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

Off the top of my head I remeber it to be the cheapo one.. I could be incorrect.. But I definately remeber 1st or 2nd was the cheapo one..

Ill gladly change and take back mywords if Im worng :rofl:

Between getting that TINY bit of better flow and or filtration.. and saving $150.. Id take the cheapo one..

When Im home in 2 weeks Ill re-hash this and publish the findings.. I remeber they did it quite proffessionaly on a flow table with filtration..

How do u rekon a HKS Pod would do???????

suction wise

yeaha a hks pod i know for sure do have a lot of suction noise on them i have heard it on a new skylines, however not to sure on the filtration quality, however i can replace the filter on them easy, off ebay.

hame :sorcerer:

HKS suck loud.. but they suck for filtration wouldnt be such a problem for N.a tho..

A metal pipe will increase the sucktion noise as it resonates the sound. abit pricy tho ;)

get apexi sound cool :O and good filtering.. check the for sale section.. someone has a bling chrome one for sale and a normal one too :(

sorry for repeating myself but do you guys honestly get suction noise on your non turbos because i got a K and N and its not making any noise i just assumed cause its non-turbo but after reading this and your all getting noise,, maybe mines not mounted proberly or something

anyway turbo 33 in 2 weeks lol but still id like to know why mines got NO suction noise

it doesnt sound good cos its an NA.

it sucks, but not in the way you want it to. :D

Just remembered you can buy a "suction kit" for our cars which replaces the rubber pipe. Increase noise quite abit

Suction kit... hmm where would i get my hands on one of them???

Does it come wif a HKS Pod?

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
