GQ TD4.2 -T alternate airbox options???

[sidewayz]

yeah crankcase breather will need to be plumbed back into the intake sumwhere between the air filter and the turbo. for example, in those pics you could weld/braze a barb fitting the the steel adapter that conects the airbox to the intake silicon pipe.

i to have jus picked up a zd30 airbox and wil be installing it into my gq td42 this week. wil let you know how i go, but looks liek it wil be all sweet.

the other good thing about the zd30 airbox is because how common the zd30 is it makes them about 1/4 of the price that people want for a td airbox.

[AJS]

I'll be running a catch can (as do most people). You shouldn't plumb it in where you are suggesting as the turbo will pressurise back down the breather pipe.

Sounds fair, thanks. What's the benefit of a catch can?

Do you have dual batteries?

[sidewayz]

nah i dont, but i wil have in the future. the gq this zd30 airbox came out of had dual batteries though. it was an arb tray and did require some trimming apparently.

[blackmav]

Some extra pics without the normal engine bay clutter.

Everthing lines up really well.






Even the three bolts under the box go straight into excisting GQ holes. Too easy. :armsup:Under the guard.

[ROGQ]

Are the replacement air boxes that you get with gq turbo kits as restrictive as the td42t ones... If so i might invest in a 3lt one.

[rotate_gq]

You could always use an aftermarket air housing. We sell these at cummins (fleetguard product) and there's a variety of different ones available. i'm looking at a straight forward 3'' in 3'' out for the turbo conversion on my rb30 patrol.

[bogged]

thats an airbox.

The ZD30 airbox bolts straight in to a gq with a tb42e. I ahd to move my carbon canister but i now have room for another battery!

[coxy321]

Ok guys. The time has finally come to order my ZD30 airbox as my hunt for a second hand unit has bared no fruits.

My contact at the local dealership needs part numbers - can anyone post up the part number/numbers for the box??

Is there any differences between the different series GU's that i should be wary of??

Thanks guys!

They work at nissan dealership and cant look up an airbox? Or is this a generic dealership selling everything?

No, its a proper dealership, but if i go in and ask for an airbox for a GU, they'll get confused because i drive a GQ. One of my riding buddies is 2IC there, and its just going to be a lot easier/hassle free and less chance of a fcuk up if i just say "Here's the part numbers, order it."

[LOCKEE]

Might be interested in swapping a two month old 3 litre GU Airbox for an 80 Series 4.5 Airbox.

Nah, not Echuca, although i get the feeling that this problem is not isolated. I ended up finding the part number myself and ordering it like that.

For reference in this thread: P/N: 16500VC10A, RRP$412.33, i paid $350.00. That ia a complete airbox assembly including filter and the little plenum.
