Hey Y'all,

Just came across your forum today so I thought I'd drop-in and say hello. As you can see from the pics of my current car, I'm a big supporter of the brand and I look forward to sharing some info with all of you...

Front-mount-intercooler sorry. I just assume everyone knows lingo lol.

How does the STS hold up to all that rubber flying up? Lol.

I always liked their kits, but was weary of the piping and of it setting so close to the ground/in the way of the tires, etc.

Have a buddy going for the race-spec kit for his 350Z, so I guess I'll see first hand lol.

Like the car. Doesn't look riced out like most tend to with aftermarket aero parts.

AAhhhhh, don't spend too much time on these things these days so I'm a little out of practice...
I started with a "FMIC" but in trying to get nose weight off the car (in version 2) I moved it here:

it doesn't see any rubber because the air cleaner lives in an "airbox" inside the trunk, fed by two duct hoses that run to the quarter-panel intakes.

If you clear everything by 1/8", you're clear...

I've driven a few Z's with their kits on them and they're pretty fun. Just remind him not to throw too much boost to the stock short-block cause they don't like much over 400rwhp. If it's got good internals I've seen over 600 with no problems...

Thanks, AIT built the wide-body kit for it. I was looking for something more like the DTM cars but this was the closest I could find without going "ricer"...
