Key Features
- Open-element filter layout: The cone filter remains in the engine bay and connects to the factory intake path through aluminum tubing.
- Dry, washable cone filter: The reusable synthetic filter does not require oil; inspect and clean it at approximately 15,000–20,000 miles under normal conditions, with more frequent checks in dusty use.
- Factory sensor retention: The kit retains the factory MAF, IAT, and PCV sensor ports so the original sensors and connections are transferred during installation.
- Two-piece aluminum tubing: Black powder-coated aluminum intake tubes form the primary intake path and are supplied with matching couplers and clamps.
- Hardware supplied: The package includes silicone couplers, stainless steel hose clamps, breather hoses, a mounting bracket, and installation hardware.
- Expected intake-only output range: Approximately 5–10 hp and 5–10 lb-ft on a stock VQ35DE; results vary with vehicle condition, calibration, installation, and supporting hardware.
- Intake tone: An open-element intake is intended to make the VQ35DE’s induction sound more noticeable under acceleration; sound perception varies by vehicle and use.
Who This Kit Is For
This Flashark Cold Air Intake is for 2003–2006 Nissan 350Z Z33 owners with the 3.5L VQ35DE V6 who want to replace the factory airbox and intake tract with a reusable dry-filter setup.
- For you if your 350Z has the single-intake VQ35DE configuration and you have confirmed the year, model, and engine.
- For you if you prefer a dry cone filter that can be cleaned without oil.
- For you if you are planning a VQ35DE build and want to review compatible 350Z VQ35DE exhaust headers.
- Not for you if your vehicle is a 2007–2008 VQ35HR 350Z with the dual-intake layout.
- Not for you if you require a sealed airbox or an intake designed around an outside-air feed.
Check Before Ordering
- Vehicle: Confirm a 2003–2006 Nissan 350Z (Z33) with the 3.5L VQ35DE V6. Do not order this kit for a 2007–2008 VQ35HR 350Z.
- Intake type: This Cold Air Intake uses an open-element filter design and aluminum intake tubing.
- Filter care: The included filter is dry and washable. Do not oil it; inspect it more often in dusty conditions.
- Sensor transfer: Transfer the factory MAF sensor and reconnect the retained IAT and PCV ports as directed during installation. Verify every connection and clamp before starting the engine.
- Legality: No CARB Executive Order number is supplied for SKU FLIS25019. Not legal for sale or use in California (and other CARB-adopting states).
- Installation and build planning: Allow approximately 45–60 minutes and use basic hand tools. If you are combining intake and exhaust changes, review the compatible 2003–2007 350Z/G35 test pipes and downpipes and confirm their separate fitment and legality requirements.
