Posted October 7, 200915 yr comment_296709 Searched, but I'm not sure if I read it here or another "Z" site, but there was a disscussion about these vents (pic). For those interested they are being sold on ebay for $125 a pair. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/33450-hood-vents/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
October 7, 200915 yr comment_296730 Not sure that I get your post...are you looking for hood vents or are you the one selling those? If so, I apologize for the upcomming comments. Those aren't OEM (duh!) and don't look as good as OEM, in fact, they look ricey (IMO) and only fit a 77-78 hood. But, like I said, I might have missed the purpose of this post.

October 8, 200915 yr comment_296955 Ricey? It IS a japanese car afterall. I like them and am considering them for my 77 turbo car. Maybe they will match my ricey wheels.........

October 8, 200915 yr comment_296957 I believe they were discussed at Hybrid Z with regards to reducing underhood pressure. I know they were tested in the windtunnel and shown to have a positive effect, rendering them riceless in my opinion. For my money I'd buy some "alligator tooth" style vents, which are better at reducing underhood pressure, but probably more ricey looking.

October 9, 200915 yr comment_296988 I'm not suggesting not to buy them if you like them. I did state 'IMO' and I even apologized prior to the comment in an attempt not to ruffle any feathers....I guess that failed!

October 9, 200915 yr Author comment_297074 No need to apologize, as stated, I recalled a disscussion about the vents, they were being sold on ebay, and I am in no way connected with their sales. I repect your opinion Sblake as they are definately not OEM for purists sake. However, for those not so inclined I think they look good, but a little pricey IMO.
