I figured it was about time for me to make one of these since there really doesn't seem to be a option out there. I stratched it out to put the filter into the opening for the stock air box so it will still draw mostly cold air. Welded in and threaded a bung for the Intake Temp Sensor and am using silicon couplers and stinless T-Bolt clamps. It also has a 1/2" port in the bottom for the breater line. It is 3" diameter and currently I am using a K&N RE-0930 cone filter alothough pretty much any 3" cone could be used. What do you guys think?

Nice work as usuall, and maybe a very good cost effective options. Seems most intakes for the J30's are really expensive.

Sounds like a AEM V1

As far as cost I was looking at $100 for the pipe, hardware (Including coupling anf clamps), the filters are avalible many places including Advance Auto Parts, the K&N is $40 from them. And for $25 I would powder coat it.

Nice job Paul, I was always curious about this because non of the major manufactures carry a short ram for the J series. I only saw the non brand ones on ebay.

There just aren't enough of us modding these cars for the majors to take the time to do many things for us.....

If I'm not mistaken, I thought these intakes are not good for the car because they bring in hot/warmer air from the engine bay than the cooler air that is in the bumper. Warmer air is less dense than colder air so it has less O2 in it, thus less power.

That's whay I have the filter on the other side of the battery, as long as you are moving forward you will be getting cold air up thru where the stock air box normally goes.

Nice, this might be my next upgrade and I could probably get mine pipe red anodized from the place that my company uses.
