Apexi Super Suction Kits

[r32heaven]

I was originally planning on getting an Apexi Power Intake kit for my R32 GTR model number APX-018 on the Performance Wise Website http://www.performance-wise.com/. However was aware that these kits will only fit the standard 70 mm AFMs.

In the future I would like to move to 80 mm Z32 AFMs when I install my Power FC so I then considered getting the Apexi Super Suction Kits APX-023, which are specified for 80mm AFMs.

If I were to get the Super Suction Kit, will I be able to fit then onto the standard 70mm AFMs until I am ready to upgrade to the 80mm AFMs? I.e. will I need any additional brackets or fiddling around to make it work or should it just slip in? Also has anyone fitted the Super Suction Kits to their car, and do they have a cool tutorial like the Power Intake Kit to show as well?

Thanks

the kit should come with filters and adaptors to fit the filters to the maf, usualy you can remove the adaptor and bolt the filter right onto the maf...least on the ones ive seen.

the one bass junky had was a 70mm kit but it comes with a reducer to fit the 70mm afm on. so it should fit the 80mm without the reducer on it.

Ok so the Super Suction Kits for the GTR come with reducer kits do they? From the description provided here: http://www.mrsite.co.uk/usersitesv2/perfor...wroot/page4.htm for the APX-023 (right at the bottom of the page) it didn't appear to do so, it just says that it is for the 80mm AFM.

So Bass Junky has fitted a 80mm spec SSK to his 70mm air filters in his GTR before? Any issues fitting it, i.e. wobbly mounting or mismatched bracket holes etc?

Thanks

no bass junky had the r34 gtt kit not gtr

sorry i didnt see you had gtr for some reason

but gtr maf's are 65mm so youll need the 65mm kit to suit the stocker maf's

but if you want to change to z32's later youll need the 70 kit

if you have a powerfc you can use rb25's straight away (70mm kit) and then move to z32s later (both are same OD in mm)

car afm size

=================

gtr rb26 65mm

gts rb25 70mm

300zx vg30 70mm

vh41 q45 80mm
