They said it wouldn't be worth getting them in because it would cost over $1000 per rim for the 19" Forged Rays that are in the states...

Guys,

Just got my 370Z
didnt have time to read through all five pages of stuff hahaha but im interested in getting a better intake system...

Not too fussed over the exhaust system for now (unless you guys get a real good deal coz cash isnt that readily available at the moment).

Was looking at the Intakes on the Stillen website... there seems to be a thousan there... what would you guys recommend for best sound and best power gain.

Let me know before you buy! I want a mean induction noise to match the mean-ness of the rest of the car :P

The 19"'s would be real nice to have thats for sure. Though for a possible $1k a corner, i reckon we could get better rims i.e. lighter, style (each to their own there). The other thing would be how the car would handle on the 19's, if our suspension settings are any different?

Hi there gromano. The Stillen Intakes you want are the G3 Long Tubes, this is where we (QLDr's) are getting them from. Kyle from Import Parts has been great to deal with. There are plenty of other vendors out there, this just happens to be where we or going to.

Most reports i have read on here, they are getting 12-17rwhp without any other mods done. Personally i would rather go exhaust first i Money was tight. Thats just my preference, as i love the SOUND of a good exhaust. They are getting similar power gains, if not a few more.

Hey, when is everyone thinking of buying the parts? I think I get my car in 2 weeks now, apparently it lands at the docks on the 15th

Should be a further 10 days till it's ready for pickup.

MrBMW and Ellz and I have ordered and paid for parts already.

Ordered Stillen G3 CAI and FI CBE with 18' Resonators and carbon fibre muffler.

No doubt there will be another group by happening soon enough as a few more people pick up their cars !!!

Aus370z whats the ETA, I'm very interested in your review, any chance of some sound clips. I'm considering the 18" resonators with original cats as I still thought the 12" in the FI video had drone or humm on highway.

Cant wait to see these on some Aussie 370'z

Not sure on the eta as yet.... If I had to guess I would say 3-4 weeks.

Should know more next week.

Once installed I can definitely do some photos / videos and a bit of a review!

evse82 · 08-07-2009, 07:05 PM

wha?? lol I thought you guys hadnt ordered so I was waiting for you guys.....

If we want to add stuff to the 3*G3 Intakes let me know and i'll fire off some more emails to get prices etc. I'll send him one now to see if there will be much difference in shipping to one Address or splitting the order State by State. Just so there is no confusion, this is for the STILLEN/Berk stuff from Import Parts Pro or their Vendor Section.

So if parts a wanted through Import Parts and are happy with me organising it, PM what you want and i'll email them to get prices (shipped to QLD and or VIC).

Thats awesome to hear evse82, it's great to see that your car is finally about to turn up, It feels like you have been waiting for ever. I know your going to enjoy so much once you actually get into the car. I even let the WIFE

take it for a spin yesterday.

I tole her to take off the traction control, never again. She scared the **** out of me LOL. Although she had a smile from ear to ear.

Sorry about that. I did post last week that we were ordering (up top) and to shoot me a PM or Post if others wanted in. As Aus370z mentioned Ellz, Aus' and myself have gone for the Stillen G3 Intakes and the F.I. RTP's/CBE with CF Muffler setup. Both Tony and Kyle have been great to deal with at this stage.

Hi AH', the CBE from F. I. will probably be closer to 5-6wks due to the back log Tony has at the moment which I think latest was about 4wks (thats for building them), then we have shipping. So just as long as the US guys, just that it has to travel a few THOUSAND more km's LOL.

As for drone, no a single person that has it installed is reporting that at all. The Exhaust thread HERE (page 25+ on 30 posts a page) and the SALE THREAD. A few have had them installed now and all are happy. It's louder and thats what we are after firstly. We honestly must have diff' ideas on Drone and thats all cool.

Listening to the Videos through HT System, it sounds great. You can barley hear the Exhaust over general road noise on the Freeway/Tunnel runs. I would say if you want to keep it a bit quieter, stay with the standard Cats and just go for the CBE and leave HFC's alone. Then add in the intakes and still will have a nice little power bump.

Will definitely do some videos. We could maybe hook up together and do some good drive by's and if one of us gets one installed first also do a compare back to back as well.

Delivery, I think the Intakes will be quicker (assuming they are in stock) and we should get ETA first thing this week. The CBE I think will be as I wrote above.

MrBMW · 08-08-2009, 06:12 PM

Hey Guys,

I though i would add another post here for those that want either something from either the F.I. CBE, SALE HERE Exhaust thread HERE or the Stillen Intakes from Import Parts Pro. Import parts also have a lot of other stuff if you have a look around there.

I'm more than happy to do another buy, now having dealt with both a lot over the last week. If you guys want i'll start another thread for another group BUY for everyone else. We also decided on doing Door-Door shipping as well. Only added about $50 USD to the WHOLE order.

Also if you do it quick enough I might even be able to add to our current buy. If so let me know ASAP via PM and i'll check with Kyle and Tony. Prices for the Exhaust is in thread above and for the Intake i'll let you know via PM.

Cheers

Majestik · 08-08-2009, 08:36 PM

Hi. Has anyone got quotes yet for fitting costs for both the intake and exhaust system? A rough estimate would be great. Thanks guys.

Aus370z · 08-08-2009, 08:49 PM

We were quoted $88 / hour.

They weren't sure how long it would take as they havent done one before.

gromano · 08-11-2009, 09:54 AM

Awesome james, you guys get the stuff and chuck it on for the next meet so I Can hear it all

By that time ill have enough money too and can do the upgrades aswell!!! hahaha wat an awsum plan :P
For now its just very cheap cosmetic things for me.
I bought velcro stickers for the back boot pad that slides around constantly! Best $4 i have spent on the car so far hahahahahah
Also getting some little blue lighting inside the boot to match the exterior colour of mine

And got a Dyno day coming up with some mates... will post up the results when i get them in!
