I was recently Red Stickered, requiring me to get a blue slip or full inspection, I currently have pod filters exposed, but have found this kit on Just Jap for very cheap,

http://justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=17334&cat=272&page=3

I'm wondering if this kit is enclosed enough, allowing me to pass the inspection. Also i live in NSW

Thanks for any help!

Speak to the person u plan to use for the inspection first to avoid dissapointment.... I run the 34gtt version and am happy with it but am yet to see what the cops say, I think it should be ok but suggest checking first :)

they sell for around $330!!! on ebay, alomost tempted to get an ARC induction panel box!

They are no better than the box in the first post for legality!

I don't understand, the ARC is an enclosed box, the SRI from JJ is a pod cover ?

I'm seriously considering the ARC box but if its the same as pods then screw that!

Lol they arent enclosed the top of the box IS the intake and IMO they look good but are crap as they suck nothing but gutloads of hot air out of the engine bay. My car had 1 and when i upgraded the turbo i ditched it quick smart. If you own a GTR thought the stock air box isnt a restriction till around 400kw??? Id gladly pay $330 to be legit and also sucking cold air :yes:

yeah sorry how stupid of me hahahahah, gaping hole, 800$ new!!!! WOW, so strange, looks like i might have to invest on OEM

LOL yeah also forgot to warn you about the ARC prices! ;)

theres one on ebay for 400, i would never pay full price, just thought i'd snap up a good deal and an awesome comprise for defectable pods, but instead i would have bought a defectable hot air induction......

I had problem with that about 2 years ago. The Cop's interpretation was: Only one "intake mod" is legally allowed, means its either an aftermarket intercooler or an aftermarket induction system, not both. Not stock is aftermarket.

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
