just a random thought, the Z33 was the first Z to have the airbox inside the engine bay, all proir Z's had factory cold air

I know that I dont have a factory cold air. Also I know K&N is a good brand for cold airs any other good names for short Rams or cold air?

Be careful with a CAI. Heavy rain + big puddle = hydrolock, or at least the risk of it. That would ruin your day. Don't know what your weather's like, but I wouldn't take the risk.

Very Nice, How much Hp did it add? Also Price and place you bought it from. Did you install that yourself or did someone do that for you?

Thanks! Any kind of cold air intake, you will gain some hp.The JWT improves the look of the engine bay, sounds pretty cool & may give you some extra hp....plus you'll save some bucks for other mods! I paid $99 shipped several years ago.Now, you can buy from courtesy parts or from Kyle at http://www.importpartspro.com using this code discount for 10% off. Pop350zMotoring $98.99 + shipping.

Even cheaper w/special code....$93.....http://www.nissanztrader.com/v...00014

Yes I installed it myself...it can be tricky & just like anything else, a little improvising will need to be done.Two important notes:1. Make sure the pop charger does not rest on the aluminum AC tube that lies beneath it. Some have had a hole rubbed in the tube & resulting in a $200 bill to fix.2. Most importantly, make sure before removing the MAF, look closely and you'll see 2 arrows, make sure when you put it back that the 2 arrows line up evenly.3. Enjoy the extra added growl......Good Luck!
