Just wondering if it is possible to run the HKS EVC type 3 stepper motor without any filters. The one i have is missing the filters. If it is not possible to run this without the filters would anyone know where these can be purchased or if they can be made up?

mines doesnt haven't any filters that i know of, do you mean the ones that plumb into the air lines?

Yeah the ones that normally lead from your stepper motor to your solenoids:

The reason why i say this is: i have only had the car a week and am already modding it.

I have bought a boost controller and have seen the same one from a different supplier only it had filters attached to the stepper motor output hoses.

Do you reckon the stepper motor or solenoids will become shafted if these filters are not in place?

During the drag day a mate and I had to fix a car that was overboosting. Peaking at 2bar constantly.

When we checked the stepper motor (Greddy profec A type)we also saw one of these little filters. It was attached to the cross over pipe, so you'd think the air would be clean... anyway, the filter was filthy, on inspection we broke the stupid little filter.

I then decided to plug the vacuum line straight into the motor. Overboost issue was fixed. The controller still works. Not sure if it'll do any damage in the long run.

The stepper motor that came with my Greddy Profec B s2 didn't come with any of these filters. There is one in line with the boost controller though.

Looks like i wont bother about chasing up any filters! I will just wack it straight in!

I have to wait three months however for the dealers statutory warranty to subside before i can put it in otherwise it becomes void! (Geez it is hard waiting!!!!!!!!) Cheers for the feedback!

      You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏

      Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
