Eoi. R33/34 Rb25 Greddy Knockoff Inlet Manifold Possibly $180ea


Recommended Posts

Ask him to take some more hi-res pics of a plenum in stock. Those pics on ebay are crap and do not show much detail. Pics hide alot of faults, but at least we have a better idea :D

I think the first one went on ebay the othe day, emailed and he said he would send some better pics. PS i think these two plenums are exactly the same, ill email autotechnica again and see if they think they will be able to beat this price, thats if they get back to me.

i thought so too when i saw it, but if they are both sposed to be same quality as the greddy unit, then they ought to look pretty similar. Now we have some market competition on an already well-priced product. Good stuff

Actually I was the first one to buy this manifold. And jumped on here to let you all know.

I recieved if today.But I bought mine for 450 BUY IT NOW + 50 postage.(hence 500 delivered)

The quality is pretty good.Not in the same quality of finished product as Greddy but pretty good.

A few casting dags in between the runners and the gasket surface is not machined.My best mate

is an ex-foundry mould maker and he's had a look this arvo and is pretty impressed.Just needs a little chean up and a polish. I'm happy.Another $100 for a polish and it's still less than 1/2 the price of the Greddy.Looks like the same dimensions as my Greddy.Internally and externally.Will keep you posted on performance.Will run it std,ported and extrude honded. :)

"SMACK MY BITCH UP" :P

Received an enail from autotechnica today, saying that they could match the price of $319 + postage, although they tell me that they need an adapter to fit the standard throttle body, which they sell(but didn't give me a price)They should be ready late october, what do you guys think, who do we want to supply them(im not fussed)I could get them milled for about $40 ea...Could also get them polished for about $100(cant be sure on price until seen)

Redman8: Did you buy thid for your GTR? If so, WHY?

:) No I didnt buy it for my gtr.She's finished and is at the side of my tommy in the shed.

They both get a little run every now and then.I'm saving them for a rainy day.

I am doing up a 94 gts4 with a 25/30 hybrid at the moment.About 3mths off just yet.Suspension and body is all reconditionded or new.With the addition of GTR rear guards,carbon fibre bonnet,FORD SCREAMING YELLOW panit,TRUST front bar,Black Drift wing,19"Lenso Muse wheels.

AS for most of the important stuff,

Reconditionded Head,De-burred/Acid dipped and cleaned std block,(modified to take turbo and 4wd sump),Forged Hypertec pistons,Cryod std rods,Kings bearings,Top mount manifold,50mm wastegate,To4z,Blitz BOV,800cc inj,NOW FORWARD FACING INLET MANIFOLD,Q45 90mm throttlebody,Q45 AFM,Splitfires,Apexi 270deg 8.7mm lift sticks,Apexi Power FC,Os Gieken twin plate,120mm intercooler,remote oil filter and cooler,twin thermofans>>>>>>>>>and more to come. :rofl:

Redman8 sounds tops :)

You copied my rims :rofl:, get them powder coated in "Precious Steel Pearl", they would look awesome with the yellow paint.

:D

yeah im in for a manifold at that price or thereabouts, if by milling you mean the gasket surface then i'd get that done too, polish is a bit of a waste as i tend to close my bonnet lol. I don't mind waiting til next month, but if the ebay ones are as good as redman says, id be more inclined to get one of them. They are in stock i assume, autotechnica have dicked us around too much in my opinion.

Interesting that the ebay one says R32, R33, R34 but R34 RB25 has different stud pattern so is there a seperate one or does he not realise this maybe?

I'm for whoever can get them to us faster?

If the quality is the same and the prices are the same, just get them from whoever is ready to supply..

Personally, I think Autotechnica shouldn't even be considered anymore considering how long the've had and still haven't produced a thing besides a lot of stories?

Edited by NV N01
Spoke to the ebay supplier today, he said to give him two days, and he will have all the answers about fitment etc...Then we are ready to start

So we can hopefully start this Group Buy on Monday..

Sound good to me..

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
