Search will tell you what is the best option. Injen, K&N, and a couple of others out there. Search....is your friend, not google.

Give him a break zc, he's swedish.

Laze, I'm guessing your S14 is a European model with either SR20DE or DET engine. If this is the case, your best bet is to get in contact with someone from Japan and ask them about intakes. We here in the US get a different engine (KA), so our intake kits won't work on your car.

I am sure Japanese companies like Apex'i, HKS, Blitz... and so on would have what you need. I know S14s are super rare in Sweden, so maybe get in touch with a German owner and see if they could get you an intake.

Hope this helps some. Good to see more Europeans on Zilvia.

Yeah, since VeilSide Euro made the umm...dam starts with a D, Evo 6 crazy azz kit. If your looking for a Evo type scoop hood, your looking for something that's Reverse scoop, correct? Not like something that gets in air like say Subaru's WRX and STi.
My hood is a reverse stlyle scoop, where air that's passing through the radiator will come out through the hood scoop and some what making lt keep the front end planted at high speeds. I read some where in a Young Version about how reverse type hoods, but the translation I did didn't make any sense.
Chernobyl is right about the intakes, and possibly the hood too. You might have dealers that resell quality hoods straight from japan.

Check www.takakaira.com and see their aerodynamic section, then search any store sites if they have what brand/model hood or scoop your looking for.
