This should continue, There seems to be a lack of good (and well priced)airbox's out there for R32 GTRs. Most people have pods (myself included), maybe a universal shroud could be made to detract attention from Constable Care?

Hi everyone, here's a short update,

Its going VERY slowly, but we're still doing it (hehe i bought a R33 boot after all) but yeh, i've been away on a business trip for a couple of months so now i'm back i'm going to get straight into it.

prices/etc wont be available until we get our first prototype and get everything going, and its likely to be awhile. maybe a month? not sure at the moment.

Ill be making one of these for my gtr with apexi pods in the next 2 or 3 weeks so ill let ya know how i get on, itl probably be pretty easy to make a duplicate and send it over to ya.

quink,............... i've heard around the ridges that there are companies crash testing carbon bonnets to meet ADR approvel, will your exterior bits be ADR items? I have a lovely wet carbon bonnet on my z33 but my insurance company has now knocked me back because of it, do you or anyone else know who insures these carbon bits, I had wanted a nose cone, bonnet, front gaurds, mirrors, 3d wing for a r34 project but not if i can't insure the thing.

Would love one of those.

Also front lip r32 GTR 4 sure

Hi I am interested in an R32GTR airbox to suit Apexi pods. preferably carbon fibre side(s) and perspex top (so the filters can still be seen/inspected).

there are a few designs around and I could send you a link if you want to have a look.

I'm sure there is plenty of R32GTR owners with Apexi pods who would buy one.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
