Installing A Pod Filter

[brainlessnoob]

cool so i bought a pod filter and the adapter plate for my rb20det powered r32 skyline gts-t. Any way i was just wondering where to install it . Inside the airbox(obviously with the old filter element removed, so that it draws some air from the old cold air intake piping)? Or totally remove the airbox and having it sitting where the airbox was?(or will that be to hot) Or make up some really long pipe and have the filter down near my front right guard where my cold air intake is?

Any way any help is appreciated, i tried searching but couldnt find much on 32, only on 33.

thanks

umm you wont be able to use the old airbox with a pod, you need to unbolt it. leave the cold air intake in place and look into making your own airbox out of alluminium sheeting.

wouldnt suggest putting it in the guard.

I dont quite understand, do you mean to prevent heat, or to like funnel the air into the filter? Please explain a lil more about the airbox your talking about, im thick as a plank, i did think these thinks were made to be without a airbox, and if i have to make up a airbox for it then i may as well keep the original filter.

he means build a bigger box to sit the pod in that doesn't let hot air in from the engine, and have a cold air duct to it
