As marlows sell AFM/Pod adapters for $40 for a RB30, and they are, yes, SQUARE! in the middle, i have designed, and made, my own, which restricts pretty much, no airflow, unlike these over priced rubbish from the shops... If you would like information, or are interested in purchasing these, please contact me via email... [email protected] im not sure if i can make them for the RB20/RB25/RB26, they take a bit of measuring etc.. and i dont have one unfortunately :(

Nate, you should learn to make them for heaps of cars and start selling them for a bit of extra cash. We just paid a rip off price for one to put on the VN at Marows. If you sussed out how to make them you could probably sell heaps, especially for Skyline motors and Toyota Supras, Soarers etc!

I know how to make em, and i have done that for the RB30's, i dont have any other motors to get measurements from to make them, so unfortunately at the moment, i cant, but i can get any RB30 ones for anyone who would like one, and it would take me about 5 minutes to measure up one for any other type of car.. actually about 10, caus i have to remove the airbox... yukky yukky standard airboxes...

Well, if I here anyone wanting them I will tell them to call you and you can measure em up and make em. Actually, may know someone with a RB30 turbo that may want one. I will ask. Once you have measured em them keep the measurements so you can make em all the time for people.

How much do you want for them and how long does it take you to make them?

I want about $25 for a RB30 one, and it takes a couple days, as my dad has to cut the metal at his work, and then weld it after ive finished preparing/sanding it etc. About $30 if i have to measure it probably.. caus then, after one, i can do heaps...Its just a matter of gettin my dad to cut me steel, hes not allowed to do home stuff at his work, so a couple at a time.

    • Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.
    • As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.
    • get some flares on them, or wider guards haha
    • Another question sorry, what stainless do u use in the turbo external WG plumb back piping? Is it 321, 316 or 304?
    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
