadworthy, I've been told to remove that one because I have an intercooler, and apparently its not street legal to have both. What you guys have will fix my problem?

Cheers,

Val

intercooler? turbo? air box for an N/A is different mate, you'll be best to post in the 'Wanted To Buy' section.

If you got defected for a pod you dont need to put your stock air box, just go to autobarn and buy a pod shield...cost like $20 i think, you can have a pod...just as long as its covered. i kno this because i had a pod and needed a RWC so dont bother going to buy a stock air filter.

I need to replace this:

with the stock one...

Please let me know what I need..

PS: What does NA stand for? ... My skyline is a GTT (single turbo)

Cheers

This is the Naturally Aspirated part of the Skylines Australia Forum, that being non-turbo skylines.

The airbox for a N/A is different to that of a Turbocharged Skyline.

Your best bet would be one of these: http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=272&page=2

This will fit with your factory intercooler piping, and the box won't foul FMIC piping if you have a FMIC that has piping that runs over the radiator.

Sourcing a factory airbox and snorkel, and a hi flow panel filter such as a K&N, would easily equate to the same cost if not more.

ohhh now it makes sense lol... i reckon it would be cheaper 2 make up ur own shielding n keep the pod u got... i paid no more than 5$ 4 mine n its polished metal just scrappy stuff but it looks pretty damm good n does the job

oh yeh make sure its all bolted on 2 cuz they will get ya on that as well

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
