Need Someone To Make Up An Intake Pipe(melb)


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'm after someone to make me up an intake pipe for my r34 GTT. Preferably stainless 3". I require 'barbs/nipples' for bov and circ. If anyone can fabricate this or can put me onto someone who can please let me know. I live in Melbourne SE suburbs and can drive car to you for trial fitting.

I pay cash :P

Thanks, James

Silicon pipes are good if you want to dress up your engine bay, but to produce the horsepower a larger intake is required. Silicon tends to suck shut with higher boost pressure. Appreciate the help though.

Thanks mate, How did it go? Any reversion with that 80mm pipe?

It went very well, there didn't seem to be any reversion but due to the wet road I couldn't really push it. Thanks again mate, will keep you posted in regards to tune.

this is the one i made up..

Are you venting the BOV? What about the crankcase ventilation?

The hard part to making these is the reversion when the BOV releases, causing metering issues with the airflow sensor.

Talking about intake pipes, I knocked up a new intake pipe for my R33 on the weekend! :-)

I borrowed my friend's tig welder and used some piping I had at home.

2.5" on the turbo end, 3" on the airbox end.

Fits the standard turbo and retains the factory airbox, BOV return and breather line.

Makes a crazy intake sound too! Siiiik!

The angle that BOV return comes in on will cause reversion, (air will flow out towards the airflow meter instead of into the turbo) It may need to be angled in more, see how it goes I guess.

Any results from the tune?

Photos of the intake pipe please :D

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
