home made z-tube (test)
i fabricated a z-tube from thin wall 3" PVC pipe, a 5/8" rubber groumet and 5/8" plastic 90* fitting from oreillys.
just wanted to see what the "hype" was with these "z-tubes" and to see if i wanted to spend $100 or so on an authentic z-tube.
it does sound better than stock and a little more responsive.
total cost $10 and 45 minutes(?) of my time
i would have include a pic, but size was too large(?)

theres a pretty common misconseption that the z tube is an aftermarket intake, it's the stock intake tube from the 350z... if you're lookin at spendin 100 you should look around harder
i would search the z forums, any of those guys who switch intake systems will likely sell their stock tube for pretty cheap i got mine for 30 bucks and a pop charger for 60 so i got a pop charged z tube for lower than what ur lookin at for jus the tube

The guy wants to save his money by making his own stuff and to see if it's good as a Z-tube...and then you started giving sh!tty comment instead of encouraging him? Actually, it's really sad to see this kind of people like you in this "VQ Community".
To original poster...keep us posting man. I always love home made and new inventions.

just me reading into this, "ricer" meaning "oriental", "japanese" perhaps?
who do you think designed and manufactored these vehicles?
and to anyone else who feels that "his" comment was not helpful,...let's not entertain him
