cool so i bought a pod filter and the adapter plate for my rb20det powered r32 skyline gts-t. Any way i was just wondering where to install it . Inside the airbox(obviously with the old filter element removed, so that it draws some air from the old cold air intake piping)? Or totally remove the airbox and having it sitting where the airbox was?(or will that be to hot) Or make up some really long pipe and have the filter down near my front right guard where my cold air intake is?

Any way any help is appreciated, i tried searching but couldnt find much on 32, only on 33.

thanks :)

umm you wont be able to use the old airbox with a pod, you need to unbolt it. leave the cold air intake in place and look into making your own airbox out of alluminium sheeting.

wouldnt suggest putting it in the guard.

I dont quite understand, do you mean to prevent heat, or to like funnel the air into the filter? Please explain a lil more about the airbox your talking about, im thick as a plank, i did think these thinks were made to be without a airbox, and if i have to make up a airbox for it then i may as well keep the original filter.

      App to track mods, repairs etc.

      Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com

      Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com

      It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.

      Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂

      1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
