Need A Expert On Air Filters

[Mr. Oizo]

it is a direct bolt on

[R34NRG]

it is a direct bolt on

well it may be a direct bolt on, but it doesnt directly bolt on, at least thats what my car says

[Mr. Oizo]

im guessing you werent doing it right

it should bolt on with 4 bolts

go outside, take a pic of your AFM (unbolted from the airbox) and take a pic of the filter

either that, or you bought the wrong filter

its the one for the z32 afm, which i assumed was the universal one

[R34NRG]

there was no adapter with it, it was just the filter, i need an adapter. i had a mechanic who works for an import joint try to fit it, and it don't fit. this guy knows he works on skylines every day

[Craved]

there is 2 gaskets with the filters

the one with square ends is the one you use.

test fit the gasket on the AFM... it will fit

then find the 4 of 8 holes in the pod that they line up to.

it will fit

It fits.

I believe you need the one wioth the part number 500-A022

I am pretty sure thats the one I have and it bolted in no problems. I think you may have bought the A021 version.

[R34NRG]

i dont no how u guys are saying it fits...cuz it dosnt......ill take pics...i even paid a guy 30 bux just to install it...and he couldnt do it.

The Power Intakes come in a number of sizes, with different inlet diameters, and overall lengths. You gotta make sure you get the right one, some will require an adaptor, others (like everyone suggested) will bolt straight up to the AFM. My 2c is telling me you have one of the latter ones.

[R34NRG]

i showed everyone the one i bought and they sai its the right one.....so which is it.....im doing somethign wrong or ive got the wrong filter?

but lets forget about that for the moment. the issue now is where i can can a adaptor

the adapter??? well looks like a normal adapter... ie one part bolts onto the afm via 4 screws and the other part clamps onto the pod filter.

as far as seriel numbers go - matey, GOOGLE is your friend

you may need something like this, for an rb25 of course:

The 021 filter you bought is a bolt on for silvia afm

You need 022 filter for your car.

Forget the adaptor, sell the 021 and get the right one.

[R34NRG]

is there a big difference if i got a rb25det direct bolt on from the one i have and getting a adaptor?
