Hi there i pulled apart my cabin air filter to replace i cant seem to find one small enough one to fit. The old one that was in there already was one that the old owner has cut but wasn't a proper filter and has half fallen apart so cleaning it will be pointless

The part number AY684-NS002 cabin filter that mention in all the thread is way to thick to fit in mine the measurement of the old filter was 245mm x 95mm x 10mm thick I cant find anything that is thin enough to fit (10mm /1cm thick)

The video i posted below is similar to what I'm encountering that a person posted and for the life of me cant find anything suitable to fit

Skip to the 1 min 30 sec mark to see the filter tray assembly and you will see the issue

Again part number AY684-NS002 wont fit it too thick

 

the video above shows what i mean

Does that element actually have to be there? Is it part of a cold climate options pack or something? Piss it off and throw the fat filter in?

So these are the element things im not sure what they are

So there are also two different parts on that Kudos page

AY684-NS002 'Pollen Only'

AY685-NS002 'Pollen, odour and allergen'

Interestingly enough - the diagrams for those are a little bit different:

AY684-NS002:

AY685-NS002:

But I think that's just a red-herring - as these filters are both the same size/thickness and fit the same.

Looking at your filters / those in the video - they're very very different.  From previous threads on this:

Which is far more consistent with:

Another interesting note - in the video, we see cabling or something coming out of the filter:

Which isn't consistent with other threads on this topic:

https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-v5OHYjMx3SE/WFEMJjszwlI/AAAAAAAAEcU/lA6gVFPF-tAJzrs5zTWNUVFAUEMLtjUJwCLcB/s640/skyline.meshur.com-R34-112.jpg

So - something is a bit different/weird here.   It may be you'll need a different housing to fit those style of filters.

I poked through diagrams and stuff and couldn't see any versions of filters like that - but maybe someone else has an idea or has seen this before.  The 'cold climate options pack' perhaps that another poster mentioned?

Well, searching that part number online came up listed as 'Permanently out of stock'.

Googling for '503756-0120' definitely finds lots of images of these filters!

It also lead to this thread on gtr.co.uk (https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/r34-pollen-filter.58381/#post-515069 ) :

Got the 2 white filters delivered today from Nissan as above, and guess what?
When I took off the panel as Ian describes above, the 2 filters inside are NOT white paper concertina type. They have electrical connections to them with what looks like an oval " electrical coil" in the filter housing and a black mesh on the other side. The housing for the 2 filters is exactly as ian has said on his site.

There is NO white paper type filter to be seen anywhere.

This filter looks like an anti static type which works by the use of the 12v system. These look mega expensive. So I have vacuumed them and put them back.

Now I have 2 brand new paper concertina type filters for sale, since my R34 GTR has this electrical type filter. I wonder if the white paper filter is for the GTT only?

The part number on these electrical type filters is 503756-0120 then underneath 96602.

As posted by R33 vspec

"I asked this a while ago, and got no reply. I had to do a bit of guess work myself!!!

Have you got the pollen filters from Nissan? I have the part# if you need it"


Did yours have these electrical type filters or the white paper ones as Ian describes on his site? If you have an R34 GTR, the why is your filter possibly diferent? Is this a UK spec mod for the R34 GTR?

I have taken some pics if anyone needs then to show these electrical filters. They look to be the same size as the paper ones.

The thread continues on talking about these 'electrical type' filters that use anti-static - and how impossible to get / expensive they are (and that was 2006). So I guess that answers what you have, at least.

This image shows apparently an extra bit in the AC display apparently relating to it:

https://s.auto.drom.ru/1/comments/95/94416.jpg

And there is some interesting translated Russian about possibly a Laurel and the operation of this particular style of filter - and that they're impossible to get / find.

Anyway, it sounds like if you're not happy with the filters you have now - it would be easiest to source the housing for the regular filters, and use those instead?

I went to change mine today and discovered i have these electrostatic ones too. When they're plugged in, i get that image on the climate control.  not sure if it means "filter is functional", or "clean filter".  I'm just going to give the filter part a wash and the static coil an air blow i think. EDIT: on second thoughts, the honeycomb filter is fibrous and looks like it wont stand up to a wash.  Interesting, the japanese writing on the side of the coils says "warning: do not disassemble, risk of electric shock". So i presume the control module for them bumps the 12V up to something much higher to create the ionisation effect!

Dude I hate when people create topics like this when you can just search ‘r34 cabin filter’ on google and get results. Cabin air filter.com.au has some for the r34 skyline. I bought it and installed it and it’s perfect

For anyone out there looking for this part, ajudge is correct, these are micrguard puretron filters. Hard to come by, but Nissan sell a pair of thin filter replacements as a kit. Part number 27494-5L826 and can be ordered from USA or Japan. I paid $200 including postage from USA as they had stock. Nissan dealer wanted $300-$400 to order in from Japan.

See post below showing the kit and installation which also shows how to "reset" your filters (you'll need to google web translate):

I know this thread is old but it was a godsend for me. I thought I'd add my 2 cents for anyone trying to do this themselves.

I found the part on Amayama here and it was delivered within 7 days for < $100 AUD, breakdown is as follows:

  • Nissan 27494-5L826 - FILTER KIT, AIR PURIFIER & CARBON $65.97 AUD
  • Shipping: EMS International $32.79 AUD
  • Total $98.76 AUD

The video above was helpful, but I couldn't find a decent translation there for how long to press the reset etc. I found this guide to cleaning and replacing these which Google translated the page pretty perfectly. 

Hopefully this helps someone struggling.

    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
    • So, what else.... Power. I don't know what it is making because I haven't done a post tune dyno run yet; I will when I get a chance. It was 240rwkw dead stock. Conclusion from the day....it does not need a single kw more until I sort some other stuff. It comes on so hard that I could hear the twin N1 turbos on the R32 crying, and I just can't use what it has around a tight track with the current setup. Brakes. They are perfect. Hit them hard all day and they never felt like having an issue; you can see in the video we were making ground on much lighter cars on better tyres under brakes. They are standard (red sport) calipers, standard size discs in DBA5000 2 piece, Winmax pads and Motul RBF600 fluid, all from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney. Keeping in mind the car is more powerful than my R32 and weighs 1780, he clearly knows his shit. Suspension. This is one of the first areas I need to change. It has electronically controlled dampers from factory, but everything is just way too soft for track work even on the hardest setting (it is nice when hustling on country roads though). In particular it rolls into oversteer mid corner and pitches too much under hard braking so it becomes unstable eg in the turn 1 kink I need to brake early, turn through the kink then brake again so I don't pirouette like an AE86. I need to get some decent shocks with matched springs and sway bars ASAP, even if it is just a v1 setup until I work out a proper race/rally setup later. Tyres. I am running Yoko A052 in 235/45/18 all round, because that was what I could get in approximately the right height on wheels I had in the shed (Rays/Nismo 18x8 off the old Leaf actually!). As track tyres they are pretty poor; I note GTSBoy recently posted a porker comparo video including them where they were about the same as AD09.....that is nothing like a top line track tyre. I'll start getting that sorted but realistically I should get proper sized wheels first (likely 9.5 +38 front and 11 +55 at the rear, so a custom order, and I can't rotate them like the R32), then work out what the best tyre option is. BTW on that, Targa Tas had gone to road tyres instead of semi slicks now so that is a whole other world of choices to sort. Diff. This is the other thing that urgently needs to be addressed. It left massive 1s out of the fish hook all day, even when I was trying not too (you can also hear it reving on the video, and see the RPM rising too fast compared to speed in the data). It has an open diff that Infiniti optimistically called a B-LSD for "Brake Limited Slip Diff". It does good straight line standing start 11s but it is woeful on the track. Nismo seem to make a 2 way for it.
