Just be patient and careful and follow the DIY's and you'll be fine. As for the Fast Intentions, you can only buy that direct from Fast Intentions, you'd have to contact Tony.

This is his thread and he can be found Here

Its a hot commodity and you'll pay a bit extra for it but in most of our opinions, it well worth it. Any questions about it too, i'm sure Tony would be more than happy to answer. He's got tons of knowledge and makes a top quality product. All the other parts i would definitely get them from FBNissan though. He's a great dude too.

And yes, save the tune for last, there's no sense in tuning when you will be retuning after other mods. I think you'll be quite pleased with your results no matter what route you take in the end.

I have seen the DYI for the bumper and it looks really easy i just didnt wanted to go through that process lol but it will be well worth it with the gains........the Fast Intentions seems to be a great exhaust everyone has nothing but positive feedback for it, am still debating on the exhaust.... I got a good price on an Invidia Gemini from Jomer at FBNissan and its hard to refuse Invidia its a great exhaust too and at the price his giving it to me for its well worth it too..... Tha ks for the advices i highly appreciate them....

But all that said once you take the bumper off a few times it will only take you 30 mins to take it off and put it back on. Its really not a big deal.

Check this DIY out http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...de-ak370z.html That will give you a better idea of what you are dealing with.

Go for the G3's! Just do it, they make good power, and give your engine a lot better sound, not to mention they are easy on the eyes too! :tiphat:

I think i might go for the Gen 3's but have you seen the aFe cold air intake???? Looks just like the stillen gen 3 but instead of two cone filters is just one and the filter is a dry filter doesnt need to be reoiled.... I wonder if this intake is as good as the Stillen Gen 3 i had the aFe stage two intake on my 350z and i loved it

Also, you could replace the filters that come with the G3's from an oiled filter to a dry filter, has to be cleaned less frequently if that helps...

Looks interesting. I think i saw something about this is the forum before... Its a cool concept, and looks as if it does not require and cutting for the install. I would personally still go with the proven G3's, but that is just me. What is the price tag on that intake?

I did my reaearch and its going for $495 with free shipping so thats not bad at all..... And its pretty much similar to the stillen intakes...and like you said, doesnt look like you need to do any cutting for the install i mean for now the stillens are the best out there but i havent seen anything posted in this forum about the aFe power cold air intake and it looks like it will make similar or close numbers compared with the stillens... Dont know might be worth the try......i would like to see someone who actually got good gains out of this intake....

spoke to a aFe tech and he claims the intakes made 15whp 16tq peak power on a Mustang dyno meter......

I actual bought a pair of AEM dry filters for the Gen 3's but I haven't had the time to install it yet. The ones I bought after speaking to someone at Stillen were a little shorter, but a bit larger outside diameter at the base of the cone filter.

I think am gonna go for the aFepower stage two cold air intake, dont know looks like its worth the price and the gains should be similar or very close compared with the Stillen Gen 3's
