Guy's.....just a heads up for those that wanted a Phenolic runner spacer for the M35.

I have made up enough runners for 9 kits.

Kit includes:

* Phenolic runner spacer

* Mounting bracket for the fuel rail and gearbox dipstick

* All extended plenum bolts and nut

*****you will need to order a runner gasket....I can arrange this as well at your cost*****

PM me for further details.

P.S. I can do the install if wanted in NSW or organise in VIC....again PM me for details.

Can u run the standard engine cover still?

Yes - but it is tight and I believe you will have to extend the studs that hold it on at the front of the engine if you want to screw it down (the rear supports screw in to the plenum, so no issue there.

The mate I quoted earlier has his engine cover on. He has an ARX, not that it should make a difference.

Picked up my spacer last night. Very neat bit of kit. Big thanks to Andy and Craig for organising it at such short notice. I really appreciate it guys.

Oh and Craig.... You could of let your missus go shopping mate! That phone call exchange between you and Andy had me in stitches!!!

Thanks again.

Andrew.

Does this kit can be fitted to the V35?

The kit we made is specific to the VQ25DET motor as the VQ35DE is slightly different.

Send IAMHE77 a PM as he was working on a phenolic spacer for the VQ35DE.

Cheers

Andy

arent the runners in the same spot for all VQ engines? its the plenum on top thats different i think

I know they are very similar but Cam tells me they are slightly different. :D

not so much that they are in a different spot, more that the inlet size is slightly different I think. (I think)

Does this kit can be fitted to the V35?

No. But I can do one that can. :)

We made up a kit for my mate's V35 (GT-8), but you won't be able to close the bonnet if you have a 5/8" plenum spacer. 5/16" you may get away with but I can't be 100% sure.

ahh right!

larger or smaller Cam? if they are larger, potential upgrade for VQ25DET owners?? :domokun:

VQ35de runner spacer is very different to the VQ25det.

Larger overall with significantly larger inlets.

VQ35de spacer is NOT an upgrade for VQ25det.

i meant the whole intake manifold/plenum. there is some volume there that might affect performance in a positive way.

i also might put my spacer on this weekend if i have a whole day

huh....a whole day! 2 hours tops :)

Let me know when you are going to do it and I can save you some time.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
