Soo my intake hose (between airbox and throttle body) has developed a crack or 2 where can I find a replacement bc I cant find it on rockauto.com and Autozone and Oreileys cant find it in there system and there arent any nissan dealerships near me.

Mine cracked a few years ago and spit out one of the plugs.. causing my engine to cut off in the middle of the road.

I posted a wtb thread and ending up scoring one.. there's plenty of people that have Volant or other aftermarket intakes.. someones bound to have one laying around

If not, here's the link to get one online

Make sure your left engine mount isn't broken. That will cause splitting and cracking too.

Leave the hood up, look at your engine through the slit in the open hood while you're inside, put it into low (or 1st if you're a manual) and gun the throttle while standing on the brakes (or pop the clutch a bit). If the engine moves a ton, bad motor mount and your new intake tube will split again shortly. We just did the repairs on one with a busted motor mount after it died going around a corner on a highway onramp.

My engine mount is broken I havent had time to change it but its been chained down. I was thinking about just replacing it with a standard hose but then idk what would need to be done with the 2 smaller vent hoses that attach on the frontside.
