Beware, some local dealerships will charge 100+ bux for a tube. I was quoted 110 at my local dealer.

Actually the stillen comes in black plastic as well as polished.

Nissan dealer will overcharge you. Look in the marketplace and have one shipped!

BTW, they always say it's a different part but any Z from 2003-2006 will fit fine. But not the 07, that is the dual intake VQ35HR not the DE like in our cars.

They work identically, and make the same hp gains, it's just worth saving $70 for the stillen one honestly,thx!

you can find a used Z-tube for about 40 bucks. I my self put an add in South Florida Craigs list and got the answer that way. You can also try the WTB section in the forums here.
