Hi guys

It's time to get rid the standard air intake and get me something a bit better. I have read the threads about the a'pexi power intake and decided it looks the goods, i also am thinking of buying it through www.perfectrun.com.au . They have the a'pexi power intake for $345 (not including freight) for the R32 GT-R, is there anything else i will need to buy? or does that kit include everything for the installation?

Thanks.

Very professional....looking good :D

You need to partition them off so they suck cool air instead of nasty engine bay air.

Just looking at your pics an easy way to do it might be to separate the filters from the adapter tubes and place your partition so it sits against the flange of the tubes, cut holes for the air intakes then use longer bolts to put your filters backon with the partition sandwiched between them and the flanges. would make for a nice simple job. Good luck

Uas is the only place I know that supplies them and unless your car is stock I don't know how they can get the holes for the pipeing in the right place . I got one and it never even looked like fitting, Best way is to make your own using aluminium backed foam. it's much easier to work with than rigid material and you can close it off completely.

cheers

Plus $82 freight. It came with the brackets and the two pipes for each pod, just unpack and take off the standard airbox, and wack her on, the directions are in japanese but the diagrams were very easy to follow. It took me about 30 minutes to do it and this is my first hands-on mod, so it's not that hard.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
