NISMO front are Akebono calipers (diff than Perf) with 380x34 rotors.
NISMO rears are the same calipers & rotors as Perf.
Based on searching too much for brake rotors and pads, neither that I need at this point, the NISMO Akebono fronts are their own animal. Haven't seen anything that those...
Correct. Even as short as it is, because it's a drive cable and not a solid shaft, it will bend. So the hole doesn't have to be perfect. If it's a little left, right, front or back, it will still work as advertised as long as it has the length to get through the panel.
BTW, going with a longer...
Example, as none of this is accurate or to scale, but this is what I have pictured for my install.
View from the back of the car looki9ng forward. The gray line through the extender shaft is the strut tower cover panel.
Mine are almost dead on 2". The original knob is 0.44" and sits inside the base of the extender, so essentially overall 2" length makes for a 1.55" extension.
Based on @VR30Infection pics it looks like the bottom of his knob is 1/4"-3/8" below the surface of the panel (no complaints, as his...
I'm 100% 'educated speculation' at this point, as I haven't installed anything.
But yes, those panels will need holes regardless.
I'd like the knobs on mine to sit right on the panels...we'll see how that works out.
If you order extenders from Sakebomb I assume they'll make them to whatever...
Pretty sure the longer or full length extensions won't fit under the strut tower cover. You should only need to extend about 1.5" to make it straight up through the cover. My ASSUMPTION is if you were to try to relocate the knob on the side or back of that panel (what I had planned) the top of...
Got my damping extenders from Sakebomb. Perfection.
Thanks to @VR30Infection for pics/measurements!
The extension is a flexible cable (bendable, but not twistable...I think they're called "drive cables") with crimped ferrules on the ends that the set screws clamp to. There's slight adjustability...
I think I remember something about tip dimensions (center to center) not being the same...maybe.
Check dis...

Just want you to know, or whoever created that image, that there’s an Amish kid out there, and when he sees this, it will be the final straw for him to break away from his family.
When you say "intercooler" in the original post, do you mean heat exchanger?
The NISMO CAI, HX and exhaust are dealer-installed options now, configurable/buildable on nissanusa.com (along with coilovers, sway bars and front strut tower brace). Although for some reason the Sport is the only one...
I've looked into this a little more, and could have asked the dealership Friday, but didn't think about it.
$300 is a good deal if this was a flush/replacement, but was probably a drain and fill...although there's nothing wrong with that.
Total capacity is 10-11 quarts and drain and fill is 5-6...
