gtrken Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 Originally posted by adam 32 id still want to go for a more recognised brand ie K&N, Apexi, Blitz etc its an expensive mistake a $30 filter could cause over $2000 of damage. it happened to macka 6 months ago Don't know what it is with you guys and pods. Have had 2 xR's with em on , took em off , put std box back in with K+N . NO difference at all, well none you would notice on the road.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 The sump plug on mine was 14mm, so I assumed that it would be the same for the GTR:p See'ya:burnout: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/8821-whoretown-wa/page/464/#findComment-217436 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTS-t VSPEC Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 Well at any stage you can say that you want it taken to a workshop, but I think it will be something simple, like Macka dropping a bolt in there:p See'ya:burnout: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/8821-whoretown-wa/page/464/#findComment-217441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
