Where to buy Type N Hood Vent - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

The ROMAN · 05-02-2008, 09:47 PM

Looking for a place that sells the Rivet/Bondo-on hood vent on the east coast. I know Jspec sells it, but I'd prefer to not double the price with shipping. Anywhere else?

What I'm talking about is this:
http://www.jspec.com/typenvent.html

Thanks

Why not just order it from jspec?

I probably will if I can't find it anywhere else, but with shipping from CA it's $150 more for a $180 vent. Might as well just buy the hood.

Well that's a copy of the uras type n vent but that will be even worse price wise. Jspec is the only place that I have ever seen that vent.

mach v motorsports used to do stuff like that but i didnt find anything on their site just now, and i checked ebay for you too, more vent-a-hoods then hood vents...jspec is probably your best bet man. yeah, its pricey, but you pay to play ya know? unless you're willing to take the D.I.Y. route...

I would try to make one myself before I payed anywhere near 300 bucks for one.

Two of these:
http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/p..._Fiber_Ducting
or
http://www.hrpworld.com/index.cfm?fo...action=product

Cost would be similar to having the Type N vent sent from JSpec, but with less weight and more awesome.
