hi guys I have just put 80mm AFM's on my rb26 and wana know how u get away with fitting the pods? I know most GTR after market pod kits are to suite the standard AFM's just wondering if I purchased say 2 x apexi pods to suite an R32 GTS-T they come with the adapter for the 80mm AFM's would these pods fit in the engine bay connected straight off the AFM's? has anyone got a set up like this? or if you have any sugestions to get around this plz let me kno.....

Cheers

regular apexi pods will bolt straight onto Z32 AFMS I think. 90% sure on that. though it may not have them positioned in the right spot.

yeh mate they do bolt up, but as u said not sure how well they will sit in the engine bay conected straight off the afm's

Hi mate can u elaborate a bit mre on that? Is greenline a SAU sponcer, do they have a website, phone number? cheers

Same as Nengun, Greenline and other places... Jap on-line parts suppliers.

Dare i say a search will give you the full details?

And yeah, just get the adaptors... pretty common for people that get the Z32 without realising there is a Nismo option that is bolt-on.

i just used a 3 inch 45 and 90 deg mandrel bends between the the stock ruber hose and AFM's and bolt the apexi filters straght up to the AFM's. had to lengthen the wires for the AFM's though. alot cheaper then buying the apex kits.

hi jake

the easiest true bolt on form is the apexi 80mm super suction kit

its about $500 AUD ish from www.nengun.com and will be around 1 month delivery ETA ish

the kit will include a pair of turbo to AFM ducts to suit the 80mm AFM and bolt pattern

it should also come with clamps and fasteners and a pair of 80mm apexi pod filters

check the list of items in the pack on the nengun site but it should be a true bolt on kit

The Super Suction kit from APEXi reduces the suction resistance from the air filter to the turbocharger. This suction reduction also maximize turbine efficiency 100% and from the filter intake is maximized with optimum piping diameter & smooth & tapered curves.This design increases the air intake breathing capabilities dramatically. In addition, the aluminium molded piping will not deformed at high boost levels (where a huge air vacuum occured inside the air intake piping) as compared to the stock rubber intake piping. In addition to stock air flow meter set, corresponding larger air flow meter sets of varying diameters (90mm, 80mm) are available in conjunction with varying aluminium intake piping in tuning for optimum engine performance.

Thanks mate, appreciate the help.

mate I think ur right on the money! poor mans version of an apexi kit!

you can get the apexi filters cheap on ebay for like 90 each, thats what i did. spent about 40 bux on two mandrel bends and prob 20 on a couple of rubber joiners instead of silicon as they are not under pressure.

Mate I like ur idea alot...does it fit good? sounds heeps cheaper then the apexi kit.

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
