The reason the Greddy looks almost identical to the Takeda is because it is. It seems they have entered into a partnership of sorts.

Interesting... Although since neither care to have published independent dynos, I can't really say anything on their Actual performance gain.

It's exactly the same. It's just private labelled.

I could name one or two other intake systems on the market that aren't made by the company whose name is on the box. At least one of which would probably make you raise your eyebrow. (Just one eyebrow, mind you)

I just installed the Injens and love them! But, I do not recommened them for a daily driver. If you just drive your Z on sunny nice days like me don't look back. I washed my car the other day and shined a flashlight to look down at where the filters sit and there was a little bit of water. I can't imagine what would happen if I got caught in a big rain storm and hitting puddles. I have a buddy that has the stillens and he likes my injens better because the intake sound is louder and you can modify the fang vent covers on the facia to make it like ram air. Ive also notice cooler engine temps. Throttle response is better and engine revs smoother.

The answer to what happens if caught in a big rain storm is - nothing. Twice I got caught, it was raining sidways. I drove 17 miles home both times from work. Not one issue to speak of. Ive also driven in many other rain situations with no issue.. Also with the car washing. Water doesnt float so it wont magically raise up. A little water in the well means nothing. It'll drain out and thatll be that. Unless you burry your front end in the ocean you'll be fine and if water intake worries you that much. Get the mesh water shields,

Hey Romulus1, I appreciate you sharing your experiance with the injens in the rain. That makes me feel a little less worried about it. I understand water doesn't "magically" rise up. I was just sharing my experiance and advising to be cautious.

does the Takeda reguire removal of front bumper facia?

Hey Romulus1 and SilvernightZ I want to share with you guys a problem that I am having with my Injen CAI.NO question it looks nice and drives faster but I would like to share with you. I washed my car and one time when I started the engine it was shaking and misfiring and it won't Rev up. I tried to drive it and it was going on and off on the road. I knew right away it was the CAI. Then last night it was raining here in sunny California and I was unfortunately caught driving my Z which I usually don't drive when it rains cause I have another car. Anyway I parked it last night in my driveway and today this evening I started the Z to move it inside my garage and it was shaking again and engine keeps dying. All the lights on the instrument panel came on . I tried to let it run for a few minutes and Rev it slowly and it won't rev above 3K. Then I tried driving it and it was the same as before it was going on and off and died on the road. I restarted it and finallly it is running again but I have the Service Engine Soon light now that won't turn off. I am so disappointed because how can a car not be driven in the rain or even on a car wash it gets affected! Now I have to go to Nissan so they can reset my service engine soon and then I am planning to switch back to the OEM air filters. it is just not worth the headache. Does anyone have this issue? Please share before I remove this intake and switch back to the OEM. Thanks

Yes, you have to remove the front bumper to install/clean the filter.


Have you had a Nissan tech, or someone else (autozone) check for a thrown code? If it's bogging down as bad as you say, a thrown code might help you see what the real culprit is before jumping on the CAI...
