Hi,

I dont know if i anyone else has had this problem but since installing the apexi super suction kit i think my gtr feels well slower.

When the stock airbox was on the car it felt like it was pulling abit more compared to the pods.

I know its not even a 8kw gain with pods but is the stock r33 gtr airbox better then pods..

Ye, even worse than it does now in summer :P

going from a hot day to a cool night you can feel the difference in a very noticeable way that's how bad it can be

is the stock r33 gtr airbox better then pods..

Yep, always has been... always will :P

You need proper cold air induction to the pods for them to be upto the same standard as the airbox.

The factory airbox will do 350rwkw easy... put it back on :)

Mate I've got to rewire my z32's this arvo as I've also just got a super suction kit and was wondering whether you could let me know how you've wired the z32's up. From the literature I've read which was specifically for R32's and I own an R34 the wiring went from left to right ie left wire on stock plug goes to left wire on z32 plug, second from left to second from left etc. Are you able to confirm whether this is the case or not?

BTW did you leave your stock snorkel / air intake that went to the stock air box on?

Sorry for the hijack...

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
