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!

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
