Z-tube or Stillen z-tube???

Was gonna order a stillen Z-tube or get an oem z-tube, but before I do...just wanted to see which one u guys thought was better? Also, would the oem Z-tube fit with the G35 factory intake box or is it to short? Thanks.

The OEM Z-tube, will fit (I'm using my friend '04 tube). As for which is better I say the OEM, cuz it one piece, and it smooth finish, the Stillen looks like crap.

the tubes are the same... one is just OEM and one is made by Stillen... the OEM tube has a smoother look to it but the Stillen is cheaper...

the stillen z-tube is specifically made for the G35, it's cheaper, and functions the same as the z-tube.

Someone is telling me that the 06 z-tube is diffent from the older z-tube like years 03-05. Is this true, are there any differences? I thought they were all the same. Thanks.

i think its the 07+up Z tubes that are different cuz of the dual intake from the VQ35HR. 03-06 Z tube should be cool.
