Hks Twin Air Filters For Rb26 ....

[chances]

Hi,

Considering putting some HKS twin air filters (green foamy ones) on my stock r32 gtr but ive read that the filtering wasnt that good and the engines tend to die after 130,000km from dirt and stuff...

Anyone have any thoughts on this ?

Should I just keep the stock air box ?

The next upgrade is twin dumps and 3" with high flo cat, its already got 3" from the cat back, would the pods make a noticeable difference ??

Thanks Max

I give you some test data for the air filters in Japan. It is up to you believe or disbelieve.

The fine dust test level 6 and 7. This test is shown the air filter that is possible how much catch the dust that 100g. NISSAN Geneuine air filter possible to catch 96 to 99.5% dust. HKS Power flow is 36 to 36%. Dry type air filter is 75 to 85%. Metal filetr type is 65 to 85%. M's filter (6 inchi type) is 94 to 96%.

How much air possible to pass through the air filter? NISSAN genuine air filter is 380, HKS Power flow is 420, TRUST is 400, BLITZ is 450 and M's is 780. This result is shown in Japan about 13 years ago.

just change to a good hiflow panel filter, keep the stock airbox.

If you're looking at pods, Apexi pod filters are the best for air flow and filtration. They are dry type and don't coat you're afms with oil.

Hks don't filter real well compaired to others in a side by side test done some time ago. If you do go pods, any pods, remember to fabricate a cold air box. Don't let the engine suck in hot air.

There's nothing wrong with the standard air box if you use a hi-flow filter and rig up a cold air intake for it.

PS. I want a R32 GTR Air box. If you are interested, I can sell you an Apexi twin pod system with near new pod filters plus spare pods! PM if you're interested.
