Edit 4 birds..yeah bottom of airbox is cut out, you can hear it and it draws air from the holes underneath where the cooler pipes used to be as well as the snorkel..I ran it for a bit with panel filter and box stock but it didnt feel as quick..

Ah k. Did you run it with panel filter and holes in the bottom of the airbox?!

it is illegal to have any oil based air filters, such as k&n, bmc etc etc, not that the cops care about it or would pin you for it...

the pod in the airbox seems pointless since it will have less surface area to get air from.

your better off buying a decent panel filter for your airbox, and rig up some sort of snorkel.

thats a very good point....like what my mate did to his commodore, his snorkel was as wide as the radiator sitting on top of it increasing the amount of outside air coming into the box unlike the standard snorkel that is not wide at all...

any done that to their skylines yet? never seen that kinda set up in a skyline...plenty of that setup in commodores....

What is cr33ms setup like?

I always run panel filters as i found the pod noise annoying and I noticed no difference from the pod to panel, despite numerous dyno shops telling me they do make a difference..When i took my car for tune i took both filters and the pod was used..when i got it back i put the panel in and it honestly didnt feel as good.

Now in a car with alot of HP this difference would be insignificant but in my car it feels worthwhile and better with a pod,(maybe a better brand panel would fix this but its a bit late for that now)

It has air coming into it from all directions so i hardly think surface area is a problem, it still sounds like a pod but not as loud which is good and at a quick glance it looks stock. Its a win win 4 me..

@birds... nah i didnt run the panel with holes in the bottom of the box as it would not be filtered...

And that would be silly :P

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
