Many online US retailers don’t ship overseas. If they do ship abroad, international shipping can take forever and the fees are expensive. If you live outside of the US and want to shop at US retailers hassle-free, I recommend using the service Shipito. With Shipito, you can shop at any US website like eBay, Sephora, Amazon and Walmart. Shipito offers fast and affordable package
services and shipping options. They even offer a package consolidation, which means if you buy from multiple US retailers, they will put all of your packages into one shipping box. This method can save you up to 80% on shipping fees. The steps to getting started are simple:
- Sign up for Shipito
- Choose either a free or a paid membership option. The paid option gives you access to a US TAX-FREE address in Oregon which will save you tons of money on shopping.
- Once you have your Shipito address, go to any US retailer and start shopping
- When you check out, enter your Shipito suite address
- Once products arrive, fill out a customs form, select special services, and choose a shipping carrier.
- Ship products from Shipito to you!

You deserve a hell of a lot more subscribers. I can see the effort you’ve put into these videos! Keep up the great content!
Welp he got one more
Always enjoy these. Be interesting to see what other mods you do (turbo!!!!!!!!! or not)
Good to see the garage in full flow
I appreciate how through your videos are. Sure it has an advert but it still might be helpful for some people. I look forward to more videos in the new garage
Interested to see where you take the 350Z next 😊 good work 👍🏼
Big thanks Sam
Reckon you should get the plenum 'crackle finished' may be gold colour.
Good stuff!
Exciting stuff
Just an observation. I was surprised you didn't clean and polish the "outside" of the aluminum plenum when you had it removed. Good videos, Thanks.
You will only get a power increase if you add more fuel to the additional air going into the cylinders. Also, I thought the main benefit of the plenum spacer was about reducing the heat soak from the middle of the engine heating up the plenum and the induction air...
You ahould do an ecu reset to help the car relearn witg the new airflow. Should help get some more power without a tune
You have a brand new washer machine. Why not use it on the plenum ? Or did you still have electrics connected to it ?
10 HP for a few quid sounds pretty good to me.
Dear Sir/Madam, did you install a 5/16 plenum or a 5/8 plenum and did it interfere with closing the engine cover. Greetings Vladimir
Good vid, glad to see you back. Get Garys car in for some bits
Cheers mate. Gary is too scared to drive his car when it's cold or wet so he's SORN it for winter.
@@RoadandRacetv 😂😂 true story!
Oh dear. Tbf my RS gets very little use over winter, however I have a Megane and Scooby to play with in the winter months.
@@tracktimevideos5164 that’s my plan, get this RS paid off, then get a daily driver / track toy combined. Something like a Megane RS 300 Trophy. Then keep the Focus RS and use it as I do now 👍🏼
I think it would have been an interesting project for your channel if you had decided to make your own spacer
I’ve heard ppl say the spacer on the rev up is a loss in power? Anyone else hear this? I’ve heard unless you are adding the mrev2 with it it’s useless… I have a spacer… do I just not put it on?? Getting dyno tuned for bolt ons soon.. so I Wana make the best of it
Please more videos like this!! I have little interest in a 350z, but it's a pleasure watching you work and the there's always something new to pick up from your vids.
You were talking about the channel future in your previous vid. Consider improvements or tweaks to your cameras and video editing. Otherwise please keep this up! No car reviews!!
I ended up buying the iso mid, can I skip the valve installation?
Get a Mishimoto intake tube.
Hello. Where is DyNo tests ?)
What, no dyno run? :-(
i should have put one on my maxima, owell.
I would have given it some paint while it was off the car. Your channel is great for how you try to cover everything.
Ideally I would have polished the plenum but i didn't have time. Maybe in the future.
noticed a huge difference when i installed a plenum spacer + dc sport intake
I have the DC Sports intake myself and i just ordered the Z1 Motorsports spacer!
nice, i have test pipes on my car now. thing flies @@sens_g35
Thank you for this to us. A little more detail, maybe you can include the link in your description of the exact Motordyme spacer part you went for?
Namely, you chosen
350Z 5/16″ or 1/2″? Basic, Iso Thermal or Copper?
And why you took that choice? once you decided for Motordyme spacer.
Happier New Year to you and your family!
I just went for the basic one.
@@RoadandRacetv Thank you so much I understood from reviewing the video @3:46, that you mention you got the 5/16¨ one. I will consider strongly your recommendation here.
Please share more on your 350z mods as they come, always with your sincere feedback that is truly appreciated!
Omfg, $300 USD for a fricking plenum spacer!!!! I paid the 162.00$ after shipping, see if you guys can get stuff from Z1, they’re from my state and have been in the works with NISSAN themselves to create some great bang for your buck parts!
Not going to help with international shipping fees of course though, just another reputable place for aftermarket AND OEM parts for Nissans of various models. Our skyline prices may be a bit pricey 🤗😂
Lot easier than your M3!
I giot MACE one off ebay for 150 fantastic fit.
I literally have a Z outside and a plenum spacer Kit that’s been sitting in the closet for 2 months nearly lolz
Sell it to me
A must upgrade for any 350z DE 💪🏾
287bhp is in the US and JPN, our UK car had 276bhp
Seems like the brand for the plenum spacer really thought about it all, even spacers for the brace...
Facing what the package includes I think the price isn't too bad for it.
I would have been surprised if it would have created a huge power number but nevertheless I think it's a nice "little" MOD.
Car modding isn't always about making sense, it's also about having fun in trying out stuff.
I liked the video a lot and the commercial didn't hurt me at all. Don't understand the harsh comments...
Looking forward to more stuff
Greetings from Bavaria
Seems a lot of money and effort for a small perceivable gain!
...so the ecu will notice the increase in air and adjust for more fuel??? Hence the "power gain"??? I dont think it is that effective, but well, to each its own.
Yes and its fairly dyno proven over nearly two decades at this point.
It’s only good if it’s a non revup
Usually more air in means more petrol?
Probably
Back in the days when I had a G35 I noticed NO DIFFERENCE from a plenum spacer. These cars don't respond very well to "mods".
its all about modding your car then getting it tuned the plenum won't give any power unless you send more fuel with the air
We didn't get to see the lift in action.
Wait a min, if most UK retailers sell it at that price anyway...Why not just buy it there? I am confusion.
Good lord... that corrosion! I’m so glad I’m not in the UK anymore
Its not corrosion, it happens to any cars left in cold conditions unused for a while in any country.
Should have spray painted the oxidised plenum for an extra 10 HP. My 2005 JDM Skyline 350GT has a similar engine (VQ). I enjoy your videos. Cheers.
276 bhp in DE form
In a g35 yes. In the Z it had more
*MOPOWABEBE*
do some research on plenums for de more like
MOPOWAMAYBE
Isn’t this a Renault engine? Not a Nissan design.
No
Zed. Lol
I've accepted that these guys pronounce Z as Zed but calling the front hood a bonnet is crossing the line.
We were saying zed before your country existed, sit down
i gained better economy and torque at 2k
What a waste of money. Sorry.
Seems like a waste of time and effort. If you want to get a faster car why didn’t you just keep the M3 and not spend money on mods..
Well you're a ray of sunshine 😂☀️
Perhaps but is he wrong? 250 quid for a perceived increase - which is likely placebo as you can't generally feel anything under 10% hp gain? Seems like an odd decision to make.
Probably because he enjoys the car and there is a fan base out there for 350z which he is hoping to capitalise on to run his TH-cam channel. Nothing wrong with that.
I think he explained that it's one step, in a line of upgrades 😂 so alone, perhaps but that's not the goal here 👍🏼 I got that, dw 😂
If he plans further breathing modifications it will probably be worth it, headers, 200cel cats, big bore throttle body...
