You dickhead.
So you went out and bought yourself a genuine Nissan 3.0L snorkel because you have a ZD30 so OF COURSE you need the 3.0L one. And then you did your research AFTER your purchase and discovered that YOU WERE WRONG.
You were wrong because of this little fella:
That is a pre-cleaner. I stole the image from google images and zoomed right in cause that's just the kind of person I am.
The Nissan 2.5L snorkel has a bypass for this. So you probably shoulda bought that one. But you didn't. We're going in circles here.
"But wait!", you say, "...can't I just buy the bit of pipe from the 2.5L kit to get around that?".
NO. WRONG AGAIN. This just isn't your day, is it?
This is because it's all about holes. Two holes in particular. The 2.5L snorkel comes through the inner guard hole closer to the headlight, whereas the 3.0L snorkel pokes it head through the other one. Isn't that a pain in the ass?
ACTUALLY, NOT REALLY.
There's a guy on ebay called justimportparts who sells a bypass intake for us 3.0L snorkel'ers. Check out his items for sale. If you're reading this in the future on your iPad 37, then just ask your robot servant to google that shit. It looks like this:
Sick.
It comes with instructions. Here's a three step overview:
1. Remove the pre-cleaner and dispose of it thoughtfully.
2. Smoko.
3. Install the new pipe.
Goddammit it's that easy. So now you have removed the pre-cleaner and given yourself more sucking action and space for whatever you want. Just what you needed.
EDIT: at the time of writing this, justimportparts has none of these for sale.
