Hey guys I am trying to find some info about installing an arc twin entry cooler with an arc airbox.

Not much out there on the web. Has anyone installed a twin entry cooler whilst maintaining the arc air box?

Cheers

I have a bad feeling the arc airbox is bigger then stock airbox :(

What did u do about your return bov piping?

Sold the whole kit! I toyed with the idea of fabbing up a new pipe, but it would have been a shit fight and I wasn't going to take a hole saw to my car.

What's the setup of the car?

Should have researched bit more before buying the intercooler kit. But I guess I was thinking a specialised kit would fit without too many mods.

Might have bite the bullet if it fits with pods. The weigh up of the intercooler and airbox is an easy enough answer.

Cant see much on the interwebs so I think ill give it a go to make it work

Adam,

I'm interested to see what you come up with. I'm interested in the same IC for my BNR32.

Problem is that the GTR is setup for a single entry charge pipe so I'm curious to see how two entry pipes will work for the GTR.

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
