GU Airbox Question

Is the GU 3.0 airbox the same as the 4.2 turbo airbox? Mostly interested in outlet sizes on the top.

They certainly look the same although I haven't measured them myself.
I was talking to AG Diesel the other day about these and he says they should be good up to 130-140kw.
Thinking of maybe getting one in mine to neaten things up and make some room for future mods.

Thanks- I may wander down to the nearest Nissan dealer and have a look, 3.0 ones are a dime a dozen, 4.2 is a lot harder to find. they are around $500 new from Nissan for both but have different part numbers, probably due to air sensor setups.

There's also a lot less 4.2's manufactured so it's understandable that they're harder to find.
I've heard that the 4.8's have bigger in& outlets. Not sure if it is the same physical size though.

First of all i thought they were both the same 3L and 4.2... and yes the 3L do have the sensors on them however that can be removed.
The 4.8's are massive probably double the size of the 3L/4.2 Units
