When will we see an after market intake manifold ?

Why there is no Intake manifold/plenum or even a spacer for our engine until now? no one made it, you guys think the HR intake manifold is good as it is? or do you think they'll start to show up because the 370z just came out and we'll tons of stuff for the HR engine?
Too bad the headers on the 370z won't fit the G35/37 sedan.

i asked a few tuners around my area and they said that our cars are good as is and will not support plenum or spacers from the current market.

No spacer for the HR motors because it's plastic intake manifold is one piece.

They are not going to show pics until it is close to being released, but they claim a new manifold is in the works. I guess we will have to wait and see. I don't know the exact reason why they need one; they are not doing a roots type blower that will mount to the manifold (I am pretty sure they are using a Vortech V-3 head).

Take that idea off your head, they'll screw up your car instead, save money for S/C.

Btw, someone MUST and will make intake manifold, Cosworth maybe, but we have to wait and see, something must come out.

Stillen headers for VQ35HR sedans: http://www.g35parts.com/Stillen-Head...-p/508385x.htm

Does anyone have these and if so, was it worth it?

I bet cam modeling on the HR35 and HR37 due to the VVLT has to be a nightmare

I doubt that they'll fit the sedan, because Stillen made those for the coupe and 370z, no one has made a short headers for the sedan yet, beside i won't buy anything made by Stillen, their finishing sucks.
