Hey guys

Im new to typing on skylines Australia i made this account 2 years ago when i was 15 so it seems dead i just didnt have a skyline to talk about .... now i do :ninja: .Anyway im looking at getting a Apexi power intake and like a bit of WOOSH. I know sticking the pod in and enclosing it is the whole deal with N.S.W but i want to know if there is a way where i can bring on the sucking sound with my N/A (dosnt have to be heard down the street 100m im just looking for enough so if i hit the accelerator you can hear it :D )

Hit me with the ideas?!?! :D

Thanks

Andrew

you wont ever hear it on an n/a as much because there isnt a turbo sucking loads of air

if you have an aftermarket exhaust you have no hope of hearing the pod..

What are you on about?!!!

The induction on an N/A Skyline can make a heap of noise. The induction on mine fair screams and drowns out Hoondah's as you pass them. My exhaust is aftermarket too...

It'll make more noise if you crank the timing up, your 2.5 can make more power than that, my 2.0 does.

On the filter/induction thing, do a search, there are heaps of threads around here on it.

You'll hear it.. It will reverberate within the box..

Its to do with frequencies.. I dont fully understand it.. but the volume will be amplified within the box once it reaches it resonating requency.

Thats what I would think so anyways.. but i could be completely wrong.. ;)

Pods are quite loud anyways and I dont think you'll have any problems hearing it..

exactly - thats what a lot of the noise is on worked high power n/a v8s and hipo n/a 4 cylinders

the snarl of the throttle opening up and sucking in masses of air.....

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
