Your brother probably had the cold air intake like AEM or whatever on his RSX. I had my friends RSX hydrolocked too. That's because those cold air intakes filter stays very very low to the ground. I believe it stays in front of the front wheel. I wouldn't worry about Stillen G3 on the 370Z since it sits up waaay high up. Take a look:

Lets keep this thread on topic. If you have questions about G3 intakes, take a look at this thread here http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...3-intakes.html . Thanks

Does this front have holes that guide air to the G3 intakes, that would be really and allow for better air to them? BTW this is a great front end.

^ Yup, there is an opening between the bumper beam cover and the top edge of the front of the bumper.

But thank you for your input. Once the complete kit is finished perhaps your opinion will change.

is there a finished product?

we are still awaiting stillen to finish a few things on mounting and install information before officially shipping out the products. they want to make sure everything is legit.

Red370 · 03-22-2010, 02:02 PM

man, i think this thing would look good with a carbon fiber overlay on the lip.

Kyle@STILLEN · 03-22-2010, 02:06 PM

We're finalizing a few things right now. During our testing of the fascia we found that the top mounting surface was a little thin and a little weak. We used the factory fascia for this section and it might have been a bit too thin. So, the craftsmen in the modeling shop worked on that on Friday and again this morning. We should know more this afternoon. I was hoping to have everyone wrapped up and shipped on Friday but as everyone has said, we would all rather wait until everything is perfect before we ship them out.

We're a few pages deep now so I though it would be a good time to recap some of the integrated features of the fascia.

1) Additional cooling- We opened up the main center opening to allow for a lot more air flow.

2) Even more airflow- We plan on offering an additional oil cooler which can be mounted behind the vent on the driver's side. For the guys who purchased the street cooler first, then the motorsport cooler...That street cooler fits perfectly in the side opening so you can now run both. This is what we plan on doing for our car.

3) Still more airflow- We have incorporated a small vent underneath the top section of the fascia. This small vent will help direct air to the Gen. 3's, supercharger intakes, and intercooler.

4) Brake ducts- We will be building some modular brake ducts for people who want to either keep the fang look or for the guy who just wants brake ducting. Either way, these will be 100% functional and work perfectly for both people.

5) Great looks- We wanted to keep this looking good but functionality was definitely the primary focus.
