First of all hello to everyone, My name is Jose Carlos, i am from Spain, and i have a Nissan 350Z VQ35DE engine. Here in Spain is not a very popular car so there are not many information about the car, so i am happy to find this forum plenty of experts.
Now my question. In few days i need to make a full service to my car and i want to buy a good sport air filter, because the oem i dont think is the best option.

I want to buy an air panel filter, because in Spain the MOT is a complete headache, you cant change anything in the car.

I was thinking in a Nismo sport air pannel filter, but is very difficult to find here in Spain and very expensive, about 150 us dollars.

I know that other companies made the products for nismo, for example, veruspeed make the oil filters, ngk make the nismo spark plugs.

So i need to know who makes nismo sport air filter, i think is very similar to the apexi, and the apexi in Spain is a lot more cheaper and easier to find too.

In other case, what filter should i buy?, i have read about k&n, Hks, afe, amc and similar, but i dont have clear what is the best.

Thanks and hope you can help me

 

I love my K&N. Super easy to clean and was a fair price considering I had to buy 2 for my VQ35HR.

 

Yes, k&n is one of big names in the business.
i think AEM is good too, some people says that AEM made the nismo air filters, but i dont believe because the Nismo are made in japan.
i think apexi make Nismo filters but i can't confirm it
Some years ago Nismo was dry filters but now are dry type.

Apexi Filter

 

Apexi looks very well, but i read that this filter is a paper filter and i didnt know, so i need to replace it in some kilometers, and i think the nismo too, so i think AEM, K&N and maybe AFE are better options because it can be cleaned and no need to change it.
still i dont know who manufactures the nismo filters.
