i just finished installing a cold air intake on my 2003 350z and everything went great it sounds great theres like a whistle sound when you start to rev the engine and there is an improvement in the take off right from the start at 0 mph. anyways my question is the intake pipe/filter kind of hits the wheel inside plastic fender lining and pushes it out about another half inch or so. the inside fender lining went in like normal and fit except on of those push in screws right by the back of the tire i couldn't get the push in screw to its hole because the intake pipe is in the way. well i checked the steering and its fine the tire doesn't rub against the inside plastic fender lining or anything but it is pretty close. im just a little concerned about this its fine but i would sleep better at night knowing i could put in that last push in screw so the inside fender would go back a little more. has anyone had this problem and if so how did you ajust the intake to have everything fit and not have the inside plastic fender pushed out a little bit. any help would be appreciated

You did! And he STILL hasen't seemed to be able to find the intake and exhaust section! At least he's getting closer.

Why do you have a *nismo* badge on a stock car?

You didn't know they made a Nismo edition in 2003?? It's a secret special one, only a handfull were sold to VIPs.

He could of at least put it on straight!

 

I drive a 2003 350Z and installed a Nismo air intake. In rainy situations my car will cut out at higher rpms 4000+ and not rev up more than 2500 rpms without cutting out. Once I shut the engine off it seems to reset the computer and as long as don't excede say 3000+ rpms it will run fine, but once I try getting on it, it cuts out with same outcome as before. Moisture to the mass air senser seems to be the problem...Once things have a chance to dry out and have dry driving weather the car run great. Has anyone had a simular problem??

 

No, this is not normal. try adjusting your intake. do you have a bypass thing installed?

also my filter use to hit the plastic wheel well before but i had to play around with it a little and now it clears.

 

I do have the bypass valve in place (from the begining)...haven't driven through high water or anything
