Stillen released the 3rd gen Intakes for the 370z but not ours!!
WTF is wrong with Stillen?! Why on earth would they do the 370z first and just forget about the HR folks with the 350z? They even did the G35/G37 models.

why not just get the injen intakes? they're pretty much the same thing and quite a few members have seen really good gains with them (12-15 whp gain iirc)

Huh?
Probably because its a brand new car and the current model. You can get used to seeing less and less products coming out for the 350z and it makes perfect sense.

Edit: It also looks like it wont clear the 350z front bumper. Seems that they specifically state "G35 Sedan" which has the same exterior dimensions as the G37 Sedan.

The way I see it is... The HR guys are willing to drop the dough just as much as those that bought the 370Z. I am in the market for things that fit my HR but keep hiccuping cause things I want/need are not available for my car or I have very little choices.
I would have gone for a 370Z but it is in its first stages and would rather wait. The money is there for both the 350Z HR and the 370Z guys/gals that want to mod. They need to get on it....

I agree with most of what you are saying but not all of it.

I know you want more options but from an intake POV we really aren't in too bad of shape. The Stillen design is practically identical and I would guess would make maybe 1-2 more hp then the injen just because teh piping diameter woulnd't shrink as it bent in front of the front bumper. And I would assume stillen would charge more for thier product because they are Stillen lol. Other areas of performance I agree that we need more options but we don't really have any control to be honest.

Buy another fuggin intake and move on. Stillen is not the best by far anyway. ARC would be much nicer.

My two cents...
In the interest of preserving factory intake NVH (Noise, vibration and harshness - intake roar noise is good, BTW), I prefer the injen intake. I prefer the clean look of the one-piece intake tubes and I like the rubber hose section that passes throug the radiator core support. At first I wanted Stillens on my HR, but when I saw the injens installed, it occurred to me that I would not want the metal pipes of the Stillens hitting the core support as the engine torques back and forth.

HR two year run. DE non-rev two year run. I'm guessing if the HR is in the minority it's because Nissan only sold a hand full compared to previous generation engine.
Either way you slice it I'd soon have my HR in a 350z then a 370z. But I'm weird.
