Hello everyone this is my first post. I am coming out of a Subaru Impreza WRX with a fair amount of mods. I saw throttle body spacers on ebay and was wondering if anyone has tried them. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-...sspagenameZWDVW

Thanks for your help

I had one of these on my 03 maxima 35vq, didn't really make a big deal on that. With the CVT in the mo, I would think its a waste of money

Try this instead. I have it on my Maxima:

I only see a block plate for the MO. Is there a kit that I am not seeing? What kind of improvement did you feel?

Forget it, I'm a dumbass.

I haven't put this on my Murano yet, only my Maxima. I'm waiting for my Murano warranty to be up before I consider it. This is a quality product. There are a lot of Altimas and Maximas running around with this on. I believe one forum member installed this with a Kinetix intake manifold (you do 90% of the labor of the Kinetix while doing the spacers). This install is not for the novice, make sure you read the install literature first.

The idea for throttle body spacers goes back to carb engines. On a carb engine (called a carburator plate or spacer) it would usually be made of a less heat conductive material.
