I've got a k&n panel filter for my s2 r33. I found that the car revs a little smoother through the rev range. Definitely a good mod, however the filter cost me about $80 from memory. I'm going back to airbox due to defect as well, it's definitely the safest bet these days mate.

Blitz LM Panels are a good thing, and not oiled so you won't have to worry about having to clean oily residue out of your AFM.

They are also made from cotton weave, not shitty paper like the Apexi version.

Grab one here: http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...at=0&page=1

$69.00 is pretty good value.

yeah I really cant be bothered giving more attention to them to look for the upgraded turbo and boost controler so the stocker covers it prety well , ive heard the k and n are good but ye also heard about the oil problem so i was tossing up between blitz and apexi since ive heard hks are useless aswell.

I brought a K&N filter (factory oiled when new) for my GTR and did about 3000km on it before I went to clean out my AFMs and there were clean not a drop of oil on either.. when it comes to re-oiling the filter, don't go overboard and blow the excess oil off with a air gun.. shouldn't have any problems.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
