Hey all, Some of you may have seen this already on Facebook. This is a project that I have been working on for a while and I wanted to see if there would be any interest in the community for sets of these hamster cage air cleaners. These are the original Nismo air intake filter boxes. These "hamster cage" style air boxes were originally used in the safari rally car and was later offered as part of the Sports Option parts catalogue. They are very hard to come by even in used condition and are extremely expensive. The reproductions that are available are not that accurate and are way too expensive as well. I've modelled the assembly as accurately as possible to ensure it will be a true reproduction. I used my NOS set as reference so rest assured the reproductions will be true to their originals. Only minor change I made was to add M3 screws for the filter cage instead of rivets to give access to the filter element. These filter housings will fit Mikuni 44PHH and Weber DCOE 45 carburettors. A triple carb setup requires 3 air boxes, one per each carb. I need at least 20 sets to be made and sold to keep prices low. I am currently aiming to keep it at 600 AUD per set plus shipping (420-450USD plus shipping). This is a very competitive price considering the original air boxes are NLA and used ones sell for quite a sum. Depending on feedback I will consider whether to make them or not and come back with pricing so PM me your interest and questions.
