I sent the company an email a couple of days ago to see if they had any new products for the m37 and this is their response.

Good morning,

Does your company make an intake system for the Infiniti M37? I have heard that the intake your company makes for the G37 can fit the M as well. I have seen this done to an M on line, here is the web site. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question

post6645020.html?hilit=R2C#p6645020


and here is their response

Hello Mr. Ashford.

Thanks for writing.

We have not created a specific intake for the M37 application simply due to a lack of inquiries/requests.

Having said that, it’s conceivable that the G37 system may fit well, although I have not personally installed one.

Regards,
R2C

So I installed the intake.and I'm pretty happy with it.improved my exhaust tone a bit and between 5 k and 7k Rpms. it comes alive.you really hear it then.install was easy.I roughed up the edges where the cone filters go on cuz they kept sliding off.and I use Stanley brackets from lowes to secure filter boxes.I plan to paint them asap.along with the stainless steel lock nut bolts I bought.since I cut holes for the takeda intake I get air under the cones and directly from the stock ram air duct thing.which shoots cold air instantly into the filters And around the intake cone boxes.I'm much happier with this mod over the takeda.

Looks great man. I'm glad someone else did this mod. The R2C intakes are great and it doesn't take much to get them installed. Very easy.

Get yourself a cheap OBDII scan tool and read the code. Could be a simple fix.

Check to make sure you don't have any air leaks at the vent hoses (or that the hoses don't have any kinks in them) and at the throttles. Check to make sure your MAFs are installed properly. I haven't gotten any codes since installing last November.

Also reading the code will tell you exactly what's going on. I use the Torque App and a cheap eBay OBDII buetooth tool.

Thanks. Have you had a chance to install the arms yet? I know it's listed on the site as fitting but I'd rather have the confirmation from an actual owner.

Man if they fit, I'm going to be both happy and pissed. I had those arms for my M45 and sold them not thinking they would :tisk:

Sorry the finish is going bad on you. I have the flat black finish for about 10k miles now between the 2 cars and it still looks like the day I bought it. Would R2C warranty it? Did you use any cleaners on it? That could be an issue if you used an aggressive cleaner on a finish like that. I've only ever wiped mine down with a damp cloth.

Glad you got this installed. I had the same exact installed on my G sedan and I just love the sound these intakes made. Also at the same time I felt the R2C intake made my car much more responsive on the lower end.

Has anyone approached R2C about making a set for the V8? Do we have any M56 members located in IL?
