Hi Guys

*Hopefully this is in the right section* Well I need to replace the pod filter in my car before I can sell it, and pick up my new R34.

My only problem is that I got the car with the filter on it, so I dont know what the model numer is. Which tends to make getting a new one a little difficult, I cant find anyone that has any in stock in Perth so I cant even go in and compare.

I know that there are 4 different replacement filters from APEXi, but I dont understand what the measurements, that are given, are relating to.

APEXi 500-A021 - 85mm ID / 160mm OD

APEXi 500-A022 - 75mm ID / 160mm OD

APEXi 500-A023 - 65mm ID / 160mm OD

APEXi 500-A024 - 75mm ID / 140mm OD

Ok sorry about the crappy photo, I just used my phone while working on it yesterday.

Ive measure the opening for the piping and that is 85mm so Im going to assume that the model that i need is the: APEXi 500-A021

Can siomeone please confirm this? I dont want to spend money on a filter that I cant use.

Cheers

Thanks gotRICE? for the reply.

I have taken the filter off, and measured it up. But thats where I get a little confused, the pic that Ive attatched is of (what i think) is the ID and that looks like it is about 85mm.

Does that not mean I need the APEXi 500-A021 - 85mm ID / 160mm OD?

Cheers.

Haha no problem man.

The car I currently have is a 2003 corolla with a 1ZZ FE engine. I know that with the normal piping and box I need a 75mm filter but this car had mods done to it before I got it, so the intake pipe has been made bigger.

    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
    • You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
    • Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
