hey screamin...

would there really be much difference with the metal intake pipe compared to the plastic?

and what type of piping did nismo33 use for the funnel...

i think i might spend a day and do the cold air upgrade..

hey mate, i just used an actual funnel i got from super cheap ($3) and the pipe is just stuff from super cheap ($25) and just liquid nails'd it then wraped it all up in gaffa tape and fixed the other end to the body under the pod with a pod filter adaptor and atached the funel to the front bar with zip ties

The pipe I described is from the filter to the throttle body. I just cut a hole in the panel under the filter, the shape of the inner guard pressurizes the air infront of the wheel arch and forces it up the cutout and into the filter. It means no bugs and dirt get forced into the filter, they get splatered on the inner guard.

I used to run a duct up to the filter, but got sick of the filter getting dirty all the time. The cutout worked just as good as the duct in my experiance.

    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later. 
    • Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
