Wrong!! In a number of ways. Twin pods are popular but on my RB25DETT in the track car I ran single AFM and single pod, however the stock GTR setup is single airbox and is good enough for my 260rwkw/0-100 in 4.02s.

I did realise that twin setups can be run off a single filter, but AnjoO was aksing about having multiple pods for a single setup - which IMO is pointless, the only real time when having multiple intakes would have a potential benefit is in a twin system.

If you want the loudest pod, the HKS one is the go.

I have one and the induction noise is huge - pity it's one of the worst filters! :D

But then again my pod is shielded so I'm not worried about that. Get a pod and you should always pair it with a box or shield.

i have a apexi pod on my r33 and to be honest after 8 months of driving the car im sick of the induction noise.i have brought a standed airbox and will be putting that on to see if that shuts it up some . the car came with the pod and i have brought the standed box since with a good pannel filter i dont expect to drop power just lose some of the noise i hope

cheers

Heres an idea,....

Get a microphone and mount it under your hood near the STANDARD EFFICIENT and LEGAL filter box

and amplify it through your stereo system so you can deafen yourself and impress all the 14 yo schoolboys waiting for the bus in your area.

SK I think your right!

Yeh well the pod selection is easy the next problem would be heatshielding. All good too put on a pod filter but if its sucking in hot air then can anyone say detonation!! especially on those lovely 40 degree plus australian summers.

man, get the apexi kit from greenline or nengun (check to see which is cheaper)

I got the twin pods on my gtr and they are loud enuff, and as you saw on the website test, the filter the best too.

the noise on a twin setup on a rb26 is much quiter than a single pod on an rb25

PS, I put this thread up there in my Top 20 worst ever questions

LOL sk!

Anyway - I have a LOUD K&N pod filter. I hate it, its too loud.

Anyway I have a custom heatshield, it fits R33. If you want it offer me $50plus $10 postage

Reason for sale - I now have a proper CAI box, from Maxx.

I also have a standard R33 airbox (no snorkel) with brand new B&N panel filter for $100 plus post if anyone is intrested.

to make a pod legal (in qld anyway) all you need is a fixed mount for it, for example a bar than comes from the adapter plate to one of the stock airbox mounts.

i have a front mount and can't run the stock airbox as i can't use the snorkel, so the airbox just sucks hot air, but i have a cold ait feed to the pod from the front bar, up through the empty intercooler hole.

having the pod partioned is only good if you have a feed to it. if you just have it partitioned off with no air feed to it then you will lose power.

i plugged the recirulation hole in the stock bov and that cut down a slight bit of induction noise. if you want a pod with minimal noise go for a k&n with the power intake top (the flat top one). i have had one before on my 180sx and it made no induction noise, and i'm veen in a skyline that had one with no noise, but it did have a slight partition. i will have to ask him if he has nosie now that he has put a hks filter on to see if is just the partition.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
