Custom SR Aluminum Intake Pipe Kit group buy! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Pepperoni · 09-09-2005, 08:11 PM

Finally!! A solid aluminum polished intake pipe for your SR20DET!

This 2.5" aluminum pipe has a fitting for both catch can and for recirculating your BOV. The sweet thing is that since it's a solid aluminum pipe, you can definitely hear your BOV - which is one thing most people would lose when recirculating with the stock rubber intake pipe. I use a Greddy Type S bov and it's still really loud recirculating. All I used to hear was air wooshing when i used to use the stock rubber intake.

You'll definitely hear and feel the difference between this pipe and stock. PLUS you'll be able to hear your turbo more - help it breathe and hear that baby spool

Here are some pictures--
Pic 1

The intake kit will come with Option Racing couplers and clamps, hose for catch can, two brackets you may choose to use for bracing, and your chosen polished aluminum intake pipe.

Pic 2

Here's a comparison pic between the aluminum pipe and stock rubber pipe. The stock one looks bigger but that's because it's standing on the catch can fitting.

Pic 3

Here's my intake that i've been using for over 1/2 a year. And no, the MAFS plug isn't touching the hotpipe...I need to cut a zip tie to give it some slack :P

Important
Please contact me first to check on availability before ordering, just in case.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me or PM me. Thanks

Custom Options and Pricing: You have three choices when choosing the intake pipe:
These prices all include shipping (which costs about $10-12)
T25 or T28 Stock Turbo Intake Kits
Kit 1 -- Intake pipe with just the fitting for catch can: $60 shipped
Kit 2 -- Intake pipe with fitting for both catch can and BOV recirculation: $70 shipped

Top Mount Turbo Intake Kit -- I decided to include this because a few people asked about it - 90º Intake Pipe for top mount turbos - with your choice of fittings:
Kit 1 -- Just the pipe, no fittings: $45 shipped
Kit 2 -- Catch can fitting only: $50 shipped
Kit 3 -- BOV recirulation fitting only: $55 shipped
Kit 4 -- Both catch can and BOV recirulation fitting: $60 shipped
If ordering the 90º pipe, let me know where you want the fittings/bungs to be put on the pipe. Everyone's setup is different, so please let me know.

If you have a Z32 MAFS, I also offer 3" - 2.5" coupler reducers. If you want one, add $6.50. eBay offers them for $9 shipped so I think this is a decent price. As for those of you who already have the pipe and/or just need the coupler, PM/email me your zip and i'll give you a price.

These are about 1/3 to 1/4 of the price of more expensive kits out there, which don't even have the bungs for recirculation or catch cans!

Some things to keep in mind before ordering:
1- I've test fit these on a couple of other people's cars, and they fit great! Keep in mind that depending on what size your air filter and MAFS is, this intake pipe may or may not need to be trimmed at the ends. Since it's a solid piece, unlike the stock intake, you can't really bend it around for adjustment. When test fitting, everyone got theirs to fit by adjusting it via the couplers; push the couplers in more or out more to give the air filter more room.

2- The reason I believe that no manufacturer makes these pipes is because everyone's BOV is mounted differently. I use ER's hotpipe w/Greddy BOV flange. My BOV sits closer to the radiator than say, the stock mid-piece w/BOV.

Since these are all custom, make sure you let me know where your BOV is located. Generally, I've been putting the bungs in the location (see pic 3). My BOV is around the area where (on the stock hotpipe) the middle coupling is. I can put the recirculation bung further down the intake pipe if you have the BOV welded onto the stock hotpipe. It will be estimated (better if you take a pic and send it to me). I can't guarantee you it will be 100% perfectly lined up with your BOV outlet (even though thats where the flex hose will be used to connect the two).

Since these have yet to be made for everyone, it will be first come, first serve. General wait time will be about a week before shipping it out, at most.

I prefer PayPal but will accept Money Order, however those who are able to pay first will be put first on the list.

PayPal email: [email protected]

Again, be sure to tell me what kit you want, where your BOV is mounted, and anything else I should know. Tracking information will be provided.

Thanks

hey man, thx for PMing me about this!
Count me in!

Kit 2 is what I'd want for a stock setup yes? (cept my greddy BOV is recirc'd)

You should receive my pay pal momentarily! Thx!
Plz PM me when you receive it (and hopefully answer my question :P hehee)

Pepperoni · 09-10-2005, 02:46 PM

Thanks Yoshi, check your email, i'll do my best to get the bung welded exactly where you want it

iMAGE976 · 09-10-2005, 05:12 PM

OoooOo i've been waiting for something like this...count me in!

drifter_e · 09-10-2005, 05:24 PM

thanks for pming me on the up date i should be paypal you within the next two week (had to do a new clutch and headgasket so money is tight right now.... any way im interested in the stock setup Kit 2 -- Intake pipe with fitting for both catch can and BOV recirculation: $70 shipped, HOw much with out the coupleing or clamps i have tons in my basment and have no need for them... also i would need the bong welded back a little more snice my bov isnet facing down or up its to the side, heres a pic so you know what i mean...

Pepperoni · 09-10-2005, 06:05 PM

drifter_e, is that a custom hotpipe? if you could, it would be great if you took the picture from the sideview. Basically, standing by the driver-side fender facing the engine and taking a pic, that way, I can do a better estimate of where to weld....and i could try tilting the bung toward the left more so the hose wouldn't end up in a 90º angle.

The whole purpose of trying to get the bungs welded as close to the BOV as possible is to increase the sound of the BOV. We all know the hoses decrease the sound. Although, some people don't really care about the sound as much as they do about the fact that it's a solid pipe instead of a flexible rubber one

NZO · 09-11-2005, 02:37 AM

For anyone who knows how much the apex/samco/sard etc versions of these are this is a gangster deal. Ill probably pick one up even though I have zero need for it haha.

ballr858 · 09-11-2005, 02:52 AM

count me in. stock turbo intake kit #2. i'll take a picture of the hotpipe tomorrow so u can see my setup.

Tenchuu · 09-11-2005, 01:08 PM

well I'l be in for a kit 2.......if you still have an open spot around the 17th or 18th..... Damn tickets. Oh yeah and just to say i asked, they should have no problem mounting on a S15 engine right??

Projekt_Sil80 · 09-11-2005, 02:26 PM

Also interested in stock kit #2, I'll be sending MO so PM me with your Info

Project D · 09-11-2005, 05:59 PM

I am def. interested. It would look more uniform.

Pepperoni · 09-11-2005, 07:35 PM

Thanks NZO.

Tenchuu, I'm not positive if they fit on an S15 since non of the people who i test fitted these for had an S15 engine, but i think it will work if it has identical stock intake pipe as S13/S14. Send me a pic of your set up and maybe i'll get a better idea of what you're working with.

Projekt_Sil80, sent you a PM.

I could send you a pic, but it is still on a boat in the pacific right now.... I'm just picking up parts and getting ready

95zilvia · 09-12-2005, 04:04 AM

When will these items be ready to ship out?
And when you mean "catch can fitting".. how big is the fitting? will it fit my greddy catch can hosing?

Pepperoni · 09-12-2005, 11:10 AM

Tenchuu, i'm pretty sure you won't have much trouble adapting it

95zilvia, you pay, I make it (give me about a week, at most), and send it out. The fitting is about 3/8" and you should have no problems getting it to work with your hosing.

Slidin240Wayz · 09-12-2005, 01:47 PM

Can you do it witout any bungs? Please PM me.

Pepperoni · 09-12-2005, 02:41 PM

Some people have asked for an intake with no fittings. As of right now, I'm not offering one with no fittings. If there's enough interest, maybe I'll keep it in mind for the future. I suggest to those who want a bung-less intake to buy stock intake kit 1 and use a plug on the catch can fitting. I use this plug that actually came with my catch can:

95zilvia · 09-12-2005, 03:36 PM

Or you can buy that intake for the sr20det on ebay. It's not as well priced as this one!

here's the link!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3-SR2...99627508QQrdZ1

I'm gonna be ordering an intake from u pepper, once i get my RT-615 tires mounted!

That intake requires MORE modification (moving dip stick, cutting turbo inlet pipe), and doesn't offer ANY BOV/catch can bungs. Mine requires no modification of your stock parts, if any modding at all.

powerls · 09-13-2005, 12:29 AM

Will this intake work with a 2871 on a MR mani? I plan on keeping the recirc as well. How will fitment be?

I *may* be able to make a pipe for you. How about you send me a picture of your turbo set up so I can get an idea of whats involved?

Rusker · 09-13-2005, 04:48 PM

hold one for me.. I need to figure out what fitting I need.

autobahNESSA · 09-13-2005, 11:15 PM
