Hi all,

I've got a relatively stock r33 (turbo back exhaust) and have been consideirng the following mods:

FMIC (something that would sit under a stock s2 front bar)

POD (with a pod box if i can find one!)

upping the boost 10-11 or so max

As I live in NSW and need rego checks every year I was wondering whether any of these would cause me a problem?

Would I need engineers for any of it? if so what would that roughly cost?

Also anyone think these mods would affect reliablity given that it is my daily driver?

thanks!

You will pass rego with those mods although FMIC and pod wont sit well with PO PO ie they are defects.

You should go for a FMIC that doesnt require any cutting of the battery tray, i think u can get them from Just Jap. For the filter just run a hi flow panel filter or if u are adamant on running a pod run it hidden in the bar

Thanks for the reply.

I don't get that, as if I do get defected don't i go back to the rego check place to get defects cleared?

Yeah really after a fmic that will need little to no cutting to the stock r33 s2 bar or anything else (anyone have suggestions?)

So if Pod is in a proper box (fully concealed) then this should be ok as it is out of view?

cheers

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
