i found a Weapon R Dragon Intake for a 90-92 Rx-7. the thing is, i have a 87. is there any difference in the engines? or could i just go ahead and order this Intake and have it fit my 87? pleaes help, i really like the intake.

 

they are different, however it should say 89-91, as the 89 is the same as the 90, and there is no 92. tells you how smart they are. those things are peieces of crap. order a air filter adapter from www.k2rd.com for like $20 then buy a K&N cone.

 

so they suck? eh. but anyway, i went to that site, and cant find the adapter. where is it?

hks adapter, $25 a K&N cone should be another $50 or so. how much was the weapon R one?

 

thanks alot:p the weapon r one is like 150$. it was phat looking, and i heard it worked real well. www.weapon-r.com check it out.

 

From weapon R site:

The Defuser is stratigically placed in the intake pipe to
create a harmonic balance in the air charge, which straightens
the airflow and creates a Hyper Combustable formation of air
intake charge.

To increase intake charge, we developed the Dragon Filter,
which features an internal dual tuned flow velocity stack
design and Air Turbulance guides.

Utilizing the high flow rate characteristics of a foam
filtering element, we are able to increase flow by 25%
over other air filters.

Wow looks revolutionary. Harmonic balance in the air charge, internal dual tuned velocity stack, air turbulance guides! It must be good

 

ah i dont know what to do!!! my akimoto sports one is one big piece of ****! people tell me kn cai, others say hks, and i hear m2. i dont know!!!

 

DO NOT GET HKS! The foam breaks off and flys into your engine. I have seen it happen. +, air leaks around the cone and doesn't filter the air 100%

Get K&N, everything is sealed in the filter. No unfiltered air leaks. turst me. I have bought HKs and threw it in the trash when I found out how shitty they were.

DO NOT get weapon R. They suck too! That is Nopi crap.

get K&N!!!!

 

K&N FIPK or K&N CAI?

 

ill go with the fipk

 

fipk is over $100 too, the adapter + cone is the cheapest and works fine. the weapon R one probably works it's majic like it says but will fall apart after a month or so.

 

i have an akimoto sports intake right now. where does that adapter go? and akimoto sports sucks, so i wanna get rid of it, any idea how much i could get for it?

 

if you have an intake right now you probably already have an adapter, so you'd only need a k&n cone with the same size hole

 

yeah, but the arm part is akimoto, and akimoto sucks

 

wanna see it?

 

yes, post a pic,

 

dammit, it wont let me upload it twice, hang on, ill put it in my sig.

 

here we go

 

I can't see it, I need to sign in to excite, which I don't have.

just attach it to the forum from your computer. not your site

 

i already tried that. i posted it in another thread, so it wont let me post it again, ill re save it and try it there. if that doesnt work, look in the lemme see your engine thread. its in the 2nd gen one.

 

just give me the link to the other tread, or find the link of the pic by left clinking and going to propertys, and post that.

 

here

 

here, hope this works. https://www.rx7club.com/vforums/show...threadid=33076

 

you already have the adapter, and it looks like an hks filter. if you want a k&N just measure the hole sizie of that one, and pick up a k&N cone with the same hole. what's wrong with the one you have?

 

akimoto isnt that great. well, my car doenst really heat up past half way, so i guess its pretty good...
