this is my cold air intake on the stock airbox.

Basically I just removed the stock snorkel and replaced it with a 50mm flex pipe. (I have a lot spare if anyone's interested). Took me about 30 minutes or so.

very similar to my setup, except i attached the end of a funnel to the pipe that sits down next to the intercooler hose!

next step is probably that on my car...

Anybody have any ideas of whether its a good idea to block off the stock entry, or keeping that as well as a secondary?? I am thinking of cutting a circle (proper circle this time :thumbsup:) in the bottom of box, and running hose through the old intercooler piping hole to front bar. But not sure whether I should leave, or block off the front (stock) hole.

Will one "port of entry" so to speak result in more air getting sucked into the box? or will 2x holes result in more flow?

i cut open the stock hole as a secondary entry

then i cut a hole in the bottom of the stock box and ran a pipe up the stock intercooler holes into this hole and attached it there with cable ties and sealed it off with silicone

then i attached the other end for ram air and put the funnel on it

I will be glad to show you, gordon if you are up in brisbane one weekend...

      Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
