Seal it into a cool box made from alloy sheet (or carbon fibre to look REAL cool:ph34r:) so it doesn't pick up hot under-bonnet air.

There's some pic's somewhere of how to do it, I'll look them up tonight.

Thanks Keith.......

Sorry Dude, it only fits the IS300, I don't think there are any Intake systems out there for IS200 and Altezza's...But there are plenty for SC300 / GS300 Aristos and Soarer.......

It costed me.....$180US = $307.80 NZD

$10US = $17.10 NZD Shipping

so $324.90 total plus cashier check cost and mailing fee.......so around $380 total.....:)

Has anybody located a kit for GXE10 Altezza (1g-fe) ???

Pipe with pod filter and panels etc...

Have just fabricated kit for mine, but quite costly. Bout $495 complete kit.

Checking if any alternatives.

No I have no idea where you can get a Full Intake system for the GXE10, The only alternative is a TRD Air FIlter or a Trust Which Gavin Now have on his Altezza.

When you mean induction kit do you mean pod air filter plus connection pipes?

I need to seal off my air filter aswell...........does anyone know if you can buy cold air boxes??

Hey all:

I have changed my mind about this intake...:( I heard alot of people saying this intake actually lose hp and its far too loud for some...do not want to ruin the smooth 2JZ engine...so I will go with something else.....Like a JoeZ intake (Which Naroka Has) or a ProLexPerformance Silent Flow Intake...these enclosed element intake make you feel air sucking in but not actually ruin the sound at all, and because its enclosed element it dosent catch up witht he hot air like Keith metioned here...so I will go with something else and will let you guys know...but I will be happy to get me german plates first...:D

Hey Lextcy...do you think I will seriously pay $1200 NZD for a intake??? most of the gain is just from the race ECU anyway...:), so yeah probly look for a old Area51 Intake I have been looking for one of those for ages.
