Auto Anything has them cheaper than anybody with free shipping and they have 2 great discount codes going right now. The 10% off one expires in a few days but the $40 off is good throughout March. And to beat that if you can find it cheaper anywhere else in a years time, send Auto Anything the link and info of the cheaper and they will pay the amount of difference from their advertised price and the competitors.

2009-2012 Nissan 370Z Cold Air Intakes - Takeda TA-3017P - Takeda Air Intake Systems

Discount Codes
10% off Orders $300 or More + Free Shipping expires 3-9-12
Code: MARCH1

$40 off Orders $350 or More + Free Shipping expires 3-30-12
Code: SPRING40

So I guess after all the scam bs I went through everything came out terrific. I got scammed for $400 with the used G3's, got my money back, found this deal the same day, and it only cost me $0.95 for brand new Takeda's over the used junk. My total was $400.95 shipped to my house

Everything happens for a reason... Hit that rep button for finding this killer deal guys... Pretty good for a rookie Z owner

Looks neat.

I have this on my G and sold the Gen 3 to get it .. The fitment on the Takeda is way better with no rubbing issues .. The thinking behind the one filter is more surface area .. The only thing that I did not like about the kit is the couplers .. Cheap and tear easily .. Purchased some cheap eBay 4 ply and could not be happier .. Good choice op ..

Dyno's from each intake??? It looks cool but idk if Im sold on the single filter unit being better than the Gen 3's dual filters.

Thanks man.... Seems like a lot of G3 users don't like the idea that something might come close to their "superior " intake. Afe makes darn good products, I don't see where this will be any different. I'm sure they have done their homework. Even the engineers here at work agree that with the large surface area and both being connected, it should make one heck of a balanced, equal pull of airflow and a lot of it.

I like the idea of anything that makes more power! If its better than the Gen 3, awesome. I just wonder about the single filter. I would love to see some test results.

Interesting.

Closer to the TB might be a more practical place to measure the Air Temps for accuracy before they hit the manifold. However, there is a greater risk of heat soak that far up over the exhaust manifold.... just my

the maf location is pretty clear in the picture, the opening is in the bottom of the pipe, similar to the IC piping from GTM kits. looks pretty good, I would be curious to see the before/after dyno.

Nick911sc · 03-09-2012, 03:04 PM

I remember seeing development pictures of this awhile ago. In for dyno results.

alcheng · 03-09-2012, 03:51 PM

Interesting design, and $400 is a killing price!

In for pics and Dyno too.

Greater risk of heat soak???... Or do you mean actually getting the correct IAT1 temp before it enters the TB? I'm guessing our cars also have a IAT2 or downstream air sensor as well to read the manifold temp so what does it matter? And if we don't, it needs to be placed as close to the TB as possible for accuracy.

Guys there won't be a dyno before and after from me... I'm in farm country, no dyno's around here.

MattP725 · 03-09-2012, 06:08 PM

I don't think the single filter design is an issue... as long as the filter stays clean it is always going to suck air through the membrane over trying to pull it from the competing TB. I'd be more concerned about the flex/shock of the system than anything else. That filter could take a potential beating if there isn't enough flex and it might eventually tear. I'm interested to see how this goes.

Suckers are now giving 15% off stuff till Friday. They just sent me the code EMR1212T so that makes them $378.67 shipped... Dang good deal. Thinking about ordering me some Eibach sway bars for $170.
