One thing though is that the Nismo model seems to clear the EVAP container a bit more versus the non-Nismo models.

Curious. Did you still end up moving it?

I know some of the other members were saying break up the red with something but the car flows so well I cant imagine what would make it look better. Great job with the build man.

Thank you for the kind words

Hard to describe....but best way to look at it would be to pull the picture from 370Ztune.com.

The pipe goes into the lower canister versus crossing over to the top one...so this allowed more clearance on the EVAP container. I just used Thermo-Tec adhesive heat shield material to help reflect the heat though. Rated to 2000 degrees F.

I did have to remove the heat shield around the EVAP unit though.

From what I was reading...you might need to jury rig a PVC pipe to make a make shift EVAP container unit. The 350Z guys were having this exact issue as well.

It is a bit ghetto....but nobody really sees it and it is better than a melted EVAP unit. I dont know if you have "wiggle" room with the Amuse kit to move that EVAP unit more to the side....or a complete relocation. I would assume that as long as your connections are the same and the sensors are intact, it doesnt really matter where you move it....to a degree.
