I need the car at the moment to make a pipe up. I can make a jig off the next 34 that comes in though as I have been asked by a few interstate skyline owners now.

Is the airbox/afm in the same position on the 33 also?

can you make a 33 gtst one with out the car?

How much for one with the bov pipe and vent pipe, if its easier you can put the vent pipe on the turbo side of the intake as i run a catch can and the return hose comes out between the strut and the airbox.

No, I haven't made a jig for them yet as I wasn't sure what style people would want, It looks like most owners want the BOV return and breather plumbed in which adds cost and requires the existing steel piping to be modified. Best to drop around and get it custom fitted how you want it if you're local.

where abouts in melbourne are you?

i also forgot to mention that mine needs to be 3" both ends and fit with the factory intercooler piping, cant believe noboby makes a 3" to 3" intake pipe from any type of material!

I use 80mm usually which is 3 inch internally, you can just squeeze the 3 inch silicone over it. No problem fitting it in with the factory cooler piping and painted black it looks stock. I will definitely make a jig off the next intake I make, it shouldn't be hard to make a few up on the bench then.

As there is a vacuum created in front of the compressor, any restriction is amplified. The best option would be a large funnel bolted to the front of the turbo.

sorry i don't understand, the restriction is amplified?

So does that mean it makes it worse? Or is it the venturi effect?

It means you need the largest pipe possible into the turbo to give it the best chance to flow the most amount of air. Why stop there? These are the twin pods for an 800hp Supra intake I just finished. The airbox will get air forced from the duct on the front bar.

A Big thanks to Scotty nm35, he made me an intake pipe perfectly. If anyone in Melbourne's SE requires custom pipe fabrication, shoot Scotty a PM im sure he will be able to help. :P

Already helped him out mate.

So is it possible to get a 3" metal intake pipe with the 2 factory returns for an r33 gtst without seeing the car?

I've got a return flow cooler as well, so the intercooler piping is in the factory position.

It's not hard all skyline intakes are very simular when using a pod. I try and follow the strut curve then let it land about 20 mm off the headlight i can't post pics at the moment. I found no restriction by using 80 od or 76 od pipe I tested it on the dyno on my last car r32 rb20 with a td06. The main restriction is the filter but then it only made a 2kw difference with it off with a 76 od pipe. I have acces to all types of skylines my mates don't mind me borrowing them for a few hours. I can even make them to suite stock air box if need be. Also the oil breather hooked up always seems to cause problems with blow by I tested this as well on my 32 a catch can mounted level or above the breather will allow condensation to find the can but oil stays where it should be in the motor but when mounted between breather and intake it caused the can to fill up. I made the catch can set up for DVS jez drift car and it never has issues with filling up 3 full track days and it's perfect. When you start making 800hp + then pipe size may have a impact

I can make them up on the bench now for stock airbox or pods with bov/breather fittings/hoses, joiners and clamps as a kit out of 80mm alloy. They will fit r33 and r34 and both series C34 stageas. I checked out a 32 intake today which is even easier to make (with only one bend) for oem setups or pods. :thumbsup:

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
