Hello everyone , I have an r33 GTR and ive had the intercooler rubber where the twin turbo cross over pipe joins to the intercooler pipe just to the left of the air box next to charcoal canister , it's split right the way around and pretty much made my car die in it's ass . I still got it home thank god .

Now I need to get one ASAP !! In Penrith NSW . in willing to drive and pick it up but this is my daily car . It's 100% stock at the moment other then increased boost and oil cooler (n1) .

Someone please help me out and steer me the right way ! I used some cloth tape to get home but it ended up splitting more the before lol .

Checked the F/S section?

People usually wrecking/changing to hard pipe or going single & selling the turbo piping section so you might need to buy a couple pipes/hoses - good for backup though :)

Might not find one "today" however.

I'm also sure you could get them from Nissan, for that kinda item I reckon it wouldn't be too expensive if you can get someone to order it @ Trade.

I don't want a hard pipe kit I want the stock hose. Surley someone here must have a stock hose they have upgraded ?

If you read a little closer I said SILICON not hard pipe, why buy a pipe that is 16or so years old which could then split again. But hey your decision

yeah, nah, i once priced one up from nissan at trade.

apparently the original has been discontinued and superceeded with another pipe, and is worth(if memory serves) around the $370 mark.

post in wanted to buy section, thats how i got helped out.

or go with the black silicon pipe as previously mentioned from just jap...

looks stock, handles more power.

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
