Just a question, i have just had a pod filter fitted to my z, the bottom gaurd has been revoved i think? so that the pod is exposed to the out side directly through the front air intake, im wondering if water could go into the pod from the front or should a gaurd be installed? any suggestions?:unsure:
i've got the same setup with mine i had the same problem my stone tray scraped and got stuck on a speed bumb flipped back and snapped (thanks to my "dubspec" lowering. i havn't had any problems at all... i've been in rain n gone through puddles wihtout a problem. i'm not sayin take ur car for a swim... but if u ask me u should be orrite.
Yeh thats what i thort It seems t be about 2-3" up higher than the top of the front opening, i would'nt think it would be affected, allthough it is drawing in air? i just dont whant a water air intake mixture i dont fink it be very good:wacko:
This topic was recently discussed on antilag.com here's the link for the thread..interesting stuff.....ANTILAG THREAD
no worries with mine Living in Adelaide Hills I quite often drive in heavy rain & had no problems over 3 or 4 winters
I haven't had a problem....>> In nearly 7 years, although I don't drive the car through creek crossings or deep standing water.
Just for info.. once upon a time.. in a land not far from here.. when I was an apprentice.. HSV brought out a thing called an SV5000, mostly in Bottle green, the induction for that had a huge Airbox that had a big velocity stack going directly downwards... awesome induction noise... and good HP, but they had a baffle under the guard, for two things reduce the induction roar and to stop direct induction of bulk water..seems some either missed out or owners had removed them... needless to say we had a few in that needed the crooked rods :wacko: to be removed and nice straight ones put back in... :thumbsup: perhaps the original design of an air pump wasn't so good as a waterpump...
Re: Thanks Just Ordered my Unifilter Pod from UAS, will arrive tomorrow... Had a look and the previous owner had a lready removed the shielding from below so guess i will also see how it goes... Whooo cant wait ... pod .... then boost jets ... YAY
