i was taking out my hps intake tubes to switch back to stock and i broke, what seems to be the resonator or something on the driver side intake... does anyone know where i can get another piece or do i have to go to the dealer on this one????

glue?

You could try Krazy glue or try to find a small 2'' piece of pipe of some kind that will fit inside halfway thru creating a new place for the hose to be installed on with a possible clamp. Courtesy Nissan may have that part but I personally don't know the name or part #

Hopefully those options help.

thanks triple, i got a small aluminum pipe, grinded it down, and wedged it between the two broken ends until they met(to use as support) and glued it together. your small pipe idea gave me a great idea thanks again!

i eliminated that crap with some 90 degree pvc elbows.had to get a piece of straight hose for the passenger side.drivers side oem hose, intake to valve cover, fit perfectly.

Also IIRC, Z1 makes silicon hoses to replace those boxes on both sides.
