Hi Guys,

Just wondering who has one installed in their car? I would like to purchase one and install it as the stock rubber one is likes to collapse in summer and restrict boost. I've used the silicon ones as well, not really a fan.

Below is the one by Performance Wise, it's half the price of the Apexi Suction Kit but is laid out slightly different, so I am afraid of fitment. Not too sure how it would fit.

Does anyone have one of these fitted to their car? photos would be great!

OR if someone wants to sell me their Apexi Suction Pipe, I'll buy it for the same price of the one below :yes:

Ive got the Apexi kit which I bought from Paul (Performance Wise) and the one above looks almost the same. Send Paul an email or PM and ask him. He is a really honest, top bloke who I have bought almost all of my parts from over the years and he has NEVER led me astray.

He will tell you the difference, they do make a little more induction noise though. Let me know if you want pics of the Apexi kit

hi mate,

Yeah I did send a message to Paul on eBay lol

He told me to post it up on SAU and ask you guys if anyone is using one.

From what I've seen, the Apexi Suction kit is very different, the BOV return and the cam cover line is placed differently.

:(

Not sure if this helps out, but this is what the suction kit comes with for an R33 GTS - I didn't have a picture, so just copied one from a website.

The suction kit uses the black hoses to join up with the original ones, which insert into the OEM rubber intake.

So the performance wise kit should do the same I assume.

Ive got the performance wise kit, and its tops.

fitted it up when I installed my GT30r turbo

Hey Tangles, could you post up a photo of it and where you've plumped back the lines?

Can you still install this sort of piping with the factory airbox?

I don't think so....but I could be wrong...? Looking at mine...I don't think it will line up and fit...

it will not line up unfortunately, the original turbo intake pipe has more bends than that pipe. I've already installed a airbox partition I bought from Hi Octane Racing, great fit cheaper than other places. I picked it up from their showroom and I told them I was from SAU and it cost me $80.00 what a bargain!

Cheaper than a few other suppliers.

Tangles!

got the photos yet buddy?

......... and on this topic, I've damaged the mesh on my AFM, it's disrupting air flow measurements and the car is knocking quite hard.

I've got a highflow stock r33 turbo.. doing 235kws... running 17high boost and 14low boost now if i put this in and replacing my OEM pipe... would this make any diffrence? people are saying the stock pipe gets sucked in and closed...

cant say i felt or heard much diff with the standard turbo. but let us know how it goes geraus. mines decided it wants to stay in a spot where it rubs on someting and make a farking annoying squeking sound.
