Make it sound nice, make it look nice. If you wanted a fast car you would've bought a turbo suby. If you can't buy a turbo suby, look after your car and upgrade later.
Don't spend money on an n/a engine, unless its a supercharger
Put the money away and buy a BRZ or WRX later.

How did you go with your upgrades judge me?
Hi Russell85,
I havent done any engine mods to my car yet, you can view my introduction thread here http://www.subyclub....494#entry133494
Basically all i have done to my car is coilovers and rims and i am very happy with my decision. I want to do something with the exhaust to give my car a nice sound, but not sure if I will even bother with a cat back or exhaust yet…..right now I am happy with it.
I know a pod filter is pointless for a N/a Car can I get anyone’s opinion in regards to a new panel filter. I have seen these two on eBay….. are they worth the money or just pointless???

Yeah I should have been more specific.Farks the AFM actually.
For the record of anyone reading this, the oiled filters will coat the Air Flow Meter sensors with a thin layer of oil, and therefore will give incorrect measurements.

Lukey Filters are pretty good.. oh and its commodore filter.. so you can search that size also and get for even cheaper i got mine for $10 brand spankers
And Nissan Pulsar plus many others.
Part number is Ryco A360 IIRC, yes?
If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

And as implanted4 suggested, "best bet for a p plater, is keep everything well serviced, add your exhaust for the noise, but leave it all alone until you are legal and then buy a turbo.. IMHO your cash is better spent on wheels and suspension, which can all be swapped off for std items when you sell.." so ill probably be getting a wrx in a year or so, maybe just leaving it as is and saving for a turbo car where improvement in power is easily gained for less cash. Cheers!!

When they are positioned in the engine bay.No point using a pod, they actually dont help the car at all, sucking it hot engine air.
