Hi all,

 

getting stuff in for when i pull the engine to do the tubs as i want to do a service as well i know what most items are apart from the air filters, I assumed they were the standard nissan part but someone told me nissan ones were flat pannel filters, what i have is a y piece from the AFM with 2 x cone type filters on, these have no markings on what so ever so have no idea what they are, wether they can be washed and re oiled? does this sound like a normal setup?

 

Thanks

No.

 

Apexi are the best, no argument from most on here either.

no, that is an aftermarket setup. the oem ones are flat panel found in the stock airbox, which has probably been removed since you now have the cone type filters. It is usual that aftermarket filters can be washed and re-oiled, but sometimes this is not needed, depening on type. Are they a stainless steel mesh, or like the paper/filter type ???

No.

Yep :D

Same here..........

 

hey Glenn think thats what i have got altho mine is a plastic pipe not a nice shiney metal one like yours, going to get my lad to check the filters again for a manufacturers name. they look like the same material and are very grubby. not sure how you go on about cleaning / renewal.

hmmmmm just got my lad to look and the pipe is deffo plastic and the filters have no markings at all, look very much the same as Glenn's setup tho, maybe its a cheap copy, wonder if i can use the pipe work and just stick apexi filters on what i have already then.
