WTF, my SRI from Injen ain't fitting

xt_out · Jul 16th, 2003, 09:05 PM

well, im pissed. i went to install the injen short ram intake and the step up hose is too big to fit onto the throttle body. (yeah, i got all the way to step 2 b4 something went wrong.) did i get the wrong kit or what. plus the place i got it from won't take back custom orders, and if it is the wrong kit it's their fault!!!
the box says:
IS196OP
NISSAN 200SX SE 1.6L
NISSAN Sentra SE 1.6L
1995-1999

did injen maybe give me the wrong pieces?? its like i need some bushings. this isn't the only thing that doesn't fit. diameters are too big on kit pieces. SOMEONE THAT HAS INSTALLED THIS MOD PLEASE HELP.

hey bro i had a 95 nissan sentra gxe and i bought the intake, short ram, it fit fine. If you have the reciept dont hesitat to call injen and tell them. i lost the mounting hardware after i crashed the car and called them they had the part in my hands in like 2 days but i only live a couple hours away from them. but what i mean is they will take care of you if you just call them good luck bro.

im thinkin they sent me some wrong parts in the right box.
as for trying to tighten the clamps: there is about a quarter inch too much. like WTF the step up hose should atleast be snug. im not going to synch the slack with the clamp, the clamp should just be to make sure it stays on, ya know? i emailed them. could only find one addy and it was the warranty address. if anyone has a phone # that'd be great. noones written me back. DAMNIT.
ha ha ha. look at the avatar i just made. the stick guy is the dude who gave me the wrong part... too bad its too big to be used.

Mine fit on fine when I got it. All I can say is to call Injen and see what they can do. You probably got the 2.0 hose or something.

^yeah, that sounds about right. the box says sentra SE 1.6 L
why would it say SE anyways? not like they got a bigger engine.
besides, it says 1.6L right beside it. so its for sure the right box atleast. no ones answering my emails. i've sent two now and i don't think they're very good at responding. the first one was a couple days ago AND I WANT ANSWERS. whos got a phone# ??
