Looking good!

Does it use a common size filter? Like for example a holden/ford one?

Thats the big "thing" i hate about the ARC one ive got, filter replacements have to be ordered from overseas so when its servicing time, you've got to think weeks in advance or buy a set and just have them sitting around until you need them, the other thing is the width of the bell mounths but thats just personal. They look like they dont flow enough for big HP, so far on my car the filter has been sucked into the box on power runs, i wasnt expecting that from an ARC product.

A well built and big flowing airbox would be a great seller in Oz, even better with a drop in easily available filter (ideally not requiring mods to make fit)

Guaranteed this filter is not moving anywhere. It got this filter one day after is being ordered. K&N have huge local stocks. The jap stuff, I think, is a waste of time and not worth the price tag. The only mod required is a stanley knife to remove the rim to ensure the secure fitment. Not really a mod, just a 2-3 minute snip.

Bellmouth design can be varied but limited to turbo placement and each of them is different depending on the turbos being used, hence the "one-off".

This is more of a custom unit because I am modifying the inlet pipes to suit with only 4 holes for the mounts and the single inlet hole required to be cut.

Making them as a unit to sell ready to install is the idea, but this one itself is a bit of a one-off considering all the other mods to the car and the customers requests.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • 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.
