Not a snorkel but the box behind it: the Radius Fabrications NEW-AIRBOX-TO-SUIT-NISSAN-GU-PATROL-UPDATED-POD-TD42 is a custom pod-filter-style air box built for the Nissan GU Patrol TD42 engine. It's the under-bonnet enclosure that houses the filter and feeds the intake, rather than a panel filter dropped into the factory case.

What is a pod-filter air box and what does it do?

An air box is the sealed enclosure that holds the air filter and channels intake air to the engine. This one is a pod-filter-style design, meaning it's purpose-made to wrap a cone (pod) filter inside its own housing rather than reusing the standard panel-filter case. The point of enclosing a pod is to keep hot under-bonnet air away from the filter while still giving the freer-breathing layout that owners chase on the TD42. It's a fabricated part made to suit the GU Patrol engine bay, so it sits where the original air box did and connects into the existing intake tract.

Will it suit my GU Patrol?

It's listed to fit the Nissan GU Patrol with the TD42 engine. The TD42 is the older naturally aspirated and turbo 4.2-litre diesel that ran through much of the GU range, and this box is shaped specifically for that bay and intake layout. Because it's a fabricated, vehicle-specific item rather than a universal pod, confirm your exact Patrol build and engine variant with the workshop before ordering so the housing and pickup line up.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits and checks induction parts like this in-house in the Illawarra. Fitting a custom air box means removing the factory case, mounting the new box, seating the pod filter and confirming the ducting and any sensor connections sit cleanly. Detailed dimensions aren't published by the supplier, so we confirm the build against your vehicle on the bench. The RRP is $790.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.

Common questions

Is this a snorkel?
No. It's a custom air box that houses a pod-style filter for the GU Patrol TD42. A snorkel raises the air pickup; this is the enclosure that sits in the engine bay behind it.
Does it come with a filter?
The filter and detailed inclusions aren't published by the supplier. Confirm exactly what's in the kit and what suits your TD42 with the workshop before ordering.
