Is that series 90 deg pipe going into the top of the box?

Do you buy, tart up and sell em??

yup it is
naw just like modgin

pics!
before..

during..

after!



and i found an airfilter off my motorbike this morn... think its abit small but it will do for now!

will just have to listen out for the pipe collapsing..

tried to fit the old airbox but cant see how it will fit! will have to study your photo again oil dripper.


also, if anyone else is wanting to do the swap.. i strongly recommend swapping the flywheel housing over (make sure you change the crank oil seal tho, and hopefuly it wont leak!) it was so easy, and didnt have to mess about tapping holes or anything!

Stick a snorkel on and be done with it.

get an airbox of the 200 tdi disco and just put it on its side in front of the heater box, that should work

Top banana! I'd do the same and swap out the Turdodiesel but wifey won't let me, she'd rather I got another 'tank car' thats already been done so she doesn't have the 'mess' (dead disco) on the drive. All I got to do is pay for it. Something wrong there I thinks?

That's the plan! But I need an airbox to put the filter in!

Good work mate.

Edit: rear crank oil seal isn't leaking, it was the old fuel filter, changed today - dry as a bone! It was dripping down onto the flywheel housing and running round.

Pic would be good if poss mate! I'm in abit of a rush as I have nothing! Cheapest universal one is 28 quid in halfrauds.. Alot to spend as a temp measure!

I might do abit of pump tweaking after iv made sure the engine is good! I do alot of miles tho, so not sure on the mpg side of things!

Defender 50th V8 nas air box with filter & sensor | eBay
was one of these with the long end cut off to suit pipe size...and also the other end was cut and adapted.....Then a round clamp was made that held the box in the middle then bolted to the engine where the aircon bits would normaly go...have been raiding my pix but cant help sorry...

But why when theres no need to remove the original?

The original seems miles off on mine! Will have to have another play around.

Anyone else find that the exhaust turbo elbow hits the footwell..? I knew they were close but can hear mine tapping at the right revs now..

Came out twice for some reason!

Good work mate, looks really neat.

My downpipe is close to the footwell, but doesn't touch. Landies being hand built as they are, each one is going to be slightly different.

This is how my airfilter is situated, pics aren't much good but you should get the idea;

That looks pretty neat, have you used the td air box? Not sure if mine had that right angle on top..

Think il have to work something out to stop the exhaust tapping the footwell!

Where's your cyclone breather Langers?

Nope that's the one from the Disco, hence the angled bit on top.

I had just put filter back in after that pic, normally it attaches to the filter, on the underneath of the plastic elbow.

Right il get meself one of them, how have you attached it??

What was wrong with using the td filter Karlos?
