Since my bumper got owned by the piece of metal 2 weeks ago, I figured I'd change things up. Got the new one put on today w/ the Nismo V1 lip and Varis intake duct.

Unfortunately it got a tiny chip on it leaving the body shop so it's gotta go back and get touched up. Very pleased with the looks though. More pics to follow later...

 

Looks Great! Nice the way the Nismo sticker is over the duct. GOOD JOB!

 

Looks great!!

 

Nice

 

Thanks for the compliments!

 

shauny likey! Do you think the Varius duct makes a diff? Just thinking about the laws of physics and wind and what not, it seems like it wouldn't really matter at high speeds, but be more useful at lower speeds...thoughs?

 

It turns heads if that counts I really don't think it does anything, more for looks.

 

Were did you get the Varis intake duct. And how much did it cost you.

 

I got it from a friend. I think some of the vendors on here may sell them, or you can check eBay for some replicas for about $80 or so.

Edit: Just saw this...$170 shipped for Varis.

 

Nice. I see the scratch.

 

Yeah, that's the kinda luck I have. Leave the body shop w/ freshly painted bumper, get a chip. It's all good though, he's touching it up for me Monday.

 

WOW $170 I wish they were cheaper

 

looking good!

 

very nice

 

If you have a nismo CAI, care to guess what the duct is doing for you?


answer: absolutely nothing, the filter is in a completely different location lol.

 

Please link the pic again.. Its no longer showing

 

The duct does next to nothing regardless of what type of intake you are running. It's mainly cosmetic, results from it are minimal, if any.

Interesting, I can see it. I've linked a new picture though.

 

do you have any problems w/ the duct and the rain??? ive had friends who have messed things up because of rain getting to their intake.

No problems yet. I park my Z outside and it's my DD so it's seen plenty of rain. From what I can tell it doesn't let hardly any water in.

 

oh alright nice. thanks for the help.
