Hi all,

I am about to install an Apexi air pod kit on my r34 gtr, and I noticed that the 2 blue gaskets that fit in between the air pod itself and the silver metal part has a slightly different facing on one side of it. One side is completely blue and the other side is blue with a bit of a white through it. This is on both gaskets.

So I am curious to know which side faces the filter??? Or does it even matter???

Cheers,

Its the same as the single Apexi for GTS aswell. Mine had the same gasket.

As mentioned, it doesnt matter. Just like exhaust gaskets. one side is ususally flat and the other not. Just acts as something to squash and seal.

GL!

Thanks a bunch for all the replies guys! I installed the air pods yesterday and I have to say that I love the way my car sounds now!!! :) I mean, it sounds like im running high boost!!! Induction noise n all. Feels like it pulls slighty harder now... (errr duh! lol!)

I am really pleased with these filters!!! :down:

Although now, I have to find a way to shield it from the engine!

Anway, here are the pics...

That looks nice!! Is ther anyway you can build a box around these fellows and make them street legal ?

I got pulled over in NSW the other day, and for the first time they asked me to pop the bonnet. All good since mine is stock, but if I want pods later on, just wondering if there is a way to place a custom box around it and be ok?

Do the BOVs sound louder?

Cheers mate! Yeah Im sure people have fabricated custom heat shields/box for these pod filters but I have yet to find a good way to do that myself!

And yes the BOV's and induction sounds waaay louder! Slight flutter at times and sounds like im running over 20 pound! LOL! still running stock boost btw. :)

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.

      You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛

      Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.

      That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together

      I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
