Hey im looking at getting this intake for my 08 g35x. i just wondered if anyone has had water issues due to this intake being so close to the ground. i DD my G so i would have to use it in rainy weather. If i could get some feedback i would appreciate it. and has anyone ordered anything from this website: www.modacar.com

Thanks alot

 

Check the marketplace, you will find a better deal. And you just have to replace the weathering every other year or so....

 

Yeah I checked marketplace and best deal there was 4900 shipped

 

seems a bit steep

 

Thats really cheap, you are getting one heck of a deal on the market place.

what r u talking about steep?

 

Really? Well if 490$ is a deal I guess I better order it from modular.com for 420$ that would be a steal then right?

 

^ No that is actually really high. If you search around here you will find most ppl went a different route for cai, z-tube and drop in filter. It really depends on what you want since none of them improve performance. The only rec I can make is to get a full length tube, like injen, because short ram configurations for sure have associated power losses...

 

You missed my sarcasm, my bad. You mentioned a market place price of $4900.

 

there are hydroshields you can buy from Injen.

 

i never had a problem w/ these intakes. maybe because it don't rain here. But if you know the road stay away from flooded areas. Other then that you should be fine. had mine on the car for just about 3 years now.

 

dont bother with an intake, oem is best

 

I think the stillen long tube intake is better than the other aftermarket intakes for the v36 platform

 

I have one on my G35 and I cant even drive it in the rain... It sucks up water like a shopvac.

 

^ i been driving mine in the rain and had no problem. Why is everyone having problems w/ theirs?

 

Idk but this is making me lean to something else, I can't get flooded out!
