Hood Scoops That Works

Where Do You Get these (like this one down) and how to install? do you have to have a new hood...Does a scoop with a short ram intake related to it push more power then a CAI that goes outside the engine bay?

Sounds like a good idea, but damn bro. You'd be killing the sleeper effect, you know?

That's either custom or a stick on GTS scoop.

That was custom made. I spoken to this kid. He's from CA, and he's on the maxima.org. His maxima was repainted 3 times, because he wanted a NEW look, hehe. The color that u see on that picture, is his original color, after that 2nd color was orange, and 3rd color was Skyline Blue. I think his maxima is TURBOed now. Not sure tho.

that's a beautiful car, i'll tell ya that. Love the scoop, too bad it is custom made and not in mass production. I would love to do that to my car but like Spaz said it would be killing the sleeper effect.














All hail the mighty Nissan.

As of now CustomMaxima.com is having a contest to get a good hood scoop design, then will have another one of those "release" dates.
Theyre making the whole hood in CF or FG not just the scoop.
