Cai And Intercoolers For R33 Gtst

Hi,

I have a near stock r33 gts-t manual (cat back and pod only). I want to keep it streetable and very responsive so was planning on doing a CAI, larger intercooler, dump pipe and high flow cat to finish the exhaust then a touch more boost and a tune.

Now I know these cars get pulled over all the time (i got pulled over for a randowm check 40mins after buying it!)

so i want to keep it fairly legal...

The car had the airbox removed and a pod put in its place which is breathing in hot air.... what options do I have here? only to put the airbox back in and try and bit a pod or high flow panel in it? or is there a cold air intake system going around? my problem is that i cant find any where for the pod to get cold air form the front of the car... the area near the airbox is very dealed form ambient air? what have people done in this area? pics would be great!

also in regard to intercoolers, i would really like to use the standard holes in the sheet metal and not cut new holes as the car is extreamly pristine and i want to keep everything reversable. can you get a kit that has a large front mount that runs the piping through the two standard holes? or is there a better option? how is the GTR piping and cooler run? any thoughts brands or experiences would be great!

thanks!

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
