  • ZZP TB Spacer: 99+ Only

    Got my TB Spacer today and went to install it, but it doesn't fit. After checking some pictures and part numbers, it appears that the spacer is for 99+ ONLY. It comes with a new gasket, but the part number is for 99+. I've talked with ZZPerformance, but am waiting to hear back from them. It looks like they designed it on a 99+, but didn't realize that we got a new TB in 99.

    How much did you pay for it?

    How much would you want to part with it if ZZPerformance won't take it back? :D

          Care to point out where it says it's only for 99+?

          And what about how when I talked to them on the phone, they said it should work?

              lolol.. really??

              I dunno.. I just assumed it said it somewhere..

              ohh well.. i got mine soooooo long ago.. zoomer and i were talking about it and he jsut mentioned it.. i am prety sure that when i talked to him he said it was only for 2000+ cars..

              i dunno.. whatever.. send that joint back then.. there is no good way to adapt it

                Actually, a different gasket is used from 95-98.

                Here's a picture of the problem:

                  That gasket is definitely different than mine.
