MHHJ Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Hi all, I have decided to go back to the stock air box and uninstalled the pod filters I had before. No issue taking out the pod filters, just now trying to re-install the stock air box is a bit tricky. Just wondering if I should also take out the AFM's, connect it to the stock air box/Snorkel and then try to fit it all back in. Every where I have read on this forum says its easy peasy and should not take more than an hour. So far I have spent a couple good hours on it and still made little progress! Any advise would be great! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/437810-trying-to-re-install-stock-air-boxsnorkel-r33-gtr/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odium Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 What have you tried so far, and why didn't it work? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/437810-trying-to-re-install-stock-air-boxsnorkel-r33-gtr/#findComment-7173958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge_r34gtr Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Conect the afm's to the airbox first. remove any piping you can re-connect after the airbox is in to ensure you have access to the bottom AFM/intake pipe clamp Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/437810-trying-to-re-install-stock-air-boxsnorkel-r33-gtr/#findComment-7173964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShyBoi Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Should connect AFM to airbox first, fasten the airbox to chassis think there's 4 screws from memory. Then should just need to connect piping to turbos from AFM. Unless they've changed piping when installing the pod filters which could be the problem you're having...? Any pics?

MHHJ Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yep. Did the AFM to Airbox and took out all piping. The problem is now the piping for the AFM at the bottom looks like it might be too small.

MHHJ Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 Yep, deffinitely the piping for the bottom AFM because everything else aligns easily. Does anyone know where I can get this silicon piping unit from???

Count Grantleyish Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Is the piping from afm to turbo factory rubber? If so, it should fit right in, just wiggle about and it'll go in.

Pr0x1mity Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 If its anything like the GTST, connect the AFM's and then bolt the airbox in place. Then connect the AFMs back up to the piping and plug and attach snorkel last?
