I ran a ryco panel filter and made upwards of 300rwkw.

Recently dropped in a BMC panel filter; induction is a tad louder.

Where did you get ur bmc panel filter?

so all this talk of pod filters, is really not true?

they dont have a huge benefit?

I have a modded airbox. 100mm CAI cut in to the bottom of the airbox that leads in to the front inner bumper. This isn't possible to do with the R33's.

If you can setup a good CAI in to the stock R33 airbox I'd say its easily good for 300rwkw and better for hot weather.

I've tried a pod in the past and found a very noticeable difference in warm weather. The car noticeable feels gutless with slower spool.

All though the 3ltr masks it I don't notice a great deal of power difference in hot weather.

Autobarn. $113 from memory.

Was an impulse purchase. Went in for the usual ryco spotted these and thought bugger it. Its about time I spent some $$ on an air filter lol.

How long has this air box vs pod filter debate gone on for?! Hahaha...

Some say there's barely any difference when driving at speed, but when stationary, sure - a unshielded pod will be sucking up air which is 70+ degree's. Pod + shield + snorkel = win.

    • Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on 
    • You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump. 
    • Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
