Jotech told me the same thing. No go on the Gen III on a NISMO.

I'm sticking with my version.

I am going to call first thing in the morning and verify which one was sent. I was clear that I had a 2013 Nismo.

What is the issue with part number 402852 Stillen Gen 3? I spoke with Stillen and they said it works fine with the Nismo. In fact it is listed on the Stillen site: STILLEN : STILLEN Generation 3 Ultra Long Tube Dual Intake Kit

I placed the grommet on top and put the bolt through it kind of like a big washer

I noticed there is a towing bolt.
Nice Solution!:tup: But you DO need a donut for donut in case!:icon17: I also wonder if the Bose sub is mounted this way for the non-nismo 370zs as well.

Hmmmm... Very interesting... I am gonna check mine as well.

good solution David. I will buy a grommet for mine as well. and also, I don't have a tool sitting in that empty spot ether on my 13. neither did my 09. always assumed it was for another model and didn't care.

If that's true. How come I have one installed on my Nismo? You have to do some extra cutting on a panel behind the bumper. Look in my journal for pictures. ;)

I contacted Stillen again and verified that the Generation 3 is 100% compatible with the Nismo. A little extra adaptation is required as reported in miltiple posts including a great DIY and by RUSTY.

Sorry if my original post was misleading, but I should have said that the Gen III will not fit the NISMO without modifications.

I wanted something that did not require any cutting. Hence the no go on the Gen III.

In my defense, some people consider a part where you have to cut or modify anything in order to install it as not fitting. :tup:

Check this thread out. No mods need to be done. These are the CAI's I am looking to buy.

they have the same thing available for the frontier and titan. apparently going by average those give a 12.5 whp gain according to the dyno chart posted. so I would assume its similar to that. just not happy I have to drill holes in stuff. they put the filters in the fender wells to avoid drilling. so now u have to drill something ELSE to relocate the washer fluid bottle. face palm.

The guys at Stillen say that the Gen 3 adds an average 22 HP for the Nismo!
