Availability of Cold Air Induction system (V6) in Canada?

Postby sealy » Sat Mar 03, 2007 11:49 am

I've got a 99 3.0 litre V6, and I am having a hard time finding anyone that carries the cold air induction system for it in Canada. I may have to pay a premium ordering from the States.
Anyone have an info on Canadian distributors of Injen or other manufacturers?

Why aren't you buy it from States ?? I bought 99% of my parts in US ! Since our dollar is strong enough, the price get cheap enough to get even with the shipping and customs compare with the Canadian price. The best savings US purchase for me are all the TRD parts that I bought from www.trdparts4u.com

No one makes a true cai. There have been extensions avalable for injen but you can make your own. Just look on ebay for any CAI with a 90 degree bend and 2.75 in piping it is all you need.

But if you want real power search for CPE and then get one of those.

For all you Canadians out there who cannot find performance parts for your Solara without importing them from the States, I have found a place to get them. Lordco Auto Parts is a large chain (about 90 store) located in British Columbia. They have a performance department that deals in many of the brands that are sold in the States - eg., Ingen, AEM, etc. Orders from the US usually take 4-6 weeks, but for a $30 charge, you can get your order in about 1 week.
From many of the US parts outlets, I found shipping charges on a cold air intake, regardless of the maker to be an astounding $139.95! They all seem to use the same online help service, and have identical prices, or will meet the lowest price of a (so-called) competitor. Sounds like price fixing to me.

Thanks...do they have a website ?? Regarding intakes...are you choosing CP-e and tune it ?? You'll probably have exhaust mods...I think you would really take avantage of the CP-e AFR customization !


I found it...http://www.lordco.com

You can buy the injen and buy off ebay the cheapo honda civic cold air intake and cut it up to make the extension.
