fully sealed with k&n flat panel air filter inside above the 4" intake.

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.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
