You can make one for about $0 - $10, if you're a bit handy. I saw a how-to on the forum a while ago. Did it differently to me (probably better lol) but was more involved.

Nissan will charge you about $90 for it, but if you pop off the plastic cover then stick some rubber or stiff foam around the edge to stop hot air getting in, you'll end up with the same result.

Of course it won't say "Poooowweeerrrr duct" for everyone to see when you open the bonnet......

It will if you get a white texter and put it on there :D

sorry i'll elaborate on that....

im not interested in the fictional power gain with this mod, am just in need of the OEM part that goes here

Umm, I'm confused. If it's a fictional power gain, why are you so interested? I'm not saying you will get much (if any) gain (as opposed to us M35 owners), but wouldn't you like to try a zero cost mod to see before being touched up by Nissan or anyone else?

If it's only about the looks, put the money towards something that can be seen on the outside IMO.

    • Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?
    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
