Twin turbo pipe mod should be done regardless.

Has been done.

I'm assuming nobody has ever done a dyno test to prove that intake piping mod has any benefit, despite it being obvious that there would be "some" benefit.

Another way would be to check the pressure inside the airbox on the "outside" of the filter. If it doesnt dip much below atomspheric at full noise, then the duct cant help. You'd have to plumb in a gauge feed tho.

I'm wondering if that's what Nismo did?

I have no idea how shady a business they are, but you'd have to have done some testing before claiming what they have.

"Reduces Compressor intake pressure by 30 percent at the moment of boost pressure, also decreases air-path pressure"

And call me stupid, but what does that even mean? Does that mean that a pressure gauge was put in the airbox and at the moment boost comes on the vacuum in the box was less because air was flowing more freely into the airbox?

You could say that changing the panel filter for a more free flow design would also have the same effect.

It does, the ricer in me loves it.

I like the Mines carbon one more, but this one I could potentially bring myself to cut in half so I could give it to a Fibreglass place and have them make a mould.

Do you guys think there'd been any interest in a replica?

Not trying to justify anything, I like data where available. There area ton of things I could buy because they're pretty but I tend to prefer function over form (where I have to pick one or the other).

If I can have both then that's nice too.

But if you like the look of it then buy it. Don't try and justify bling with performance figures

pshhh shows what you know.

Every nismo item adds 10 killawasps. Everyone knows this.

I'm pretty sure the kill switch liter is worth an extra 30kw btw. Awaiting data from the tuna....

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
