Item: Heat Sheild for POD and uses factory snorkal, to suit R33 GTS-T

Location: Melbourne

Item Condition: Brand New

Reason for Selling: Already made myself one

Price and Payment Conditions: $120 includes regualr postage within australia

Contact Details: PM me and take it from there

I will supply the 6 pop rivets needed to put this together and 2 screws for the lid (plus a couple of spares). All that is needed it a pop rivet gun and a screw driver to fit this.

Also i will send instructions to make this easier, but its straight foward.

NOTE: i have put a sticker on my heat sheild, but i will not be supplying them.

Hi there is the heat shield which uses the factory snorkel still for sale??? If so im interested but want to know something. Do I need to drill in to the chassis of the car to install or it is like a full replacement of the factory airbox and you just screw it in to the factory position.

Sold my last one...can get more within the week if anyone still wants one.

as for the r33, it uses the factory snorkel.. and no this is no drilling required it uses the factory airbox screws, so its a total replacement to suit a pod filter

it doesnt fit a r32, as far as i know, but i've never seen an r32 engine bay

yeah their will be a gap if u dont have a snorkal, for me to make a new one up without a snorkal, means i have to make all new templates and measure it all up again, so im only making these ones.

they are the same price..the clear ones are sold out, ive got one left, which is pending payment, the rest are aliminium lids.

Does it make much of a sound difference to a stock GTST, ive herd by adding a pod u will her the turbo suck much louder, but the pods in a box so im askign from you personal experence does it make much of a sound difference.

And secondly does this mean if a cop pops the hood its rendered "legal" ???? cause the pod is boxed???

Thanks Michael

yup since its boxed, it is said to be legal..

You can still hear induction noise once its inclosed in the box..It will be even louder, once you finish your whole exhaust tho..

since this is a technically a box, it should be legal, ive never had an issue and the ones ive sold, ive never heard the msay they have had any issues.

once boxed it will be ever so slightly deeper in sound, but it mainly blocks of the heat and allows the pod to suck in cold clean air

    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
    • Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha
