Currently my Apexi air intakes rub slightly against the radiator fan.

Will buying these cure the fitment problems?

Thanks in advance!

Here is a pic of my engine bay, you can see the lower apexi intake rub up against the fan.

 

Can't answer regarding whether it will solve your rubbing issues. These have been selling on ebay for some time and from what I've heard, the lower pipe doesn't fit and the pipes are pretty thin. On the other hand, they're way cheap compared to the $200+ ones. Might be some value in them as long as you know what to expect.
BTW, very nice looking engine and front mount but what's going on with your AST, it looks like it's sideways.

 

Maybe it's just me and I mounted mine reversed, but I get no rubbing whatsoever.

 

Ack! Toadster, what up with that? Get some sheet metal or plastic, screws, maybe some rubber/foam stuff or silicone to seal the gaps and cover that intercooler duct hole. Otherwise, looks tight.

 

so you switched the mounting locations of the two filters?

 

Man how did you get the lower intake all the way over below almost the alternator? I know the stock accordion hoses are flexible, but wow. And very warm there behind the radiator. Maybe it's the IC pipe and radiator in the way.



I followed the instructions as is. Am I missing something here or dyslexic? The tighter-bend filter with CRV hose fitting and pill goes up top. You can rotate the lower one so the smaller bend is not so severe and rubs the radiator before you clamp it.


And I patched the hole using sheet aluminum(yah, my first Home Depot mod, LOL!), tin snips and silicone adhesive.



The lower Bomez pipe has been problematic for quite a few members. You might have to really work at it, and I didn't want to stress out a coupler and have it split or pop off sometime so I coughed up for the RX7store pipes. Havent been disappointed yet. Snipping a heat shield from Damian's template this weekend is next.

If you don't want to blow a wad on bling piping just yet use the brackets that came with the Apexi's, bolt the filters together with the small twisted bracket, then to the stock airbox leftover holes in the apron with the long bracket.

 

Thanks for the info let me go see what I can work out!
