Nissan Fairlady/300ZX Z32 Balance Tube O-Ring
This rubber O-ring sits at each end of the balance tube where it mates to the upper intake plenum, creating an airtight and coolant-safe seal. It is critical for preventing vacuum leaks and maintaining proper airflow balance between both cylinder banks. It also helps seal coolant passages integrated into the intake system. Typically two are required per engine, and it supersedes earlier part numbers, making it the correct updated OEM replacement for both USDM and JDM Z32 applications.
- 2 Required
- USDM 300ZX (Z32): 1990–1996 (naturally aspirated and twin-turbo models)
- JDM Fairlady Z (Z32): 1989–1996 (naturally aspirated and twin-turbo models)
- Fits VG30DE & VG30DETT engines (NA or TT)
