Hey Guys,

I'm looking at getting all of my intake piping either made up or buying a kit depending on recommendations and others experiences. Currently my intercooler piping goes through the stock holes near the POD filter. I wanted to change this so I can make a custom intake box. I'd also like to get a hard piped CAI but not sure where to get one from or if anyone knows where I should go to get one made up. If anyone has any idea's or tips regarding this I'd appreciate it. I've checked Ebay but I'm not really interested in cheap "clip together" pipes that are for sale.

Located in Southern Adelaide.

Piping is for S2 RS4

Cheers,

James.

Also, AM Performance were going to do one for me. Give Andrew a call, 0401865373.

His workshop is at Greenwith, so not South, but worth travelling for.

Cheers for the tip Ryan, I'll be sure to get a quote from him.

Obviously I'd like to travel as close as possible due to work every day.. But if it's worth the trip I'm sure I can organize something.

Does he also do Silicone hosing and fixtures, etc.. I'm looking at Updating my Engine Bay if possible, but haven't been able to find decent workshops anywhere.. It's always a case of either trying to rip me off or just do dodgy work...

Cheers for the help!

I can vouch for Andrew's work, top notch stuff.

He mainly does performance mods and fabrication, primarily exhausts and dump pipes, so I'm sure the fixtures are fine. Not sure about the silicone hosing but won't hurt to ask!

Tell him Ryan with the M35 sent you.

honestly mate, for all the stuff your looking at doing you'd be better off just converting it all back to stock. the factory airbox is not a restriction and it comes with its own CAI. plus it wont cost anything if u still have the bits. :thumbsup: ive got no idea where the rumor that pods give u more power came from but it just isnt true. try them out back to back (stock VS pod) next time ur on the dyno.

Yeah man I understand from a power point of view, but I'm not looking at doing the piping for any power gains, I'm doing it to tidy up my engine bay. The stock stuff is fine but if I wanted a car to keep stock then I would have bought something else.

Cheers for the advice though.:thumbsup:

Meant to ask Ryan, You still parking at Topham?

Lol was there today. That's usually where I park if I drive in, but I only drive in once every 2-3 months, when I have heaps of stuff to carry in. Too expensive to drive in and park every day.

Yeah man my wallet is usually pretty light after parking there but unfortunately for me, I'm a creature of convenience. And starting work at 4:50am means no buses.. :glare:

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
