According to the Guys at Just-Jap they told me that its the same bolt pattern as R33 GTST AFM's. They recomended bolting an Apexi R33 pod straight up to the AFM.

I havent checked this, but I have pulled the AFM out and traced its shape so I can go in and check before purchasing.

Same as the one for the R33 GTS-t and lots of Commodes...

According to the K&N box, model number;

33-2031-2

Which panel filter from K&N fits the M35? There are a shitload of them and I can't find one listed for the M35 or V35 anywhere (I read somewhere the V35 has the same airbox).

Don't want to get the wrong one.

Thanks. Never done much modifying so I have a lot of learning to do. Only ever really done normal servicing (and that was just on a falcon)

You and me both.

My M35 is the first car I have "played" with... Had a VH crappydore and an R31 but had no interest in modding so they were both stock as a rock and rather boring.

there are heaps that use the same

s15 is one that comes to mind. also wrx use the same

i got the box at home with the part number if you need it later?

apparently they are really common

i think same size as the commodore 1's

Common panel filter indeed.

Here is the list of Nissan's that use the same panel filter as an M35 (easy to find Australian landed models in bold)

Almera Tino - V10

Avenir - W11

Bluebird - U14

Cedric - Y31

Cefiro - A31

Cima - F50

Crew - K30

Elgrand - E50/E51

Laurel - C33

Leopard - Y31/Y32

Maxima - J30/J31

Silvia - S15

Skyline - R34/V35

Stagea - C34/M35

Sunny - G10/B12/B13

Wingroad - Y11

well pod vs panel

more cold air to engine is better than limited air

but then u gota think about the engine heat that the pod sucks in as well

with the filters matching. we just know lol

theres no part numbers on the OEM filter i dont think

Thanks guys.

Did you just "know" which ones matched up or did you match a part number from the panel in the car itself?

Does a pod have any real performance increase over a panel? By real I mean worthwhile.

when the stock panel i pulled out was caked in black gunk i decided it was time for a new one.

my friends ordered me a k&n one for about 70 bucks, well worth it i say! i then went about fixing the intake to make it better.

... and what exactly did you do to the intake?

Did you just run an extra CAI into the stock box and open up the stock funnel?

Or did you change the intake piping? If so... PICSORBAN!!

Only if you make up a sealed airbox with sufficient cold air flowing in such as incorporating the OE air funnel and adding a CAI from the front bumper... but even then, you are still restricted by the intake piping.

I find it interesting that F1 use a panel filter... you would think that if a panel filter is good enough for an F1 car then the intake restriction is more to do with piping and CAI's than whether the filter is a pod or panel.

Zee picture! :D its nothing really just attacked it with a die grinder and saw as the opening for the intake was warped and closing up.

will look at a alloy intake pipe eventually. westside shall do a good job for me.

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
