Hello everyone , I have an r33 GTR and ive had the intercooler rubber where the twin turbo cross over pipe joins to the intercooler pipe just to the left of the air box next to charcoal canister , it's split right the way around and pretty much made my car die in it's ass . I still got it home thank god .

Now I need to get one ASAP !! In Penrith NSW . in willing to drive and pick it up but this is my daily car . It's 100% stock at the moment other then increased boost and oil cooler (n1) .

Someone please help me out and steer me the right way ! I used some cloth tape to get home but it ended up splitting more the before lol .

Checked the F/S section?

People usually wrecking/changing to hard pipe or going single & selling the turbo piping section so you might need to buy a couple pipes/hoses - good for backup though :)

Might not find one "today" however.

I'm also sure you could get them from Nissan, for that kinda item I reckon it wouldn't be too expensive if you can get someone to order it @ Trade.

I don't want a hard pipe kit I want the stock hose. Surley someone here must have a stock hose they have upgraded ?

If you read a little closer I said SILICON not hard pipe, why buy a pipe that is 16or so years old which could then split again. But hey your decision

yeah, nah, i once priced one up from nissan at trade.

apparently the original has been discontinued and superceeded with another pipe, and is worth(if memory serves) around the $370 mark.

post in wanted to buy section, thats how i got helped out.

or go with the black silicon pipe as previously mentioned from just jap...

looks stock, handles more power.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
