Recently brought one of these second hand for my 32GTR and am yet to install it but had hoped to keep my ARC airbox

and install the piping to it was wondering if anyone had managed this feat as a quick look has me thinking it wont work.

Kit came with Z32 sized filters but only one adapter plug so I suppose I could get another plug and run Z32's might eventually need to anyway

as am also installing 2530's so might be getting a bit much for stock AFM's

Also does anyone know if the NS-01 filter adapters would fit on the Airinx AY-SB filters as this may be a quick fix for my problem

would of liked to have kept my ARC Box though :)

Any one got a review of the Airinx filters or comparison test? Remember reading one a while ago that rated Apexi filter real high cant remember if Airinx ones were included in the comparison though?

this is the kit I am talking about

Its quality gear & quality costs

I doubt you could get piping fabbed up that would be cheaper and the pipes in this case appear to be cast not just welded tube

each to his own, I of course didnt buy new either.

Anyone confirm if the AFM swap is likely to be neccesary with HKS 2530's, if the stockers are likely to small I might have to bite the bullet and go Z32's

Just curious, but does it rub on the bonnet like the ones i have seen?

A friend of mine is pushing out 429rwkw on his 32 GTR with that suction kit and filter with no problems, so it can take big numbers, but if it was me id be swapping the filters for Apexi.

Okay for all those interested I can answer my own question regarding Trust Airinx filters

I was digging around trying to find some exhaust gaskets and stumbled upon an old Autosalon issue with a review of air filters

Airinx was pretty average flowing with pretty lousy filtration

Apexi flowed better but actually filters worse

Think I need to find some of the 3a Racing ones wich were the best flowing

and only bettered in filtration by the K&N ones, which being wet (oiled) filters makes em no good with Skyline Afm's

You can't go wrong with Trust, if you want apexi then just buy that one. Personaly i would go for the full hks kit takes care of everything you need. hks kit includes air induction to turbo, piping from turbo to intercooler, intercooler to plenum. Can't beat that. If you going to add 2530 Definitely get the z32 afm. I can post a pic of the trust kit on a 32gtr if you like. All jap brands fit like a glove and quality second to none. Do it right the first time and then forget about it.

snake oil my good man. a map sensor, quality filter, an airbox with a nice big 3''-4'' cai pipe will be just as good, and 'less' restrictive than a afm.

in the comparison test theres only apexi,hks,blitz and k&n and yeah apexi was the best

test is like ten years old and irrelevant, later tests have proved the opposite.... honestley the AIRINX dont filter the best but i havenever had a dusting issue ever... if you are after the best get some DRIFT brand filters... they kick ass over KN and all the jap brands and have been tested lately by both magazines and rival manufacturers.... i know this as there was going to be a lawsuit as drift claimed to flow % more than a big US manufacturer and they did the tests to sue under false advertising/slander.... needless to say the lawsuit kinda died a quiet death :banana:

All good URAS no biggy bout the plug

Yeah that online test is old as the hills

the autosalon one was issue 51 last year when they started building the drift car

suprised me as everyone raves bout the Apexi ones an they didnt test that good

saw that ad with the busted KN filter. any idea how they filter with a dry element?

cheers

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
