Does anyone want to challenge nissan into re-duing the manifold 95-99 max

I was thinking if Nissan would be able to re-due there mannifold design or make it a dual runner intake. I called Nissan because they screwed up on the foglights for my 99 max. I had one of the foglights ended up looking like a spotlight facing downwards toward the ground and not at the road ahead as it's supposed to before they re-did them. The long story short I changed the lights in for the other sets and it was still the same. I asked Nissan why there making them like this,they said the Nissan engineers changed the design. I called them and talked and it was a while before they changed there settings back to the Oem specs. The lights are finnaly perfect. I made this thread hoping that we can as a group see, what we can get Nissan to do for the mannifolds. I know this might be a challenge but, if were Nissan cutomers we can and should let them know.

No, this is completely ridiculous... they lied to you about the fogs as well

you think 99's were the first year with fogs?

97-99 have the same fogs and ive never seen issues reported.

there is NOTHING wrong with the 4th gen intake manifold.

This may be the dumbest thing Ive ever read on the forums. Does this guy realize that the DEK motor is the same motor with a newer intake manifold?

This car was design almost 20 years ago do you honestly think nissan cares? There is not a single VQ30 car that has a valid Nissan warranty on it and for that matter they dont even make VQ30s anymore. You think you can pressure them into making a better manifold for a 4 door seda.....you know what, go for it this should make for a good story.
