Finally a good intake, I think?

I bought this from a guy on one of the Z sites classified section. It looks like it may have had a 60mm throttle body by looking at the grinding on the opening. I don't want a bigger throttle body (lots of people say it's wasted money on a stock motor) so could I still use it with my OE TB? This intake has the egr mounting section but does not have any 10mm plugs or the small holes in the runners. I taped everthing off and sucked on the brake booster hole and it's airtight so I really don't need the plate covering the egr mount, I think I'll put one on just for looks better reason. Any ideas of what it is? Early N47? I like it and would like to know what it came off of. The fellow that sold it had never used it, just acquired for extra parts. It was $25.

That's kind of odd, that you have the EGR casting but it's incomplete, with no fittings. Doesn't seem link Nissan would put that on a car for sale, do you know where he got it?

It looks like the N47 pictured on this For Sale thread - http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/102684-turbo-engine-harness-50-n47-intake-60/page__pid__960869

I have an N47 intake though also, with the webbing in between the runners. There must have been two styles, early and late, as you suggest.

Your stock throttle body should work, it will just be dumping in to a bigger hole.

I sure am glad to hear positive thinking. I think it should work also because of all the people that weren't happy with the 60mm's and switched back to OE throttle body. It came from Aurora, Illinois which doesn't tell you much but I have sent an e-mail asking about it, haven't heard back though. It's like it could be off a '75 or '76 California car. More questions than answers. Maybe someone will chime in and tell us.
