12mm or 25mm spacer for vz

[Silver6]

With the 25mm ones I have had to leave off the engine covers off , which is a very minor irritant , you may find the gaskets a bugger to remove as well , at least mine were .

Mine were a PITA. They broke off everywhere and I spend ages tediously scraping it off the block and manifold with a razor blade. Got to do it all again hopefully this weekend

True that , scraping the bastards off took me forever as well

Yeah took a good hour or so and 3 blades to get the job done. Hopefully the RTV will be easier to get off. I think the hardest bit will be getting the manifold itself off :/

from what I am led to believe , it shouldn't be a problem to take off the manifold again , just a gentle tug should do it .

Haha. Not going to type what I was thinking, lol.
From what I hear not too difficult but sometimes you need to get rough with it, lol.

Maybe I should have rephrased that .

Thanks for your constructive feedback Group C. For the record, have your primary O2 sensors been replaced? The reason for this is that they can be problematic (no longer accurate), while not registering a fault code.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask

Kindest Regards,

Hey Steve,

Besides that how would we know, which O2 sensor if faulty? :\ and around how much do they cost...any idea?

Am planning to buy a MACE-CAI along with this 12mm spacer


cheers mate

You can check the condition of an O2 sensor by data logging it on a dyno or on the street. A new O2 sensor will be around the $100 mark.

No problems.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Kind Regards,
