I must be stupid or smth, but I dont get this. Why is the regular Z tube more expensive than the Stillen version of it?

^^reg. z tube

I am ready to buy the Z tube+ JTW pop charger but if it's the same thing and cheaper, i'd get the stillen z tube instead. (I do want the loudest combination if it makes any difference)

Again, sorry about the stupid question, I really hope there's an easy answer for this.

 

i would say most likely the stock 1 is being bought directly through nissan with a little mark up the stillen is always better over factory which in this case is basically the same thing, make their own products and can compete withother prices. they do the same thing

 

There's no difference between the two......Stillen or Nissan.

 

the stillen one is not as refined as the oem z tube. the surface is a bit rough compared to the z tube. it works the same, sounds the same. if you don't care how it looks like then get the stillen.

 

The difference in performance, if any at all, is negligible.

 

i first had the OEM z tube, but the vaccum hose connector broke and i found that it was not that sturdy. Then i bought the Stillen one which was cheaper and it was wayyy strong.. althought it may not look at nice but i think it is built better too

 

interesting. i guess i'll go wit teh stillen then since i dont care about the looks as much

 

I have a OEM Z-Tube from my friends ST 350Z, and there are three differences.
1) The Stillen Vaccum hose connector is on the top, and the OEM is on the
bottom.
2) The Z OEM tube is one part, and the Stillen is made up of 3 parts. I think you
only replace the middle section.
3) The Stillen has a rough finish, unlike the smooth finish of the OEM
