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:

    • The trouble with phone apps is that they really do not know the sensitivity of the mic on each specific phone, whether there is some sort of cover or skin that can change that, etc etc. So the readings off them are not calibrated. You certainly couldn't be sure that you were even within 3 dB. I have the same app on two (actually more than that) different phones/tablets and the readings in the same room at the same time are never the same. I don't mind the apps - they are as useful as a dyno - if you're testing for delta from thing1 to thing2. But not to try to generate some sort of absolute value.
    • I'm gonna use the "Sound Meter" app from the Google Play Store and as close as I can bother to these procedures: 4. TEST METHOD FOR ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT PRE ADR83 IN-SERVICE GOODS VEHICLES AND OMNIBUSES 4.1 Microphone position 4.1.1 The microphone shall be directed towards the orifice of the exhaust outlet and shall be supported by a tripod or similar device not providing excessive acoustic reflection. The general requirements for positioning microphones are shown in the Appendix. 4.1.2 The nominal axis of maximum sensitivity of the microphone shall be substantially parallel to the test site surface and shall make an angle of 45 degrees ±10 degrees with the principal direction of gas flow from the exhaust. 4.1.3 In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used. National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for In-Service Motor Vehicles Page 3 4.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface. 4.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 500mm±25mm. 4.1.6 [Relates to vertical exhaust outlets] 4.1.7 For vehicles fitted with one exhaust outlet the microphone shall be placed so that the greatest possible distance is achieved between it and the vehicle. 4.1.8 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] 4.1.9 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] TLDR: 200mm off ground 45 degree angle relative to exhaust flow 500mm from tailpipe exit. (I probably won't use a tripod) Here's a photo, cause I read the instructions wrong myself.
    • No ABS, no TCS, no airbags, no cruise control, no lane departure assist, no emergency brake assist, no orange lights in the mirrors (continuously annoying me in multi-lane traffic), no stupid rear view camera. I am the one responsible for where my car goes and how it does it.
    • Cheapest Jaycar one is only $65.
    • Probably best way would be using a proper dB / SPL meter lol Buy one and ship it from state to state to have a consistent test device lololol
