Here are a few pics:

 

Hmmm, guess I better figure out how to attach pics first.

 

Lets try this

Also did a little painting. It was my first real experience painting anything. Turned out the red I used was a little lighter then stock, and I will redo it in a darker red some day.

 

wow, that's pimpin! what red paint did you use? looks pretty good to me.

03 6MT coupe, red/willow, premium, aero, splash guards, alum pedals, clear corners, 15% tint

 

Forget the paint where did you get that tube. How does it sound compared to either stock, or the Plastic Z tube?

 

I think it's just a stock 350z intake tube (mynismo.com) and then he had it chromed. How much did you pay to dip the piece in chrome?

 

Now just get the JWT Pop Charger and the sound will be ridiculous!

Looks like he already has a K&N drop-in filter installed *note the sticker* =P

 

Yeah, I have a drop-in filter now. Gotta put that sticker on there so the dealer doesn't throw it out!! Intake pipe is a little deeper then stock under heavy throttle (which is to be expected), but not as loud as I thought it was going to be. Personally, I think it looks better then the Z-tube since it is chrome, instead of black, so I decided to go with it instead.

 

Is that a Z tube that's been chromed?

Or is a different tube altogether?

What is it and where did you get it (chromed)???

No it's not a chromed Z-tube. Its just a metal tube. Only costs $30 on ebay. There is one out there now. Here's the link:

Only problem is, I needed to get about 3 inches cut off to fit with the stock airbox. Also, the breather hose which usually connects to the top, now connects to the bottom. I may need to cut some of that hose down too, b/c now there is too much slack in it and it crimps up a little. I've ran the engine for a while, and felt the tube just to see how much heat may be getting absorbed, and the tube doesn't get that hot at all.
