Posting for a friend. I just got into the Nissan world myself, and Im currently CA-less at the moment...lol. I've been doing a ton of searching online trying to find a performance/aftermarket intake manifold for the CA but can't find anything!!! I found this board thanks to a thread from 2004 about a member fabricating them, but tried his email & had it returned. Does anyone know who makes them? Or where I can find one?? Thanks in advance

I think you will have to go custom or get it from Japan.

Uum, try eBay. Nothing on there now, but some Taiwanese company keeps throwing them up on there periodically.

Whats wrong with the stock manifold though? Its by no means a bad design.

Stop looking. The stock manifold is perfectly fine and working well on many CAs in the 400hp range. Your money would be better spent buying a quality standalone so you can free yourself of the 18 year old harness and 8-bit computer.

Words of wisdom by themadscientist.

Theres a guy on here who fabricates them on these forums, CPC plennums is the company name and he is from Australia.
