K&N POD it is i think.. with some heatshielding aircon crap :rolleyes: DONE.

When I start construction i'll let you know james :rolleyes:

Hey id give anything to stop that bloody sound!

oh and as for the ducting the aircon stuff folds inside out at about 160kmhr on the strip.

And i wouldnt worry too much about what material u use for a CAI i am gunna use alluminium sheet with a perspex lid :rolleyes:

Ur basic mission is to force cold air up and keep it in there will holding hot air out....So its not really a matter of what material u use as a partition......

Thats what my mum told me anyway. :D

or you could do what i've done...

cut most of the top of the airbox off, just leaving the outer edge that clamps the panel filter to the bottom half on the air box. Then, mount it vertically behind the left headlight using ducting back to the turbo/throttle body. sucks coldish air because its only sucking from the front. k&n panel filter. cheap as, panel filter was free, $10 for piping. had the zip ties already :D

Yeah I like that idea .... I was actually reading a magazine article the other night about the GRACER "GTR" and he has a perspex lid on his cold air box ..... looks joy :D

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
