Question: KURE skyline hood

I'm working on the KURE skyline right now, which, being a Nismo R33, does not have engine detail. However, on the box art, it seems to show 2 pipes (possibly for the IC) running under the very big hood scoop. However, these parts are not included in the kit. Just wondering if anybody has a good pic of these pipes (possibly on the real car) or an engine detail shot of the real car. I'm having a tough time finding pictures of this car... too much GT2 junk when you search for KURE skyline.

Thanks.

Down in the "hood scoop" you can see little black arches... those are the notches where the piping seems to run through...

Don't know why but never found any JTCC engine pistures... maybe I'm searching like a jerk but it could be very useful for me too... NSX, R34, 350z...... So if someone jnow a place... let us know.

The notch on the left side of the car(view from driver) is a "pipe" that run from the compressor to the IC.

Thanks!! Any pics?

IIRC, there's also a second pipe there, right beside it. Do you remember this? They're basically flush mounted side by side. But it's pretty difficult to get an idea of size from what I saw.
