Nismo intake

NisMoDo · 06-10-2009, 08:57 AM

Can't wait to see how it actually looks on the car. I wonder how low the intake sits. From the pic the intake looks pretty short.

Yep. In fact, notice that it's the exact same intake as the one for the 350 HR.

Which means? How did this intake perform on the 350?

Wouldn't it make sense to bolt these onto a 370z and provide some sort of power gains. I mean, it is a different engine. Yes / No

Not sure I understand your question. Nobody has dyno'd these on a 370 yet to my knowledge. But these aren't really much different than the JWT intake, which RCZ already tested. He got around 8whp if I remember correctly.

Semtex, 8 whp is nice and all, but will these type intakes become a liability due to the heat in the engine bay??

Look closer in the description;
"Powder coated heat shields"
I understand that these are not for everyone. I decided to purchase these for the ez install and after care. I don't feel like taking my bumper on and off even once not to mention making holes larger. I'm no racer, just a young at heart 50 year old who purchased this car as a 50th birthday present to himself (helps to have a great wife!)I have owned 4 Z's prior to this one, I loved my first a 240! Bob Sharp airdam, true spoke wheels, whale tail, blacked out head light lens covers. She was the best.

^ O.K.... O.K. So do the heat sheilds REALLY work? Not being a pessimist, just very curious as I am SERIOUSLY considering adding this to my part list.

I plan to do a FEW track days, but that will only be roughly 3% of my Z track activity.....

Thoughts??

Most short ram heat shields I've seen on ths car only seem to be positioned to reflect radiant heat from the radiator core area. Just a piece of bent aluminum essentially. The hot radiator is really just one source of heat. Most of the air ingested will be hot underhood temperatures that the heat shields have no affect on. The only way to truly protect from this is to build a full box that seals against the hood and allows only air in from the front bulkhead holes (like the stock system) ..or move the filters outside of the engine bay like the Stillen Version 3.

I'm working on a bit of a short ram Hybrid that uses a fully integrated, insulated heat shield around the filters. These will be fed from a cold air feed hose from the fang opening. More when I get these on the car..
