Auto saloon tested 10 pods, as some1 said earlier, here are the rankings :)

AEM flow=9th filter=3rd

Apexi flow=7th filter=6th

HKS flow=6th filter=9th (very poor)

K&N flow=4th filter=1st!!! (i got this one an love it)

Redline flow=2nd filter=10th :D

Simota flow=3rd filter=5th

Tenzo flow=8th filter=4th

3A Racing flow=1st!! filter=2nd!! (the best pod they say.. cudnt find one tho $30 they reckon)

Trust flow=5th filter=7th

Trust imatation flow=10th :( filter= 8th

I found those results very interesting i was going to get a HKS pod but glad i didnt, they also had photos of what they didnt filter and... man thats sum stuff that gets through ;) scary!

hey i have the green HKS mushroom pod. Just cleaned it and oiled it but not sure if you supposed to oil them. Is this bad for my AFM. Seems to be running fine and it has to filter better with just a light spray of oil. Thinking about getting a K&N cause the HKS is way too loud.

oh and also where can u buy replacement HKS foam filters or other good brands like drift and apexi etc?

Cheers

My advice keep away from HKS filters, they no good. K&N is the best air filter ive come across, both pannel and pod.

With my K&N pod i had to get a Drift AFM adapter which was only $20 from autobarn, needed slight driling to the holes so it lined up perfect, but is the closest thing that i could find to fit.

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
