replacement box filter


Recommended Posts

I have a K & N Filter in my R33 and as mentioned it is the same as the VN-VS Commodore one. The product code to look for is 33-2031-2.

I replaced my HKS pod for the stock airbox and K & N panel, and I find it just as good if not better as I never had a CAI and was sucking in hot air.

i've never read anywhere that it is illegal to have a pod filter in victoria. all i read was that it is illegal to have more than 1 mod done to the air intake ie. pod filter and BOV.

true i have heard of the EPA stopping people if it is too loud but if the noise is contained, it is legal, right?

and finally, BOVs are a legal item aren't they?

Got my replacement drop in fiter. Like Daniel said, it is the K&N 33-2031-2. Fits perfectly. Autobarn has it on special currently for $109 (normally $129).

Haven't noticed much of a performance gain...yet. Probably should let the ECU adjust to the extra air over the next 2 days before I comment. It's definitely running smoother and making a sweet noise when under boost though.

Thanks to all for your feedback.

    • It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair
    • The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It’ll be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol
    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
