I'm considering that.

Makaveli.

Check the first thread for a full description.

Price should be somewhere between $100 to $150 depending on many things.

Are you in?

ICE. You are already in.

Nobody is late yet. I haven't even made the prototype for the R34 yet.

Look's like I will have different ones for R32 and R33!

I don't think I will be ready for payments for another month yet, so don't worry too much.

Okay, Update time.

Yesterday I went and bought some P.V.C pipe, 3 inch in diameter, which I am going to heat up and bend to make up a dummy pipe to take to the fabricators.

This will give them a better idea as to a couple of things.

It was also suggested to me yesterday to use 3 inch pipe the whole way and simply reduce the diamter with a reducing hose from 3" to 2.5".

This is sounding like a good idea because if somebody goes a changes a turbo with a bigger mouth, all they would have to do to the inlet duct is change the reducing hose.

If anybody feels this will be a problem, please let me know. I think that if the reducing bush has a resonable angle on the step that it will be fine.

Any problems, please post, if you don't have a problem with it, please don't post as this thread is going to be obscenely long soon!

Thank AnFz, you have put the quantity at 50!!

I need a couple of things please.

Could somebody with a standard AirBox from an R32 and R33 please photograph and post a pic of the airbox. View needed is from the AFM outlet side.

I know that the R34 air goes into the top of the box, through the filter and into the AFM, and I think that the R33 and R32 air goes in the bottom, through the filter and out the top.

Please post a pic or two to help me out.

(P.S I had a look at the Apexi POWER INTAKE kit, and it costs from $500 up, plus freight! The Power Intake is basically what I'm making now!)

Hey Guys.

Just took my jig and the pipe that Jager lent to me (THANKS JAGER) over to my fabricators and they are going to make up a prototype for me. May not get it before the cruise but I'm hoping I will.

I've got an R33 and R32 rubber pipe here and from what I can see, the section immediately before the turbo is the same, with the BOV and PCV return bits in the same spot, but the actual location of the AFM is different.

Looks like each one will be a different pipe. Shithouse.

Oh well, just makes it more fun.

I've decided that the hoses will come from Shift Performance and these will be in Blue.

I know that conflicts with some stealth concepts but they seem to have the right stuff at the right price.

They also have red versions of the hoses but they are more expensive.

More about this towards the end of the project.

I don't yet have firm prices as I'm waiting for the prototype to be made up to recieve a price from my fabricators.

I have prices on all other bits though.

You will use your existing hose clamps from the AFM and Turbo, and I can supply extra clamps for the silicone hose (one for AFM and one for Turbo).

As we are going to have to cut the BOV and PCV return pipes back about 20 mm each, I will also supply the silicone (or rubber, depending on what sizes are available) hoses and clamps for these.

As you can see, this is a fairly in depth project.

Anyway, I'm going to be anxious until I get my prototype either just before or just after the cruise in Melbourne, so hopefully I will be able to show people my wares soon.

Bob,

I'm gonna put you down on the list anyway, because I know the prices are going to be irresistable and the quality will be second to none.

You can always pull out later.

I seem to be Whoring my own thread.

Okay, I need a little help and the use of an R32 and R33 Skyline for a Saturday morning.

I need to do what I did to my R34 and make up a jig for my fabricators.

This will involve you coming to my work on a Saturday morning for about 3 to 4 hours and helping me remove bit of your engine bay in order to remove the rubber duct and weld some rings together to make the jig.

You would preferably be a bit hands on so we can get it pulled apart before 10am as that's when my fabricators go home, and so we can go home and wax our cars for the cruise.

This will happen on Saturday the 15th (Day before the cruise)

That's an R32 and R33 with STANDARD AIRBOXES fitted, or at least bring your standard airbox for the day.

Thanks, please let me know.

BASS OUT

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
