Air Filter (not Pod) Arc?

[DaGr81]

i need to keep this car 100% legal now that the cops are hunting us all down like flies on shit....so since i have a front mount cooler on my gtst r33 (over the radiator type) will an arc super induction box fit? or should i invest the time and money into making a fully enclosed custom enclosure for a pod with cold air feed....which way would be most cost effective, and if anyone has got a fully enclosed one (with engineers cert) please let me know where they got it how much for and if theres photos please post it up....

thanks

You in Vic?

If so, then having a POD and a FMIC is illegal regardless of if your "box" it or not.

yeah mate ive got an ARC super induction box, it goes alright bolts straight on, but hard to get replacement filter unless you go nengun but i would go fully enclosed box with apexi pods

yeah so youve got a fmi though right and it fits neat without any extra modifications?

do you think the r32 version will fit the r33? coz i find a used one for 200 bux delivered which is quite cheap then 80 for the new filter for it and were all set!!

boys and gals, i must know whether this is a legal modification or not, as i understand it, its not defectable as it isnt a pod this is all i wanna know someone with knowledge as to whether this is a defect mod or not

He said NSW jabadoo...

anyway, why not use the factory air box?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

ooh... yes he did... yes he did

hehehe, only problem is finding one .... ive tried so many wreckers man all out of stock or people waiting on them (must have been a canary blitz), but then id have to either melt the plastic to refit it due to over the radiator type fmi, or get a plenum....good excuse to get a forward facing plenum but i think the arc will flow better .... maybe i'll keep hunting and get a plenum at the same time...but i just dont wanna do it half arsed and quickly basically all i really wanna know is will the average donut munching, maccas eating (on parra rd homebush in the parking lot of amf bowling before they set up their radar for the night) copper defect me for an exposed panel filter, because technically thats what it is ....
