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.

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
