OK guess I should try and clean out the garage, as it's starting to get hard to park the car in there...

Pure Innovations Plenum spacer - $100

This is a flat spacer (not angled) for maximum airflow but won't clear the factory strut brace without spacers. I believe I have all the spacers, will confirm tonight. Supplied with plenum gasket, but advisable to get a new one from Nissan for 100% air-tight fit. Good improvement in mid-range with this mod.

Trust Airinx-GT high flow panel filter - $50

Used for only 1 track day and a few hundred k's before boosting the car. I chose the Trust because (apparently) the filter material is the best flowing. Breathes much better than stock.

Apex'i Pod filter and heat shield - $60

If you're after a pod filter, this flows quite well and the heat-shield helps with the heak-soak.

Will post up some pics tonight or tomorrow, PM me if you're interested.

very keen on the spacer...does it come with the spacers/washers for each bolt and extended bolts for the plenum?? If it's the complete kit and all that's required is a new gasket...then please pm me shipping cost to perth and banking details for funds xfer.

cheers

ps: can I still use the factory engine cover without fouling on the bonnet??

What size is the plenum spacer (how thick)?

10mm thick all round.

Interested in the Pod Filter, will you ship to Perth ?

Yep shipping to Perth is all good, around $10.

ps: can I still use the factory engine cover without fouling on the bonnet??

I'm not sure about the V35/G35 but I could still use the 350Z engine cover.

Plenum Spacer and Panel Filter on hold.

Fcruz3r; pics below...hmm I appear to be missing 3 of the small bolts when compared to the stock picture. But I've counted on my plenum and it only takes 9 bolts.

You can compare the inventory with the stock photo from Pure Innovations;

    • Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.
    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
