Why don't you think the airbox counts as an intake mod?

The rules state, only one intake mod is allowed. If you've changed your cooler, you must have the standard airbox. Granted it might be harder to dick you for it given it's an airbox, but if a cop wants to be an ass about it he/she will get you for that IMO.

an arc airbox if f**king awesome dudes.

definaely worht the cash i spent getting mine. i have had a few different intake setups (stock airbox with upgraded panel filter, apexi pod on a 3 inch metal intake pipe etc) and the arc is the only one which u actually notice the difference over the whole rev range it is more responsive.

ive been pulled over many many times with it and never had a problem however petit is another story lol

How much power are you after, in my research i have found that the standard gtr airbox is good for 300awkw any way (some say closer to 350).

Ive got 350kw. Thats all im after, no need for anymore, just want cooler air going in. With the bonnet im looking at it has a vent right where the arc box has intakes.

Legally expensive :ninja:

But worth it if you have the dosh...

Actually, near impossible to tell unless they go ripping your front bar off, but it's still technically an intake modification replacing the standard side mount with an ARC...

Not that I don't believe you but I'd really like to see dyno graphs to back that up. Not being a smart ass here, actually being serious - do you by any chance have any? I've often wondered just how much difference, if any I'd see.

ARC coolers are rad, I had one (and still have a damaged but air tight one for an R34 GTT in my roof). Not sure what you mean about legal, unless you mean the factory mount replacements, which yeah - you'd get away with.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

      They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
