Some Top Secret Goodies

[domino_z]

Finally received my Top Secret full intake kit (thanks to Henry at RMSMotorparts who sources all my JDM stuff)

Got my Zele skirts too but there's plenty of pics of those floating around

.... the Top Secret intake and turbo inlet pipes not so much

Intake pipes are 65mm going into 60mm turbo inlet pipes

I've downloaded a few diy's for the inlet pipes and it looks like a knuckle buster, not looking forward to it

Lambo wheel as table base = Genius!!

Parts look fresh Domino_z.

Would definitely do well to the R35 GTR.

Lambo owned!

They look very much like the HKS intake pipes.........

Cheers

yeh the filters are from HKS but the cf makeshift airbox is TS's own work

most of the aftermarket inlet pipes end up looking all pretty much the same

Either way, HKS / Top Secret do a great job.

agreed, always been a fan of Smokey's cars

my build will be solely Top Secret engine side - intake, ti intercooler piping, high flowed oem turbos......

Nice!

Looking forward to see the results.

Big respect to Smokey Nagata along with other big garage names ie: Mine's / MCR / HKS, just to name a few.

Yes it was more my point that Top Secret have be re-branding HKS parts for years (same as Mines).

It's a great upgrade and one of the biggest restrictions on the earlier GTR so hope you have a nice tune to match for maximum gain.

You name by any chance isn't James is it? Can't wait to see the titanium I/C pipework.

Cheers

[domino_z]

no not James

i dont mind if they are re-branded, the TS were a good 250 bucks cheaper than the HKS kit with their drop-in filters (which im running atm)

makes sense now then why they're using the hks filters

Martin has provided me an e-map for the intakes + midpipe, but i have a full 90mm ti exhaust setup in the air atm, so ill have to do some datalogging and get a new map done

i have to learn how to use the datalogger on the cobb

"Didnt handle as well as the GTR so I made it into a table"

not as quick to the national speed limit either

[domino_z]

installed intakes today, fit of the airbox and piping was spot on

have gained some welcome turbo spool and some bov sound letting off at high boost - will be alot of fun on cold nights up in the hills, well worth the price imo, and the cf shroud around the pod filters should provide some level of heat soak resistance stuck in traffic

seriously considering some gfb hybrid bovs now to get some more bov sound at high boost
