You'd have to put the entire front end of the car under water.

Like drive down a boat ramp until the water is up over the hood.

Which would also make the stock boxes hydro-lock. (though it would probably kill the engine before it sucked enough water in to matter)

There is no way in hell you can hydro lock the Stillen G3 intakes. Take a look here for filter location STILLEN 370Z Generation 3 Ultra Long Intake Released! : STILLEN

For the gen 3s you have to shave part of the front core support. It's not just 100% bolt in. You will have to trim the support with a dremel tool around the hole where the intake tube goes to the front of the radiatior. If you are not technically inclined to do this i would just pay the fair price of 175$ and have someone with more experience do it. You have to remove the bumper and old intakes etc etc, things could easily get complicated if you're not a DIYer.
