Gday mate, sounds like a good product, can you put me down for a replacement for the standard rubber hose for an R33 gtst. Is there picture of a prototype that I could have a look at or is there already a picture of it somewhere that I have missed? :headspin: :headspin: :headspin:

Just use a stainless cone reducer of the front of the turbo, ~20ea. So its a 2.5" to reducer to 3" to the afm

Made one up for mine in around 20 minutes, plus time to get it tigged. Really is very easy to do yourself, and cheap.

You made your own AFM pipe?? Hmmm... looks good! What do you think bass junky?

Yes, not practical for most who dont have access to the equipment but is easy once your in a workshop. Looking at cost for a pipe such as that stainless bends are ~$20ea as are reducers. Your looking at needing one 3" and one 2.5" bend for every two intake pipes plus about $5 worth of straight pipe and the cone reducer 2.5-3" plus someone to tig it together. Hope that helps to get the buy under way

Nice, maybe you and bass junky (peter) can compare costings and design work.. just a suggestion. I'm not in any rush, but it's good to share knowledge between people who are working on the same thing! good stuff :(

Hey Guys.

Decieve, Do you have the BOV and PCV return valves in yours?

I'm having those fabricated into my ducts (for those that need them).

Cheers

Pete

Not on mine, had the pcv tho. They add a bit more time and labour to the cost but really only a matter of drilling/cutting the hole and having the welder tig in some tube of a suitable size

HOT DIGGITY DOG!

The prototype is done and I'm going to pick it up today at some stage!

Has to fit it to my car and make sure some things line up, then add some bits to it, but we are on the way!!!!

I'll get some pick and post them ASAP.

:P Great news bass. I haven't done anything but maintenance on my car for months !! Been getting withdrawl symptoms :(

WHOOP

You little ripper, hot diggity dog and all those excited phrases.

I have just picked up the prototype duct.

No PCV or BOV returns yet, I have to refit this one to my car and position them correctly and get them welded on now, but you can see it's on its way.

You'll notice that the rubber duct and the ally duct are a little different, that's because the rubber duct is from an R33, not R34. I used it as an example of the curve that comes off the turbo.

Unfortunatly, I have to go to Noumea for next week, so I wont be able to do anything more on them until next weekend, but now that I have it, it shouldn't be much longer.

CHEERS

BASS OUT

Trust33.

I might give people the option of polishing them at the end, I'll get quotes and let people know the numbers.

I'm just going to either powder coat or anodise mine.
