Hey guys, Im jst about to purchase a pod filter kit for my r34 gtr, now i was going to go with apexi's kit but i was curious to the other brands such as hks, blitz, trust etc

My stock airbox is fine for power with an apexi panel filter but i would like a louder induction growl and i like the asthetics aspect too so im not just after wank factor.

I would like some pics of various setups if people have them and perhaps some feedback to their quality etc

here is one that i quite like; can anyone identify the brand for me?

Std airbox works great at dissipating reversion back through the AFM's - plus its internally bellmouthed. I wouldn't think it would be a restriciton up to about 300awkw. If your going to go the wank factor though get the domed pods -HKS I think as they flow and do the above.

380rwkw on Snowmans car (stock airbox) :laugh:

You'd loose power putting pods onto that car for sure!

That first pic is of a set of M's - exactly the same as I have on my GTR. Fantastic induction note, great bellmount design and look great.

Good thing is you can get K&N replacement filters for them cheap. I have enslosed mine and included a perspex lid for the best performance and visual appeal.

I cannot believe i just read that myself... Im praying its some bad wording but i just cant see it...

You pop your bonnet off its primary while driving?

Man, you might have owned turbo cars, but you honestly have NFI and its pretty clear.

Your lucky the bonnet hasn't flung up and smashed your windscreen and destroyed the roof... and potentially killed YOU and other motorists when a windscreen of glass potentially hits your head.

Its gotta be one of the silliest & most dangerous things i've read on this forum in YEARS.

I can understand how your first reaction is based on emotion but im actually very upset at your response.

the bonnet will not fly open, physics will not allow it unless you are going an excessive speed.

you are seriously.. someone very f**king stupid with to much money. you dont deserve that r34. do you actually understand wat your saying?

Dont worry about some people on here, Its like they have fun putting people down.

They could of said it in a nice way, Like mate you shouldnt do that it can fly up, But no they say it to put you down dont take it to hurt.

I thought forums where in place so people can share and learn ideas.

Edited by Rav

sorry to put it so harshly dude but seriously think about it its a very very f**king dangerous thing to do and its not just your safety its everyone else around you that is at risk when you do it.

if your having over heating problems look into an oil cooler thicker radiator new engine fan or ANYTHING except popping the bonnet while driving.

lol this is pretty funny, since its on a car forum.

Johnny your personal problems are not funny but this isnt the place to talk about them and you cant expect people you have never met to be understanding.

This forum is for sharing ideas and knowledge of skylines, so if someone makes fun of your ideas or doesn't agree with them its up to you whether you want to listen to them or not.

mate it's the internet, get over it - if i posted on an electricians forum that i used a fork to get my toast out of the toaster i'd expect a similar response. if you can't handle constructive critisism and it upsets you to this degree you probably shouldn't be on here...

all I can say is haha at Johnny, man whoever told you that shit about the secondary catch being manufactured for strength etc, (it is a secondary safety mechanism and not to be used as the primary, that's why they have the primary) was probably jealous of your car and wanted you to screw it up.

There are much better ways of sorting out the cool air issue (eg remove your right hand headlight and install and aftermarket intake etc.... but I am not sure why you are having overheating problems at night.....????

I have a set of M's intake pods and they sound and look the part

but if someone told me I would get better performance by putting them in a chamber of somesort then I sure as hell will.

Can someone tell me if the fibreglass verses plastic verses stainless airboxes are all on par with eachother for keeping the hot air away??

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
