i would have thought most pods styles make a loud sucking noise. my hks one certainly does.

ive been told by my xr8 ute owning friend that all he can hear behind him is this tremendous sucking noise and then a howl as i rocket past hehe

i guess that means i need to remove my muffler!

they all go 'wooosh' some go 'wooooooosh' and many go 'woowooowooosh'

you'll be inside the car listening to your music anyway, so what does it matter?

well i wanna give the people out side it some fing to listen too.. thanks for the demonstrations tho woooooosshhhhh

they won't be able to really hear it unless the bonnet is open anyway.

they all make the woosh suction noise, just go with any.

for the record apexi filters the best, don't know sound wise.

a search should bring up alot of discussions on pod filters/panel filters... you might even find some sound clips from memory. try that.

WOW!.. your technicalities amaze me!.. :laugh:

I cont say about six cylinders.. but when i had one on my pulsar.. at about 3K it sounded similar to a rex..

strange.. I know..

cool?.. you bet!

It was some cheapo brand of filter but made a considerable difference!

i have a apexi DI dual pannel forced pod filter and it gives a considerable amount of sucking noise, but what i'd call loud! i had a FORCE FLOW pod on my vp commodore and it was so loud even on idle.

WOW!.. your technicalities amaze me!.. :wave:

niceeeee im just going to stick with blitz.... i wanna ask some one wif a blitz pod on an r34 to see if the suction sounds good or not coz if i dont get blitz i think im gonna go k&n or apexi

well there the best 3 filters on the market i say

wrong.

When Im home next.. Autosalong mag did a filter test.. they took something like 14 filters.. from the ceapest being $15 to the top end $180 one.

Wanna know a funny fact?.. The best over all flow and filter reading came from a cheapo one..

http://www.mkiv.com/techarticles/filters_test/2/index.html new it was here somewhere...

suppose they do not take into account the shitter brands and some other good ones but this is why i use APEXI!

while that may be true cris, the best flow doesn't necessarily mean best filtration. that's the filter's job, if you want good flow then don't run anything at all.

serious? there was a thread on here showing the comparisions? apexi won?

for the record apexi filters the best

*ahem*

according to that comparison, apexi is the best compromise between flow and filtration.

    • This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.
    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
