air regulator/part number?

I have been looking around online for a air regulator for my 87 Maxima....I have looked at advanced auto and auto zone and some other random on line parts places...but I cant find one that has a part called a air regulator....so my question is...is that the "right" name for the air regulator or is there a more proper name for it that would help me to find it at parts store...also does anyone know the part number.

It may also be known as a AAV or Auxilary Air Valve.

When I was rpicing around, I found out that my local dealer was actually cheaper than any of the aftermarket houses for the AAV.

I couldn't find an replacement air regulator at a parts house and had to get mine from the local Nissan dealer. It cost me about 95 bucks. Go ahead and buy a new elbow shaped air hose that connects it to the manifold, because if yours is original equipment, it will most likely break when you go to remove it.
