Especially one that simple looking. I could cut and bend sheet metal and make one that looks just like that (okay, maybe not the vents). At most they should be charging 100 for that thing.

Hmmmm maybe some one can fabricate one just like it and become an inventor on the site. I'd buy it. Very nice by the way......

ARC, they are expensive because of the brand. I see $500 Gucci shirts looked like crap all the time...people still buy it...if they can afford it of course.

I can see that he is a ARC fan...strut bar, oil cap, radiator cap, radiator cooling plate and now the intake. Pretty nice if you ask me. Go JDM !

arc induction boxes look pretty fly, especially on cars where you see the filter, but ITB's look better

Hey spz33 how's it going?

The ARC looks cool but have to agree it's pricey. What's the material on the box is it titanium like their cooling plate?

It better give ME some suction for 600 bucks! I could get an Injen, a Las Vegas hooker and a bottle of Jack for less.

JDM BLAH! I bet if some other company made this say um... APC or even AEM nobody would even pay that much for this. You guys are brainwashed, okay I admit I love it But still damn thats expensive for a piece of metal. I guess its cool cause nobody really has it

The only thing it does is take a bite out of your wallet.

Phatmitzu,

Are you around the temple city? Seen you around there a few times (i think at Wamu atm) when i was not driving my Z. I remember seeing you had 2 stock wheels up front and the 2 rear Volks?

yeah that was me couple of weeks ago. I minor curbed my driver side wheel in the rain a while ago . Finally had the chance to fix the scratch. I didnt want to ride on 1 stock wheel so I had both the front swapped to my stock rollers. All 4 Volks are back on the Z now.
