Is there any research and design occurring for the Nissan Altima Coupe 2.5s???

I am already on the mailing list for updates.

I was just wondering if there is any future plans.

I am a member of Nico, and would like to relay this message to to the other members.

Some memebers like myself are holding out on purchasing an intake and are waiting for a K and N.

At the moment i am thinking of purchasing a Fujita Short Ram Intake (SR 2825), please don't let me make this mistake. Injen is out of the question. Those are the only 2 companies that make intakes, besides Stillen has an intake for the 3.5 liter.

I will be posting this on the forum, if you need a car to do r&d on i can post for that also

thank you very much for you time

danny

not come out sounding rude, but i've been bugging K&N with phone calls and emails for sometime now. If you go to their site, they have a HUGE list of cars they need RIGHT NOW, currently. They'll take your emails and whatnot, but pretty much tell you to contact them again, once the car is listed on their list. They need to get through over 70 cars first, in order to even get to the altima coupe's. Best bet would just to check that list daily, then pray that you're the first one to call.

they have their job cut out thats forshure, there are soo many cars on there on list, if you check their website, last week when i looked it was 70+ cars. and those cars range from the 03/04's to the 08's. K&N told me our cars are on the list, but towards the bottom. It'll take them a long time.

R&D is mostly done just waiting for first articles and fit checking - 60-90 days to release I'm going to guess.
