Obx 3/4" Spacer
 
Tried the "search button" on the forum to know more about the 3/4" OBX spacer with no luck... :icon8:

Do you have any idea if this one will clear the standard Nissan 350Z tower bar?

As seen on ebay...

Blox Racing

Intake Manifold Spacer

VQ35- 03-05 Nissan 350z/ Infiniti G35

3/4" thickness
Helps increase manifold's capacity and lowers intake air temp.
Power and throttle response also increases
Made out of Thermal Polymer
Easily installs between the factory intake manifold
Part# BXIM-40200


Why is this so cheap compared to other spacers (e.g. MD) ??

It can be purchased for $89.95 on ebay and many other sites.

Anyone using it on here?

Thanks, Zsan

WTF? I've never heard of it but if the 1/2" spacer won't clear without spacers, I'd imagine a 3/4" wouldn't fit even with spacers on there without the strut bar touching the hood.

no won't clear

Jarred@Z1 01-24-2008 08:53 AM

I would never put anything from OBX on my car.

i agree, that shat is garbage.

Sooner or later you will learn, you get what you pay for usually. If saving a $100 is worth doing it twice, then hell yeah, good pick mang.

It's a spacer, not a turbocharger... It's an inanimate piece of plastic that you put between two pieces of metal. As long as the surface is flat then I don't see why it wouldn't work just fine.

I'd try it out but I didn't have better things to spend money on.

I would think it would be fine till the heat dries it out - couple years worth of use maybe, less if FI...

So it comes pre-moistened? :icon14:

gothchick 02-04-2008 07:12 AM

Does it also come 'ribbed' for her pleasure? Lol~ :icon11:

Jeff92se 02-05-2008 11:02 AM

Read the dyno graphs at Motordyne. Not only is 3/4" too thick to fit under the oem bar, it creates too much volume in the intake. It's not an optimum thickness.

ZTUPID 02-06-2008 02:48 AM

I'm pretty sure it's not 3/4"... the BLOX spacer is 1/2". Unless they make two, but I doubt it. would 3/4" even clear the hood?
