Hi guys, i'v got an r33gts-t and currently have the standard air box with no snorkle as the fmic pipe doesnt allow it to go on. I was looking into getting a pod filter and maybe have a cold air feed??? Whats the best thing to do and is there a certain filter i should go with?

Any help would be great!

Cheers James

I just have a pod filter inside of a custom aluminium box that I made with insulation padding on the inside of it.

On a forced induction car it aint a HUGE deal having no cold air intake if you have a decent front mount. Obviously it aint going to hurt though.

Do my intake setup IF you don't have a return flow cooler. Stock airbox (hacked up air feed to fit over cooler pipe. Put a hole in the bottom/side of the airbox. Put a duct from the airbox down through unused stock intercooler hole into front bar. Attach pod to the end of it. I have my guard liner in there too so cops can't see I have it so it's "legal" lol. Best way by far to do it. An you have 2 intakes :)

hey mate, which part of the bottom side of the air box did you cut out? Can you draw a rough pic or take a pic of your air box for us?Cheers

I can try take pics mate. But it's in the car in a way that you can't tell it's there. I'll take a pic from the inside of the airbox and post it up tonight/tomorrow

Is this the type of filter you are talking about Richard?

Cheers

save all the hassles with a 2 inlet mod restrictions and cut the snorkle around your intercooler pipe. at least you wont get any heat soke with a pod...

I just marked out the snorkle ovel the pipe and used a jigsaw then glued on some "Bunnings house flashing" (like soft alluminum)..

pic below. very easy and near stock....

mind you i did have to reglue it at the rear as I was impatient and installed it while wet...fixed now though

Regards,

dazza

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
