Plenum Spacer Group Buy

[V35_Paul]

Ok got my kit the other day, just have to find a spare day to install it.

Was reading through the instructions and it makes reference to diagrams that don't exist and I believe would be relevant. It also mentions that you should drain the engine coolant, do you know if this was done on yours Paul, just that the videos and DIY don't mention it?? (As far as I could see)

Didn't drain the coolant. I just did a basic job. unbolted the plenum put the spacer in and put the new bolts on. Sweet . If you could wait untill the cruise i could help. but it does take about 30 min to an hour to put on.

Just follow the online instructions. http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/274245

See the green blots i had to use some multi grips to get them out. they where destroyed trying to get them out.

Don't be shy just get in there

Hey Pulp did you get your spacer in?

[Touge Kyousou]

The green bolts can be undone using a 4mm socket.. just in case you go back to stock later.

Anyways, good mod. Excellent bang for buck and it's something you'll feel. I run the motordyne basic. Easy as install.

Ok to throw something else into the mix, has anyone had any experience with the larger replacement plenums? From what I read same deal but it's the whole plenum.

I was also wondering in regards to the skunk2 spacer, what aditional work/modification is done to adding the spacer? Something about the TB heater?

Thanks

The skunk2 is the easiest one to put on. you don't have to do anything but put it on.

obviously the research says if the larger the plenum you get more top end power but lose the low end power.

I *finally* installed my spacer, along with a true dual exhaust and Z-tube on Monday. There is a very noticeable increase in power with those bits.

My mechanic's comment was the spacer and z-tube combo seemed to make a bigger difference than the spacer alone. He thought those 3 bits were worth ~30hp in total. Overall seems well worth it.

Now to hold myself back from splurging on a Vortech kit :s.

hey mate

any chance of organising another group buy?

The $ is now about 10% higher than it was when we bought so you may be able to get a single for a good price off Riverside's ebay auctions...

Yeah theres a site with them on special looking around $300 landed. Can get an aftermarket up plenum for about $350-400. Once my cars on its way I'll be ording one along with the headers I found and exhaust. It'll be stock from the time it leaves the dealer to my house.
