Spacer

Will this spacer do me any good?

What am I looking for when I buy one and where can I get one that can fit our cars?

The throttle body spacer? If so, yes it will give you a little better fuel/air flow. There are kits available. In fact, SEARCH AZ for throttle body spacer or "TB spacer" in the search field.

Good luck. I'm not sure what brands there are, but it seems I remember OBX having this kit for the 3.0 and 2.X CLs.

I hate the advertising/whoring of our posts. No I didn't make the link. I can only assume is goes to something related to this board's funding. But hey, that is ok, so long as I can make a link that works now and then.

Are you trying to imply that I am a and didn't search before I posted?

I made them, don't really wanna do it again. I have a set of .5" spacers if you want them, pm me, we'll have to check the size first.

takin off those 'stupid' bars is a pain in the ass (not to mention hazardous), but not as bad as trying to put them back in :S

Oh shit, I was so off base. Never heard of speaker spacers. But, yeah that makes sense, and no, you don't want to take the trunk spring mechanism off. You will hate yourself later if you do it.
