How the heck is it supposed to get air when it's practically sealed in once the bumper cover is back on???

Magic?

because when it's sealed off, it's not 100% sealed off. there is still plenty of air around where it can get it from. The Acura RSX intake is almost exactly like that. only bad part is whenever it would rain my intake would get soaked and i would have to drive extra careful so that it doesn't suck water in. not sure if those would get wet as well on the 370z

Went for a fun little cruise today. It is about 74*, low humidity and a nice breeze, it doesnt get much better than this.

I know this feel. I had a ****** up knee, doctor told me no driving my car at least because it was a manual. I disregarded him and ended up having a really bad time

Rain wouldn't be an issue on this one. Not a chance. Literally the only open part is the gaps left around the tube going back into the engine bay.

I'll give it a try, but not terribly sold on the design. There might be a way to open it up into the grill inside the fangs, like how the Stillen brake duct works.

Will see what happens.

Yeah, just like that except instead of ducting up towards where the factory airbox would have been can cut a hole in the panel to the side and pump it into the new Injen filter location.

Would be pretty straight forward. Thanks for the link.

The new Injen washer fluid bottle doesn't clear the LED lights in my bumper. Had to massage it in there.

But in any case it's in. Time for a shakedown run :)

Same way the stock air intake setup does :)

Took the day off work and spent the afternoon with the Z...Swapped my OEM plugs for GTR plugs... installed a CJM fuel tap with mini-pressure gauge... and installed the boost sensor for my boost gauge.

Except that they go to different places and there is a block off plate in between - which I did remove when I buttoned it back up to be able to get some fresh air in there.

Installed my Swift springs and 25/20mm wheel spacers. Makes a huge difference in the look of the vehicle for relatively cheap!
