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.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
