yea, so no pod filters unless you guys no of one thats like adr approoved or something, i can make it all custom and stuff, just wanted some ideas from you guys or if anyone has done something similar, I'm going for that new engine look, nice and shiny but looks all legal.

 

Cheers guys, hope someone can help me with this.

hha yea ay crank the drill out

 

there u go instant cold air intake

Easiest way to fit a pod filter is to us a carby hat from a liteace. :)

didnt exactly want the pod filter cause most cops have a wah at them.

 

but ill just have a pipe go down to an enclosed airbox with a dry pod filter i think.

 

Thanks guys, and what is the liteace part?

Just modify the stock aircleaner and run a bit of duct hose down behind the grille. Easy cold air intake!

Lite ace hat is no good on a nikki. If its a gemmi one it's got close to a 3" round opening on the top. I used to run a rubber joiner and PVC drain pipe right angle bend covered in black insulation tape. I just used a rubber pipe off a V6 camry after the bend with a pod on the end. Looked pretty neat and had great induction noise.

yea its a gemini one, ok souns good, when i get it ill try something similar to that, except ill just make it all out of a 3" aluminium pipe. can i use a dry pod filter or will i be defunked?

i just stuck a little pod filter type of thing straight on top of my carb after my stock air cleaner died(engine is 3tc). i had to hack off some of the base of the filter and drill a hole in the top of the filter for the air cleaner bolt to go through and then it just all lined up perfect, i made a little gasket but i don't think it even needs the gasket, the filter was just a $20 one from repco. ill take a pic when the rain stops

 

EDIT: car also passed rego like this no probs

lagality, AFAIK comes down to original fitment, if it originally had an exposed aircleaner setup, then there is nothing illegal about a POD filter.

 

If it ran an airbox, or similar, then the pod must be enclosed.

yea, well will that be classed from the nikki carb or the 4k carb, cause I'm not sure about nikki one but 4k one was enclosed, + a different carbi = defect anyway though don't it?
