Depends on how much you want to spend.

Cheap option, go to any exhaust shop and get them to make up an intake pipe from some mild steel, get it powdercoated (or chrome dipped if you want bling, more expensive though) to stop rust and make it look smick, then pop a pod on the end of the pipe. Get them to weld on a few nipples as per factory lines and there you are. Should be cheap, ie $100-$150 all up.

Expensive option, go to the same shop and get the same thing made up in stainless steel and get it highly polished for the bling factor.

Cheapest option, If you are handy with a welder, go nuts. Dont forget to make a up a nice cold air box, otherwise you'll probably go backwards hp wise.

Any exhaust shop will be able to make it for you, get mandral bends so it doesn't look like poo. Depending on how many bends you need, it should be cheap. DON'T LET THEM BEND YOU OVER!

TJ, an RB26 plenum used individual throttle bodies (ITBs) an adapter plate is available (not off the shelf i believe) and can be fabricated for a bit of coin. there are benefits of doing this but unless you are chasing response and want to do some fancy tuning with it, you are probably better off using a greddy plenum, etc.

hey 0oskylineo0 were did you get the intake from??? like can you buy it from somewere or was it custom made,

thankks for ur help guys, i might take it to a turbo shop and see if they can make me some intercooler pipping to fit :D

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
