Skyline Optional Extras

I'm just curious what factory options were available back in the day? For instance, my 1994 r33 gtst has a front mount intercooler and I have no idea what brand it is and where it came from. The guy I bought the car off had it imported with it. Is there any chance it came from the factory? I also have impul bucket seats. I know impul are associated with a lot of nissan cars, any chance these came from the factory?

The reason I ask is I want to put on a Apexi pod and it's apparently illegal to modify two cold air intakes in Victoria because it raises exhaust emissions (can somebody verify this?). But if the cooler came as an optional extra i could argue, should it ever arise, that I have only modified one intake (as the cooler would be stock).

Any advice would be appreciated

GTS-T come from Nissan with a side mount intercooler.

An aftermarket front mount intercooler would have been installed by the previous owner = 1 intake mod in VIC.

So don't bother installing an air pod.

The stock air box and the panel filter inside is decent enough for about 200+ kW's.

Go for a high flow panel filter if you want but the stock one is still fine... Maybe give it a clean if not done so... :D

Your Impul seats would have been an aftermarket item as well.

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.

      Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.

      Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".

      Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
