i wouldn't use an apexi.

i had 1 on my GTS-t and i was cleaning the AFM every month. i bought a $15 pod of ebay and didnt clean it for about 3 months... sprayed the AFM with electra clean and not a single black drop came out! to bad they dont make kits for GTRs :blink:

on the other hand i cant find replacement foams for my hks pods :blink: i call around on monday :)

I'm considering new airpods since my M's have the oil spitting problem which periodically requires I clean the AFM's.... keen to find out what the best pair I can get for 80mm/z32 diameter tubing, but apexi look decent enough... what actual model did u have joel?

the mushroom types :blink:

you can squeeze the stk tubing over the Z32s its just the pod kit you need to buy to suit the larger flange.

to upgrade to Z32s and new pod kit itll be close to $1000 bucks :blink:

yeah its something i'll keep in mind - i'll need to eventually upgrade my afm's and if I do that I dont want the current pods oiling up the electrodes, so I may as well upgrade to the 80mm filter...

anyhow that can wait till I get my turbos. after that i'll see how much leeway my injectors and afm's have before I need to replace them

I've got a HKS pod filter (with filter) and spare filter still in packet lying around my shed somewhere I think. I clean it out not long ago and binned a handful of items. Might still have it.

sweet as ruby if u end up finding it hit me up :P

Ben your injectors will start maxing out at about 270-280 kws. your AFMs should be good for about 300-320kws tho.

i think i might change my AFMs just because these old nissans ones are old as shit and on their way out.

very good find there Chronic :banana:

lol Joel, as Andrew said, I was thinking of shutting this thing down but it's actually turned out to be a wealth of info.

I always knew K&N had a good product (through dealings with bikes).......that other brand seems the goods to.......I'll have to remember that name.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
