Cold Air Box R34 Gtt - Anyone Know Where To Get One To Fit Return Flow Cooler/stock Cooler?


Recommended Posts

I had one but sold it off... It was made from aluminum and had a bolt on lid for easy filter cleaning, suited the turn flow cooler and AFM etc perfectly and the cops were fine with it... Not sure who made it but if u PM me I could dig up some pics for ya?

Assuming thats with a standard turbo and the standard rubber intake piping?

Had this same problem,i bought a return flow cooler from justjap and i looked everywhere for a pod cover box, nothing fits with the standard piping, instead i got a high flow panel filter and found a stock air box, i then made a 3" custom made intake pipe from the standard turbo to the standard afm.

Made from 2x 3" mandrel bends cost me $45 for the bends and a 2.5" adapter for the turbo and a 3" straight bit for the afm took 2 hours, looks stock makes no restriction, and the best bit when i get a atr43 g4 it will bolt up all i need to do is swap the reducer out for a 3" straight piece and i should be in business. definately the best idea for legal and performance angles, i also blocked the standard bov flange off and now it flutters its tits off :)

Ring UAS back and get one of their kits for around $200...

I have one of their aluminium CAI's that fits with the standard piping used for my FMIC (they also do holes for custom piping on request) and it is a nice bit of kit; easy to install and looks great.

Remove the rubber seals from the under side of the bonnet (above the left head light) and around the back of the head light unit where the front opening of the CAI faces. This will ensure plenty of cool air gets in from the front of the vehicle.

Seal off the edges on the hot side with some foam rubber from Clarks and Bob's your mothers brother.:cool:

Since when is a standard airbox on a gtt or gtst better then a pod filter when you are running 250-300rwkw?? I have seen back to back dynos with the airbox loosing 10rwkw from 280 down to 270rwkw.

Not to mention the standard intake pipe is rubbish once you change the turbo, I could not make anything over 250rwkw it would just suck shut.

Hi!

I came up with this solution:

^^ Might as well run a high flow panel filter...

Either way, the filter is boxed up with a CAI...

But if you find, having a pod has better throttle / boost response then what you got there will do you fine.

Yup but only good if you are still running the standard turbo. It is too restrictive if you have larger turbo on.

The issue is making up a custom metal intake pipe that has the 2 ports for pcv and bov breather that also meets the airbox at exactly the right location and angle. When its a pod you have the advantage of not having to be exact with where it sits.

Sounds like Stevoss managed this above, dude you should make a few up and sell em!

sorry i dont have pics of the whole pipe out of the car, i will when i get my z32 afm, all i did was cut 1 so it went up from the turbo with enough space for the second to sit kinda on top and facing the afm and welded it together, mild steel bends 90 degree from my local exhaust place painted black :)

    • If doing that ^, I'd take the idle up valve out and plug the hole in the pump.
    • You can try capping the power steering idle up valve at both ends if it's old. The valve and the intake manifold. That is something that is known to fail in Toyotas with age and it will suck power steering fluid into the intake and burn it in the engine which can cause issues. Then bleed it again with engine off first. Do like 30+ lock to lock turns with the front wheels off the ground.
    • Hi Brent, I am wondering if you ever worked this out? I have upgraded this unit to a newer one and everything works bar the reverse camera, so i really want to know what plugs are what so I can patch the camera through. many thanks in advance Mike
    • Once you have to get up in the morning and be useful, you suddenly value sleep it turns out :p
    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?   or maybe have a restriction somewhere? What is the red circled item, could that be blocked? It i
