Ozzie831 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Looking for a 240sx TB spacer. I've already called Arizona z and they wont have any for over a month. so if you have one or know where to buy one please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaito Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Just letting you know so maybe you can save a buck, but all you really have to do is open up the hole on your intake a bit to clear the throttle butterfly valve. It bolts up after that. You can even do it with a dremel. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cockerstar Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Kaito, the spacer is to used to make the stock linkage line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldAndyAndTheSea Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I just went to eBay for mine when I didn't hear back from AZC. Spent like 50 bucks for the spacer and the longer bolts, shipped. Works perfect. Just search 240sx throttle body spacer. My next ordeal is trying to fill the small gap still open at the top of the intake manifold opening (the L-series manifold opening is a tear drop shape, so the top left corner is just barely peeking through) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My next ordeal is trying to fill the small gap still open at the top of the intake manifold opening (the L-series manifold opening is a tear drop shape, so the top left corner is just barely peeking through) Im having the same ordeal. Everyone says to just slap on a 240sx throttle body when its not that easy. The tear drop shape is giving me problems too... Dont know if i should find someone to weld aluminum so it can be filled or what? Edited November 9, 2012 by Randall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler031734 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I found the same issue with the tiny gap. Mine was about a milimeter. I mixed up a bit of JB weld and filled the gap with a dab on my finger, matched the color of the gasket too. I did this with the TB installed on the intake, but you could fill the bump of the intake with JB weld while apart, let harden and sand level to the gasket surface. I think my next casting project will be a few TB's. Bolts are easy to supply as well. I can definatly beat $50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
