I'll have to contact billy about that and get back to you.

 

Thanks Sam, for your quick response and no hassle or questioning to a part that was missed in my original shipment ordered through Billy.
Have put my rx3 coilovers on since and the car is looking great.

Thanks

 

how are you making out with the SA tank? I am getting closer to going home and money burning my pocket Do you think it will be ready by the end of june when I get home? I really do not want to weld in a sump on the stock one at this time so I figured I would add some pressure

 

damn it! My rear purches are rusted to all hell... I want these ones!

 

I would def buy a gas tank for my 85

 

sell me yours and buy new ones

 

Hello,
Will a Nikki Air Cleaner/Box be in the works? I'd be very interested.
I have a couple ideas.

-Crispin

 

There are a couple ideas for this being tossed around. Nothing finalized yet though.

 

Here's an Idea I would LOVE for that...
Check out the Cold/Airbox for this Turbo REPU.

This could be used for any first gen. Turbo/NA wouldn't matter.
Should be relatively easy to make for you guys.

(I'd probably do a different way of locking the top on, though)

 

I like that air box. My only thoughts:

1) Needs to be easier to get the top off. It would take 1/2 hr. to get to the filter.
2) Looks like they made it pretty heavy. Would be nice to decrease the thickness of the box and lose some of the unneccesary weight.

 

I agree with both points. But I love the placement/design of it.
The intake pipe "Hole" could be placed anywhere for different systems.

I think it's pretty thick/solid because it's the intake on a turbo, it's properly sealed, so
it can create quite a bit of vacuum. The thicker, the less chance for flex.
Although - it probably could be thinner than that one.

 

I would really like an air cleaner that would fit on top of the Nikki carb and allow us to run a piece of round 3" or 4" hose up to the front of the radiator. Basically, an air cleaner that would be able to be combined with this:



To make a cold air system.

 

I would just like to request to see PDF's for installing instructions to be available without signing up for the forum. I wanted to look into a part from there and see how difficult installation would be, but had to sign up. I know it's not too hard to sign up for a forum but I guess I'm just a whiny little girl

 

I'll see what can be done about this. After all every whiny girl needs a lollipop to keep her happy :P lol

 

Another possible customer on the SA gas tank, I think mine is starting to leak at the seam and possibly at the sending unit

 

I'd definitely be interested in the FB tank too, especially if they're for sale by June.
(The oil filler tube too.)
What would you do for pickup and return lines, size wise?
Have you considered selling a modified pickup/return assembly on its own for all the blow-thru project people?

 

+1

you can put a 3" hose on the stock air cleaner, so um you do.

 

Are you referring to the nipples off the oil fill tube? We would most likely do something like the what we have done for the FD tube. One with barb fittings to replicate stock, and another version with one AN fitting.

 

Yeah that's cool if you still have a rats nest but for those of us with no emissions it would be nice to have somethin else.

 

Regardless of emissions though I'm not a big fan or the forced air air box, not when you're autocrossing at speeds under 45 MPH. We need something with a larger round filter, like a 14x3 or even 14x4. That's open. Personally I think the SDJ/Mazdaspeed comp air cleaner assembly is ideal, except, it still uses the small stock filter.

 

i agree the stock air cleaner isn't sexy. in the old days, on the pro7 cars we tried everything, and the stock air cleaner with cold air works best.

 

Yeah I was looking up taller filters for my RB power pulse intake at work but it still can only be 8-10 inches across. But like someone else once said on this forum the open circular intakes are more like hot air intakes sucking up all the engine heat. Would be nice to have somethin about 12 inches across with a 5-6 inch round or oval shaped inlet so that you could run a flex hose to from in frount of the rad.

 

Wait, does this mean us Canadian guys no longer have to go third party through RPM?
Saweeet.

Also, I would advise against setting up a UPS account for the US guys, the prices will go through the roof after it clears customs (we pay~30-45% brokerage/customs fee when when shipping with UPS to import stuff into Canada). USPS is usually 3% brokerage. Just my .02 for those thinking the shipping is slow.

 

RPM kinda went down about a year or so ago I believe, so it would of have been all through RE-Speed.

As for UPS, we learned a couple of tricks about all shipping options. Apparently, if you ship things out expedited, there are no custom charges for either coming in or going out of Canada. Taxes still apply though for items over 200$
