the intake that is straight tube without disconnections is an older model of the nismo intake. I beleive it was a v1 or v2. The latest one (v3 i believe) looks just like the one you pictured. I was told by jason that the single tube (older model ones) had some trouble which is why nismo decided to switch back to the seperate tubing. In my opinion, the single tubing looks a lot better...

back to the cleaning of the nismo CAI
can you really go 15K with out cleaning (re-oiling it)?
i thought you had to to it alot more often. im on my 22d filter for the nismo CAI, my first one tore off!
ive got around 5K miles on it how much longer do you suggest i go
when will it start to cost you HP?

It comes with the bypass and a coupler for the lower pipe connection. I chose to use the coupler and have the bypass sitting on my counter top.
one if the differences between the V1 and V3 is the filter placement. the V1 is palces deeper down behind the wheel the V3 is at more of an angle where you can actually see a little of it. i have a V1 and i cant see my filet hardly at all. nismo thought the changed placement would allow it to breath better and get less dirty

The general rule of thumb is that the filter needs to be cleaned when the dirt build up gets as thick as the wire mesh. The usual interval is 30,000 - 50,000 miles depending on driving conditions. We recommend that you check your filter about once a year in normal usage.
