Hello Newbee onboard:)

Hello everyone,

I'm a new 2005 G35 Coupe owner. My previous ride was a TRD supercharged SLE Solara. The car was dyno'd at 252 at the wheels. It was sad to see her go, but I must move on... As of right now, I very happy with my new wheels. I hope to gain some knowledge on the 350GT and meet some new friends here.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. It's a pleasure to be here. As of right now, the only MODz on the G is a Z-tube and the Blitz LM drop in filter. I'm looking into a Motordyne 5/16" spacer as the next upgrade. Any personal thoughts on this product?

Tony's (Motordyne) products are great! If you have an AT, the plenum spacer may not yield any gains. This is due to the '05's Revup motor. However, if you have a 6MT . . . Tony's new MREV mod will do wonders for everyday drivability. This mod adds gobs of mid range torque and hp. I installed it about a month ago and I am more than pleased with the results.

I second Andy2434's comment; if you have a 6MT, adding the MREV makes the car so much more fun to drive without changing any of the cars appearance. Welcome and congratulations on the purchase.

Question

Well... I have the AUTO... So the spacer is not beneficial. And if I were to purchase the 5/16" spacer, the gains are minimal? All comments are welcome

Thanks in advance guys.

The MREV is not beneficial - the spacer on the other hand is another story. I recommend you look into that a bit more and that you get one but I'll let you decide that one.

Hey that's cool! I had a 1999 solara se v6 manuel with the TRD S/C before my 2005 g35 sedan 6mt as my handle says. I miss the torque the the S/C in the solara, but I do not miss the front wheel drive chassis.

I can't comment on the spacer on the '05 AT (I'm unaware of why it wouldn't be beneficial)....I know it is on my '04. If you do decide to get one, why not go with the 3/8" spacer? , as you can still fit the engine cover on with this size spacer.
