fujita intake, most vendors i found hated them as a company, most were ready to stop selling their products all together. as far as fit,finished and overall quality its spot on. plus it has its own maf sensor mount, where many others use a big portion of the old one.

ya little things like shift knobs go far in the driving "experience"

i warned him about getting a metal one, and 3 hours after putting it on, he now sees why i bought the derlin/plastic nismo one.

What is the warning about the metal one? Just that it gets really hot in the sun or some other issue?

I've had a metal one before and yes they get very hot. You need gloves during the summer to drive with one. I would still get one again and I like the looks of the one in the post. You just have to know what your are going to put up with.

Started picturing Edub with a GTR...I had to stop......

Southern Johnson County at 199th/US69 Hwy...it is a township, so you won't find a city of Stilwell.

MapQuest Maps - Driving Directions - Map

I live in gardner on the map.

I would say Edub's estimate would be about right.
