and a K&N panel filter on the street.

Kill it with fire.

Oiled filters should not be anywhere near an AFM, and I have had better results with Blitz style cotton elements, they flow 500 odd kw.

Where would one purchase said blitz style cotton element?

Best bet would be Ebay, US is very cheap if you can find a decent postage rate. Greddy do a good one, even a Drift one would work well I guess.

Thanks mate, I'll be changing mine soon and I think the ones I've been using have had oil on them because I'm cleaning my AFM every 2000ks because of misfire (and yes it's 110% the AFM that's the culprit) either that or it's rooted.

There is a LOT more surface area on an OEM style paper filter than any aftermarket cotton or oiled style panel I have seen. I'm not surprised they flow well.

That's what I'm sayin, for the $10-$15 for a paper filter why would 1 bother with a $100+ fancy after market brand name filter if the cheapo paper one will flow the same but have 0 issues with oiling and filtration

Hardly $100, cotton panels are $20 in the states, we just get raped with retail prices. Autobarn tried to sell me a BMC panel for the Evo for $130 the other day.

Bucker, 20 uckers for the cotton filter, how much for freight from the states cause those farkers see Aus and slam up the postage

Yeah $150 odd I paid for the K & N shitter then had to get the compressor out and blow off the excess oil, THEN Pauly tells me he runs the paper jobby :(

I got angry at my shitty homo Five O Motorsport Injectors.. so I just ordered a top feed kit with Siemens DEKA IV 875cc injectors... broke now.

been getting around 180km to 200km per tank of E85 - just had enough of that bullshit economy

are you putting a link to this thread in the for sale thread? or you just gonna shit on someone else? :domokun:

I've put all the details in the for sale thread - have a read, I'm not a prick.

wasnt saying that.

the shit on someone else part meant that the guy who sold them to you f**ked you over, hopefully you would tell buyers what to expect.

no offense intended, but zero f**ks given if it was taken. :yes:

hope you can offload em man.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
