Just wondering, a quick, cost effective and easy way on feeding the pod colder air.

I have the standard factory piping and there isnt much room in the bottom right part of the engine bay. I was thinking of getting some heat resistant foam/material and pop it over the pod, and hold it on (zip ties?). Does anyone have a better idea of what they have done? If you have any picts of the setup it would be great if you can post them too. Thanks

im also interested in this aswell.

one question though ive seen a few ppl use some sort of metal around the turbo/dump pipe to cover i think a/c or brake lines in the engine bay. where abouts can u buy this stuff?

coz i was thinking of using this stuff as a sorta heat sheild for the pod as it seems quite flexible.

Thanks for the offer Mark.

Ive currently got the ARC FMI cooler that uses the stock pipes.

p.s Nice GTR btw - If only I had that kind of cash lying around Id snap it up straight away. In my opinion perfect colour.

I was hoping to get a heat shield over the pod to block a lot (not all) of the warm engine air. Just wondering where I would get one (I have seen pictures of some ppls engine bays with them)

I know its not as good as a fully enclosed alum box, but Its better than nothing.

    • And....if that could be true for all R34 GTTs, then it might be good. But in reality it is not really any better than my standard instruction to "go out and have a look at it yourself, and wave a tape measure around" etc etc, because as soon as you have any adjustable arms, or coilovers with smaller diameter springs, or tyres that have any bulge that goes out further than the rim, etc etc, then the simple version of the information is still potentially misleading. Plus, nothing in this is static. Everything is moving. At the rear the wheels swing inward at the top as they go up, so the clearances on the inside change as the suspension is compressed. At the front it's even worse. And then you have the difference in absolute wheel position in the arch can move around more, or less, depending on how compliant the bushes are. If, like me, you have sphericals on the front caster rods (and on the FUCAs also, but these are probably less dominant when it comes to wheel position), then your wheel will swing forward/backward under loads, as well as up/down, as well as steering angle. You end up having the simple numbers with 17 caveats/footnotes for each.

    • Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s
