R32 GTS Rb25de stock air cleaner setup

Hi all,

I have a R32 GTS Rb25de that needs to go through a NSW EPA inspection. The issue was excessive noise, which has been corrected with a new muffler. But I also need to refit all the stock emission control stuff. I've done everything except removing the pod filter and reinstalling the original air cleaner. This was already off the car when I bought it. I got a box of bits with the car but I'm not sure everything is there. My question is can anyone supply a photo or diagram of how the stock air cleaner, ducting and hoses that go to and from it should look.

Thank in advance.

Thanks for the help guys. I realised I had all the parts except the airbox. And you cannot get one anywhere. I had a pod filter and heard and read varying stories as to whether they are illegal in NSW. I ended up speaking to one inspector who didn't want to answer questions but just said put everything back to stock and you'll be right. Then spoke to an inspector elsewhere and he said the issue with pod filters is induction noise, so basically so long as he could not hear it (or pretty much see it) it should be right. So I built a sheet metal enclosure for the pod filter, with one open side, and all passed.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
