^^wat do you need a jack for to install a plenum spacer? and you dont even need a torque wrench....if you have a screwdriver handle that accepts 10mm sockets if you tighten that as much as you can thats around 90 to 100 inch lbs

makes it sound as if you were talking about wheel spacers, there is only 1 spacer for the plenum

Is buying a used JWT Pop-Charger a good idea?

just buy a used z-tube(350z intake tube) and a K&N drop in filter!
saves you money with pretty much the same gains. used the extra money to buy a used MD spacer

QFT. Any intake other than this combo is simply going to be for sound. All the gains are minimal. It's fine to buy a used pop charger but I also recommend Z-tube over anything.

Like Monard said, I also higher recommend the Motordyne spacer as I felt a pick up after installing this with my Stillen/ z-tube combo.

you also have to understand the GTR is my favorite car around so...
I'd opt not to get the GTR bumper not unless your going to have extremely aggressive styling to your car such as Redskylinegt. He's the only guy I know that can pull this bumper off. Otherwise, it just looks out of place and ricey.

Do what makes you happy though!
