ISIS Intake pipe is not fitting

[OM3GA]

So i bought an ISIS intake pipe so i could get rid of my stock plastic tuber.

Anyways so i put it in and it hits my power steering feed line, the line that goes from the resevoir to the pump.

Ill try to get pictures up but it seems like there is no way to route the feed line that will actually clear the intake pipe.

I had a similar problem.You can buy 5/8 heater hose and route it over or under.

I have this problem with my stock intake pipe haha. I never had the problem before I took the engine out, but now 2 months later when I put it back in it seems like no matter what way I sin the hose I can fit the pipe in.I might just end up replacing the hose when I install the P/S cooler

You still have the hose going directly from the resevoir to the pump, no?

Odd yeah i may try to get some pics up, however i would rather just buy an intake pipe that fit properly. I thought this was an exact replica of the stock pipe just aluminum.

What other pipes have you guys used that work perfectly? Also how is your power steering feed line routed?

Im not sure how great heater hose would work as i believe you must have a type of ATF resistant line.

[Justin35ll]

Yes, I mean I might replace it with a longer hose so I can route it under the intake pipe.

as for isis and their products fitting, that's 2 that don't fit for me so far.

I had to hack up my shash sheild inside the oil pan to get the oil pan to fitAnd then after that it still wobbled a tiny bit when I layed it down flat on the upper oil pan

[OM3GA]

Oh god thats something i would never do.

Most isis products have seemed like good quality however this intake pipe is not going to work out i dont think.

Im running the project silvia intake with no problems at all.

[jonnyd218]

i had to cut about an inch off of both sides to get it to even fit under the hood! and im not even running W/power steering

[OM3GA]

Damnit, im getting rid of this damn thing.

[mrgreeneyes]

Do that with ALL ISIS products.

PSM intake on zilvia. $60. awesome......

[OM3GA]

Haha seriously the two things i bought from them, their test pipe and their intake pipe!

Is PSM really done with their intake pipe? I havent been on Zilvia for like a day so if its already done then im down as hell.

Quote »Do that with ALL ISIS products.[/quote]haha I wouldn't go that far dude.

Some stuff requires a little persuasion, but for the price I think most of their products cannot be beat. Justin had a problem with his Isis oil pan, but he was able to take care of it. The alternative would have been a $400 Greddy pan. Is that really a bad deal. Same thing with their intake manifold, requires a little work with how the fuel rail hole lines up but is easily fixed with a dremel and that manifold costs 1/3 of the Greddy equivalent.

Moreso, Isis is bringing new products to the market where they were no alternatives. Such as an OE replacement waterpump for the RWD SR. Or OE replacement starter. In the past, you either paid dealership prices or bought used. Instead, Isis brought these new products to the market for the SR community.

I would speak to Isis (Enjuku) and explain to them the problems. Ken and the guys at Isis seem to be very interested in getting the kinks worked out, and I am sure they would work with you on a resolution. Playing keyboard cowboy and bad-mouthing them does not serve any body.

True they have done a lot of good, most of their stuff is decent i just figure ill keep buying top notch items now lol. When it comes time for a starter or OE z32 maf they will be my first choice.
