lol i have tried founding a retailer but nismo owns it and I gues they dont sell these components to the general public, which sucks!! With that said, I am not sure if it's possible to get them from japan? I swear all I want is that competition engine components and the ecm and I am good to go on a road ready, reliable setup! lol

They won't sell, but someone is going to make an intake manifold with same style sometime later this year for the 370z, and we should get it by then.

Lets hope they do but I dont think it will add much more hp unless you get a custom tune for it. Then there is also the issue with hood clearance and clearence with the strut tower bar. I believe that nismo CF manifold along with direct port fuel injection, complete exhaust with headers and a good tune will add good power, but at a high cost.

GTM Made it

I came across this when i was looking at GTM website and searching for 370z intakes :






Yup, GTM going to make it, it says "In Development", now i wonder if it'll fit the G35/37 Sedans and what about the clearance.

^Thats not meant got VQ motor. It's just a random photo. Probably a GTR intake manifold.
370Z and G37 have the exact motor. Intake manifold is still the same. Im sure if GTM makes one, it will be pricey. Nice find bro

It's either a GTR intake manifold OR a proto-type for the intake manifold they're making, but the question here is, will it fit our G35 Sedan engine?

the VR38 and VQ35/37 are both VERY similar engines. So it's not really surprising if the manifolds look alike.
