Air Intake Ducting

[corsavandal]

Just been looking through the gallery's on here and came accross THIS Can anyone tell me if the blue intake shown is custom or available to purchase from somewhere

Wouldnt mind something like it to feed some extra air to I/K.

I'd guess its just been painted :winky:

[corsavandal]

but its angled to the left, towards an I/K on an IS. The standard one duct's to the top.

That looks like an Aristo to me, not an IS

I would agree that it's an Aristo. It does look like an IS engine but then the fact it has Aristo written on the engine kind of sways me

[Rob's Lexx]

look snothing like a IS engine bay..... :shutit:

[Rikos]

Just a little

[Rob's Lexx]

Just a little

yea...its got an engine in it

[Rikos]

Thats close enough for me :P

By the look of that pic I would say that was Paul's (Norkep) Aristo. Judging by the 2JZ-GTE engine thats in it and also a thread he posted a while back of his engine bay and how he's had some pipe work and covers i.e. the intake pipe, sprayed blue :winky:

Also it looks absolutely nothing like an IS engine bay. Everything is in a different position (apart from engine) and a totally different engine. I would love to find that in my engine bay actually.

Would the Prolex one fit??????

it says its for supercharged one but not sure if it would fit over your piping

[sparkystav]

You can use an IS300 intake.

I used to have one but sold it as i didn't really want it.

Basically looks like the thing you want but fits the IS and is black.

I did this for about £15

[corsavandal]

I know it's an aristo, but i was wondering if there was something 'like' it for an IS.

assuming you drilled a great big hole in the car to run the ducting up from the fog light aaron

[P38Aaron]

:winky:

Very thin metal there, easy to hole saw.

However there is a loom or pipe under there.

[corsavandal]

do you know if the underside is accessable from the wheel arch so i dont cut the loom?

[P38Aaron]

I pulled the wheel arch back a bit, then found it easier taking the fog light out and doing it from the front, did the pilot hole then felt how close i was...The loom is supported pretty close to the inner arch.

[corsavandal]

just dropped both fogs out as one's gone tempramental so this should get me to either replace both or duct from both openings.

I've felt for the cable and found it, i thinks its the fog light cable!? either way i know where it is, just need to decided on size for the hole now :winky:

I want to be doing this soon, gonna pipe half off to break and half to air filter, what is under the metal skin ?? anything important ?

[corsavandal]

just a cable but remover the fog and it's easy to find/feel like aaron said.

Going to duct from the fog opening on that side, then im looking into moving the number plate to the opposite side so it sit's on the corner and filling in where it used to be.
