Hey Everyone,

My name is Nath, I think I did an introduction thread ages ago, I can't remember. Just letting you all know I have been looking for an R32 for a fair while now and have just purchased a maroon 1993 R32 GTS-t with the plates 'PANADL'.

As some of you know, This was Jon's(aka sxygtst) R32, and was in Canberra until a few months ago, as he is now currently in Victoria. The car is still probably how most of you have known it, however the 19" chromies no longer remain, currently has R33 rims(as I'm looking at getting some gunmetal or s/c 17's or 18's) and the number plate will change as I am transferring the registration to ACT.

Keep an eye out for me, and I'll give you a wave if I see any of you out on the road. I'll update you all on my progress with her, as I plan to do wheels etc fairly soon. I will also be out on Fridays at the Museum and will do my best to come down to the Jerra Pub on Tuesdays to meet some fellow skyline drivers.

Thanks to Jon for all his help and I hope to meet you all soon,

Nathan

      Airbox for +T

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do

      Airbox for +T

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.

      Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
