parello9 Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 I've got a induction kit and k1 exhaust on my zee fancy getting a plenum spacer then myabe the uprev What have most people gone for or recommend ? Quote
KyleR Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Look in the member traders section, wasso does them, they're probably the best made ones, cheaper than motordyne and you can chose which colour Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Just the basic 5/16th Motordyne plenum spacer is all you need. I currently have one left in stock Quote
craig350z Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 (edited) How much is it tarmac ? Sorry used my brain and clicked on your link Edited July 12, 2013 by craig350z Quote
craig350z Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Could someone let me know whats wrong with a cheaper one like this BLOX one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLOX-INTAKE-MANIFOLD-5-16-SPACER-PLENUM-VQ35DE-NISSAN-350Z-INFINITI-G35-NEW-/130890950154?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e79b5660a Has anyone ever used this one before or has it just been avoided ?

Paddy78 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) There is a risk, as with anything, that a cheaper product has not been made to the same standards. There may be nothing wrong with the eBay one, but most people will likely advise you to stick with either a Motordyne or one of Wasso's as the quality of these are tried and tested. I have a Wasso one and there were no fitment problems, the quality is excellent and you can get it anodised in your choice of colour, so they look cool too! Edited July 12, 2013 by Paddy78 Quote

I wouldn't buy one but some US guys use them without issues, they are thicker than Motordyne so might be an issue with the brace/bonnet shutting. Forum price for the Motordyne is £175 Quote
Ekona Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 When the Motordyne one is only £175, why would you bother with anything else? That's peanuts. Quote
Wasso Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 When the Motordyne one is only £175, why would you bother with anything else? That's peanuts. Because for less you can have them colour coded The Motordyne spacer and gaskets are made for cost effective manufacturing, so the spacer is made of two parts glued together. They also use a silicon bond for the gasket which breaks down, as I found. Mine are made of single pieces so not glued together, and don't use silicon as a glue for the gasket. Quote
Ekona Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Better for less you say? I'm sold! Sorry mate, forgot about yours Quote

Stutopia Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Wish I'd seen the Wasso spacer before I ordered my motordyne, not that I'm unhappy with it, but these do look better. Quote
Wasso Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 The other issue with the Motordyne I didn't like, was the fact they anodise the spacer white, but over the laser cut edges. After 1 year on my car it looked grubby, and anyone wishing to bling their bay it looked tatty. Which is where all this came about. I wanted one for myself so setup the creation of Wasso Spacers. They will be going on sale in America soon. Quote
craig350z Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Took all your advise and avoided the cheap one and got a wassa one :-) Quote
The Chubby Ninja Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Wassa lol. What colour did you end up going for? The gold one makes your car faster than an HR! Tried and tested if you need anyone to confirm this pm AMT Quote
Wasso Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 Took all your advise and avoided the cheap one and got a wassa one :-) Cool and good choice. Payment received and your order is now at my house.
