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 :)

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

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

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
