Hi Penny

i too am in the market for an Injen intake i think they are pretty good sound great and look the part too

I am currently in contact with JDMYARD in sydney who are the Official Distributors of Injen here in NSW.

If they are going to charge way too much i will order it from the USA if the AUD will go up a little will be even better

i have a stillen Z-tube. highly recommended as its a perfect 100% fit and sounds great

don't expect any performance gain however with ANY intake otherwise you are kidding yourself. there is quite a sound difference at wide-open throttle however

i will be selling my intake shortly if you want to hold off for a few weeks

the injen kit looks great but i have heard that the fitment isn't so good

Still no idea as they havent gotten back to me.... not happy!!

I hate it when places say "i will get back to you" because they never do!

I don't think any place has ever "gotten back to me". I've always had to call back.

Just keep calling them - you'll get info eventually.

stillen z-tube is basically just a smooth pipe that connects the back ofthe AFM to the front of hte throttle body, thus eliminating the baffle and large resonator type device that slows down airflow on our car

the high-flow part is basically a pod and airbox that replaces the standard airbox. i simply replaced the standard filter with a K&N panel filter to achieve the same net result

basically any form of intake sounds great when WOT but the difference is not noticable at any other throttle position. get the cheapest kit you can that fits well.

i got mine from www.stillen.com but you can also get it from www.everythingg35.com and probably a few other places

I fitted a Z-tube to mine last weekend with the factory airbox and K&N panel filter as well. Apart from the more aggresive rev note around 3-4k rpm, I think there was a slightly noticeable increase in performance as well...but maybe thats just my ass dyno at work ;)

Hey guys,

If anyone here has decided to change their airbox and are looking to unload their OE "power" Airbox (the open one with the foam surrounds), I would be interested in taking it off your hands.

(don't see any in the For Sale section)

Just make your own. Costs less than $20. Cheaper than buying it from Nissan and just as effective. :P

Yeah, I saw the pics you posted a while ago in the other thread, it looks great....

Have you managed to fill the gap on the lower front of the box?

Yes, I used a piece of foam and glued it in the gap at the front. It is attached to a piece of L shaped extruded plastic that I cat groves in the end so it slides down the front edge of the air box and will not fall out. It sits just under the front composite cross member.

I folded the rubber seal on the bonnet back so it would allow air to flow and not block it off. I used a piece of wire in the end of the rubber and then bent it so it stays to the side. (just in case I ever want to out it back to stock)

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
