Please contact me directly as this concerns me. We do sell the cooling kit for the Nismo's, we just state that we don't have a mounting solution for the inlets. As Mike states, all you need are the hoses and the backing plates...If you'd like to sort out the front inlets that's great. We'll simply supply you with the kit designed to fit the STILLEN fascia.

My email address is kmillen@stillen.com

Thank you.

Plan on putting my kit on tomorrow! Hopefully this will work out with the Z1 oil cooler that I will be installing next. One question, does the brake cooling ducting make it more challenging to remove the front fascia in the future?

Only slightly. Once you have the undertray off, you reach into the bumper from underneath and unhook the hoses (undoing hose clamps on them), pull them loose, and then the bumper comes off like normal. Just be sure you face the hose clamp bolt-heads the right direction on install to make them easy to reach from underneath

I can't find a way to route the houses and not rub them off... I am running 285's up front at the moment... they lasted 2-3 days before they rub off!!!

my drivers side is fine, but the pass has some wear from when I was running 295s. on the drivers side, I routed the hose behind the fender liner, but the ac lines made that not an option. And, as I type this, I realize that Z1 removed my AC for me, so I should check if I can reroute them.

you can get 12' of it from Summit for 75.

Why the big cost distinction between the kit for the Stillen ligament and the one for the inventory fascia? Looking at the images of the kit they are the same. Or is it that you don't need the top side supports for the Stillen ?. . . . .

For the Stillen fascia. It takes a different inlet bracket.
