Hey guys,

Really sorry if this has been posted before....but I don't even know what they are called. With the standard air snorkel on the stageas/RB25 engines I went to take it off today and those plastic clip things popped out. I didn't realise that there was a special way to take them off. So when I went to clip them back in they don't clip in properly :P

First of all what are they called and where can I buy some more from?

Thanks,

Matt

Hey mate, I did the exact same thing with my R34 snorkel. Go to Autobarn or SuperCheap and get a:

Champion Panel Pack - 2 Scrivet Clips - 8mm hole - P/N PP68

The ones I got can be opened & closed using a standard phillips head screwdriver.

You may want to measure the hole just be on the safe side - I got some 6mm ones too, just in case.

At around $5 a pack they're a rip-off for bits of plastic but what can you do...

use cable ties.

seriously

Well, I've had to pull off the snorkel like five times since putting the scrivets in, a lot less painful than replacing cable ties every time.

Otherwise I'm sure they'd work just as well :P

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
