Intake System

Would a weapon r dragon air filter fit on the G35 carbon fiber z tube?
The tube is 3 inches and so is the filter.

From experience anything that WeaponR makes isn't worth installing in your G35! Basically cheap Chinese poorly made trash that doesn't work or fit as intended. One day I'll post how I really feel about WeaponR products.

R2C hands down. Do some research on their filters, they absolutely rock. They make a lot of filters for military vehicles as well. You can buy the front end of the R2C set up for about what you would pay for a pop charger and the housing around the filter seals against the hood to help prevent heat soak. One of the few aftermarket filters that are designed correctly. Good read here: http://www.r2cperformance.com/techno...echnology.aspx

You don't want to just jab an open filter on the end of a z tube, you won't be happy with the results.
