I just bought a hood scoop.. the same off of a 300zx.. Has anyone ever molded a hood scoop on their 4th gen max..Mine will be fully functional by the way.. Has anyone tried this????Thanks Peace

 

Good luck on the job. I dont think anyone here has done this before, be sure to post some pics when ur done!

 

it was done once really cheaply... some on the people in MA saw it done and posted a pic...

 

I havent heard that.. Hopefully someone can hook me up with a pic of the same car.. Doubt it tho.. we'll see.. Anyone else have any opinions or anything to add?

 

which year 300zx,i would like to have a nice looking functional scoop of some sort.

 

I saw the photo someone posted a while back. I think it was on a 3rd gen. It did not look real good, I don't think it was painted to match. Although I am sure if it was done right it could look pretty smooth.

 

go for it, let us know how it comes out

 

HAHA.. Hell yeah i'm gonna do this up.. Nobody's done it yet.. Ill be the first on the org. with a molded scoop.. Sounds good to me.. ill keep you posted everyone!!!Thanks.. any other comments, help, or suggestions?
Peace

 

hey go for it, i have my hoodscoop downstairs wating for mad cash to get it all done.

 

What about the louvers like on the older GP's? Not sure if the GTP's have them.....the older gran prix's did. One on each side of the hood....toward the right and left edges...functional of course....and painted body color

Hey, all is game.. do that up everyone.. I hope im the first to do it tho.. I just got a sarona front body kit too.. i cant wait to see how this comes out.. im gonna do something else to the front too that i guarentee hasnt been done.. if i have enough money... any other thoughts boys???

 

Those are the one's that I got. My body shop tech. is going to mold them in for me. It was a hard decision, though, because I wanted a Carbon Fiber hood. When I found that they don't make them anymore, I gave him the go ahead to do the louvers. It should be interesting to see how it turns out.

 

in my personal opinion (like anyone gives a damn) its not worth it to get a hoodscoop.

I was at the local drag strips here in california when I notcied a maxima with a molded hood scoop....in the middle of the hood...how is that of any use? it isnt.

I asked him why he had it done, he said "its looks cool" he isnt on the org.....and needless to say his max is stock.

I can see the hood scoop being of SMALL use if you mold it ontop of a JWT....but what about dirt and rain? would you trust your hood scoop in the rain? i know i wouldnt.

either way, good luck and dont go to any automatic car washes.

 

now if you put a lil intercooler underneath it, it would be nice and useful. I mean there are functional hoodscoops out there that dont seem to have any problems.

 

you mean like this???



And don't worry, pics of the hoodscoop will be unveiled soon enough.

Ill make sure i have something to keep dirt and other debris from flying in my engine..thanks for the heads up tho.. Do that hoodscoop up, right over the intercooler that ****'ll be hot.. hurry and show pics please..hahah just playin.. good luck.. thanks.. any other suggestions or comments???

 

what kind of intercooler is that?
that's a cool setup!

 

Thanks for the compliments... I figured everyone on the org had seen the car dozens of times by now. heehee...

And no Jeff you can't see a pic, stop IM'ing me about it...

Seriously, the new hood is being finished, still not even on the car yet.

 

what kind of intercooler is it?
from an eclipse?
Thanks
Love the setup

 

Bump Please

 

Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

I think this is it...

 

If it were an air to liquid you may be right, but it is not, hence the custom hoodscoop...

BlackV1...I honestly have no idea what car the Intercooler is derived from, I bought the Supercharger kit with that intercooler setup, I have just modified it a little, obviously it was bought used, not from Stillen that way.
