Looking for a Stock 2002-2003 Intake Manifold for testing.

Just wondering if anyone can donate or lend us an intake manifold so we can get it on a flow bench and start our intake manifold process.

So what? More options mean better mods at good prices. Competition is good. No one has produced and distributed a tried and true (generally accepted) IM yet. Dont discourage anyone who wants to get their hand in the pot.

Plus we are talking about 2 very different products. There is room for both if it comes to that.

SSR if you can't find one on the forums, you should be able to find it cheaply at junkyards. Even buying one new from Nissan shouldn't be to expensive.

I think the problem with finding one at junkyard is that they still need a car to test it on.

Right now it only applies to the 3.5L maxima, however... If you 4th and early 5th generation guys have enough interest then we will make one for that vehicle as well.

Someone also needs to take a hit and donate their 5.5 gen for some weeks for SSR to develop their turbo kit for the 3.5L maxima. SSR will give you a discount on the kit as well and You will be thanked greatly by the maxima community. This is a chance for us to get some mods and stay one step ahead of the Altimas (who seem to get more attention than us). The altimas already have a turbo kit. I just say a video of a turbo altima and my jaw dropped. Simply amazing. I would donate my car if I could, but I dont live on the same side of the country.

I have a 02 Maxima thats been sitting in my garage for about 2 years now and only driven it about 1500 miles in the last two years. I've been seaching for a turbo or supercharger kit ever since I bought the car new in Nov. 01.
I even been to 4 different shops around Florida hoping to custom build one. All said the same thing "not enough room under the hood". I would lend my car in a heart if they were closer. Havent sold it yet, still waiting for a good kit to come out.
