Many aftermarket intake manifolds and engine bay builds on the S14 and S15 create clearance conflicts or positioning issues with the OEM IACV mounting location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Radium 20-0162 spacer kit resolves these interference issues by repositioning the IACV to clear aftermarket intake manifold flanges and adjacent engine bay components. The kit is precision machined from high-quality billet aluminum for a leak-free, OEM-quality seal at the IACV mounting face. Correct IACV operation is essential for stable cold-start idle and proper idle control across engine temperature ranges on the SR20DET. The 20-0162 is a focused engineering solution for a common fitment problem on modified S-chassis builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrects IACV clearance and positioning issues on aftermarket intake manifold builds for Nissan S14 and S15 SR20DET\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBillet aluminum construction for precision fitment and long-term durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains proper IACV operation for correct idle control across cold and warm engine temperatures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-fit installation using existing IACV hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact spacer design minimizes engine bay packaging impact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20-0162\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNissan S14 and S15 with SR20DET\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFunction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIACV spacer for clearance correction on aftermarket intake manifolds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBillet aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Radium Engineering 20-0162 IACV spacer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequired gaskets or O-rings (per Radium product documentation)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFastener hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout Radium Engineering\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadium Engineering is a US-based manufacturer specializing in precision-machined fuel system components, catch cans, intake manifolds, and engine accessories for sport compact and high-performance vehicles.

It resolves fitment and clearance conflicts between the OEM IACV mounting position and aftermarket intake manifolds or adjacent engine bay components by providing a precision billet aluminum spacer that repositions the IACV to clear interference points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does an IACV spacer do on the SR20DET?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn IACV spacer repositions the idle air control valve to clear aftermarket intake manifold flanges or other components that interfere with the OEM mounting position. The IACV controls the idle speed by regulating airflow bypass around the throttle plate. Incorrect installation or clearance conflicts with the IACV can cause cold-start idle problems, unstable idle, or high idle at operating temperature. The Radium 20-0162 spacer corrects the mounting geometry without compromising IACV function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Radium 20-0162 specific to a particular intake manifold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Radium 20-0162 is designed as a general clearance correction solution for S14 and S15 SR20DET builds with aftermarket intake manifolds that conflict with the OEM IACV position. Confirm the specific fitment compatibility between the 20-0162 and your intake manifold by reviewing the Radium Engineering product documentation or contacting Radium Engineering directly before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Radium 20-0162 work on the S14 Kouki and S15 Silvia?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20-0162 is listed for the Nissan S14 and S15 with SR20DET, which covers both the S14 (including Kouki) and S15 Silvia variants equipped with the SR20DET engine.

It is designed to maintain the correct IACV function by providing a dimensionally accurate spacer with proper sealing surfaces. An air leak at the spacer interfaces, caused by improper installation or damaged gaskets, would affect idle quality and must be corrected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Radium 20-0162 a universal part?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20-0162 is designed for the Nissan S14 and S15 SR20DET IACV mounting configuration. While the SR20DET appears in multiple Nissan applications, the S-chassis IACV mounting dimensions are specific to that platform. Compatibility with other SR20DET applications such as the Pulsar or Primera should be confirmed directly with Radium Engineering before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this require a tune after installation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstalling an IACV spacer does not typically require a full engine retune when the IACV remains properly operational. If the spacer is installed as part of a larger intake manifold upgrade that changes airflow volumes or plenum geometry, a retune may be required to recalibrate idle and fuel trims for the new intake configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Radium 20-0162 come with a warranty?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRadium Engineering products are backed by the manufacturer against defects in materials and workmanship.
