Apexi Pod Filter Without Adapter

[nuffsaid]

Hi all

I have got an Apexi pod filter. On the nengun site it says its a replacement filter.

There is no adapter, just holes in the back of the filter where the screws go in.

The part number is 500-A022.

I know that there is a kit for my R34, part number 500-N006. However this kit does not come with an adapter because the filter will bolt straight on to the AFM.

Question is, the replacement filter I have, will that just also bolt straight on?

What is the difference between to 2 parts? If there is no adapter in the Apexi kit, then shouldnt the 2 parts be the same? Or are there some other parts that I need?

Cheers all!

it sounds like you bought the new paper insert for them and no i dont see that its going to bolt on to your AFM but you need the whole filter instead.yep thats what you did same numbers you should have got the power intake kit!

Its the actual filter including the funnel and that. So its not just the paper and wire on it.

I got this off a mate, unfortunately I dont have pics on me. Grr! But yeah its not just the red paper bit.

I pretty much have this:

With holes at the back of the filter for screws.

The nengun site says "The Apexi Intake kit includes. Power intake funnel, Adapter, Gaskets and Bolts."

I already have the intake funnel, gaskets and bolts. Just no adapter, but have been told an adapter does not come with the R34 kit because it doesnt need one.

Any R34 owners out there with a Apexi pod?

Mate ER34 and ECR33 are same part number.

Since R33 GTS-T part comes with adaptor you must also need one for R34?

There you can see R34 part includes adaptor.

A quick question though, why is there a different part number for turbo and non-turbo R33? What differences are there?

HiPower racing in QLD and Nengun said there arent any adapters. Strange.

Anybody with a 34 who can enlighten us?

This is what I have

just put on the same kit on my r33, doesnt need an adaptor it bolts on with 4 of those holes on the back... i was confused at first too

this may sound crazy, but have you thought about walking out to your car and trying it out?

[nuffsaid]

I am not home and nowhere near my car

And I figured it would be much easier if someone on here knew rather than having to take out the stock box

mine bolted on fine.. just took off the stock airbox and bolted that straight to the AFM

im a nonturbo boy.

I have one of those HKS Super Power Flow 'mushroom' filters that looks like that when you turn it over. Mine didn't need an adaptor of any sort, just bolted straight on to the AFM. I'd assume the Apexi one is the same.

its bolts onto the stock AFM, i have one,

so thats why there is no adapter

[gt-t_r34]

it goes in those holes with the plastic gasket inbetween i think the different holes are for other models coz i had 3 screws in my and the fourth wouldnt fit and i figured it was up side down!

[siksII]

the only thing the kit comes with as opposed to just the filter i believe is a metal bracket to hold the pod up.

i bought the kit and was dissapointed that this was the only difference when i could have got just the filter which bolts straight up.

so with the filter it will bolt straight up, it comes with a paper gasket that u put between the afm and filter.

if u dont have a bracket for it u will have to make one (easy)

Kool thanks guys.

I think I wont need a bracket because I will be getting a CAI box for it all

Oh and does anyone know the rule about pod filters in NSW?

Are they legal if boxed?

Will I still get defected if boxed? Police can defect you on anything, its at their discretion isnt it?
