I'm interested. Even without forced induction the heat gets trapped under the hood. And if they add some style it's just icing on the cake :-)

Same here.. Maybe I will add a carbon fiber treatment to the added hood vents for my 2010 Nismo


So who going to cut up their hood first here





( Click to show/hide )

I cut a hole in my friends Mustang hood a few years back. We installed a shaker hood scoop. Measure twice, cut once. LOL

He was much more nervous than I was...

Based on my experience working on my car with someone else, the someone else is always less nervous.

Eagle will be the first and I maybe the second. Both of us have oem hoods we don't use so we have no worries!

I was just researching this idea, then found this thread. What are the opinions on the 'vette-style hood vent at this link: https://www.carid.com/apr-performanc...ood-vents.html Anyone good with Photoshop to see what it would look like on a Z?

Would require some creative fabrication, and maybe trimming on the under-hood frame.

Another idea that could work in concert with such a hood vent is a shroud that fits around the radiator/intercooler and snugs tight against the vent when the hood is closed.
