Hi guys,

i got a completly stock r34 n/a...i was looking at a replacment filter, few questions:

1) can i still do a CAI with a panel filter?

2) is it worth buying this if my car is 100 percent stock?

3) can anyone vouch for this filter?

Cheers.

You can do a CAI using the stock air box. isnt really worth it tho.

No idea about the filter from justjap,

But I can definetly recommend getting an apexi panel filter. One of the best on the market in the amount of air that goes through and the filtering performance.

Was the first mod I done to my NA and I noticed a difference, especially in the top end, more air getting to the engine.

thanks for that. how much was the apexi panel filter and where did you buy from?

also, did you need to get a tune due to the air/fuel ratio changing?

where else but ebay.

A little more than the blitz tho.

Nah, no tune required. the stock ecu can handle a few mild mods befroe needing to go a copgy back.

Looks good, but if you include shipping its almost twice the price than the Blitz...i know Blitz is a well known/good brand, so i thihnk ill stick with that...unless somone tells me there craphola lol

I had good results with the K&N Panel. Easy to source one too.

R34's aren't too bad for getting air into the air intake with the snorkel. Cold air feed will always help with getting coldest possible air to the engine. Remembering with an N/A the aim is to remove the restrictions as much as possible (doing so with the filter) and then cooling the air with the cold air feed to make the extra power.

I never set up an additional cold air feed, though if the cooler night air performance was anything to compare to, it would be well worth it!

You could run a cold air feed from behind the front bar up into the cold air box, use something like a flexible tube. That way you'll get cold air into the air box and still have the heat resistant properties of the factory airbox.

You'll have to go beyond CAI, Extractors, Cat-Back before you'll need a copgy back. The R34 relearns quite well. If anything, just reset the ECU afterwards by disconnected Neg terminal on the battery, put foot on brake for 10 seconds, reconnect, then let the ECU relearn your driving style.

thanks, that helped a lot, could you give me a part number or name of your k&n filter? also, how much did you pay?

Hey mate no probs, happy to help :cool: I can't remember the part no, I went to a shielded Apexi Pod filter when I done the conversion and the R34 GT airbox wouldn't have worked out. It should be on K&N's web site? I think I paid around $70-80 for it? was retail price put it that way, I just took out the compliance filter pretty much straight away lol

K&N Products will suggest you oil the filter up.

That's just so the oil will catch smaller particles from going into your air intake.

You don't have to oil it up, but a light spray (Do Not Soak It) on the filter won't hurt either.

K&N, APex'i, Blitz ect will be good upgrade for your air filter.

+ you might as well find a decent 2.25" / 2.5" full exhaust + extractors and a high flow cat to help out the car.

The Blitz Panels are FAR superior to Apexi IMHO

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
