The only thing I'm afraid of is if i put it back in it might suck up water again it sits to low and to close to the wheel area, you guys know if i can relocate the the filter head?

O Yea and does it matter what brand filter i buy can i buy can i buy any other after market filter head?
So the problem is fixed, you have a little noise, and you want to break it again?

Aside from possibly sucking water, didn't the Nismo intake have a broken part?

I think there are different filters available - just do some searching here.. But if you don't like the noise then switch back to stock (or turn the radio up).

edit - Don't you have a roadster?? And you are complaining about the little noise a popcharger makes? Drop the top and you won't hear a thing....

Put a new filter on it and leave it.
I bet you actually get something out of it with your front lip.
There is direct air going in from outside...

That filter is SHOT though.
Get a new KN and put it on there

Default Fender Roller

Has anyone here had their rear fenders rolled? If so, where? Better yet, does anyone have a fender roller device that I can borrow or rent? Thanks.

Car looks awesome!

Great coilovers to buy!!

Yancy, I have rolled fenders but never on a Z.
I do not know of where you can rent a fender roller either.
Maybe a shop will let you borrow there's if you have a good relationship with them...Just a thought.

Went to Dick Scott Tuesday. They offered $15,000 for my Z and darn near invoice for a 370 with the sport package. Only problem is that they haven't called back since I said I would put a deposit on it.
