Just curious if anyone has personally used or test fitted one of these manifolds.

They seem to be a well-known shop from what I can tell in Thailand, and I'm just curious about the quality.

So not really billinos of rwkw's?

so... compare that...

with mine (which i reckon looks heaps better painted rather than polished/chrome)

Thats what you want for show, polished look junkie

damn orange is a nice color for the engine, mite do that too haha

The stock thing is really good. Hence the description:

As many RB26 owners will know, the individual throttle bodies on these engines are a fantastic idea but all too often cause more problems then their worth. If they break or lose alignment, it can be very costly to fix or replace.

leaves me a little dubious. I haven't tried one but unless you're looking for something different I'd leave it. Asking the seller for dyno figures etc is usually interesting.

ye, that description is a bit sh|t filled to say the least

What set-up are you running with that RB26...if you don't mind me asking?

lol am i the only one who's never heard of "Stryder"... they keep talking about it as if it was Bosch or some globally recognised brand. Its made in Thailand... lol

I wouldn't put it on my RB26... esp if you live int he US, coz JDM Tyte engines are all expensive n shit over there. You wouldn't want granules of cast aluminium from Thai crap going into your engine and scoring the sides of your block would you? Don't skimp on the dollars on the small stuff when you're spending big.

Form the looks, u can unbolt it in half, so u could get in there and give it a damn good cleaning of all castings...would be good to see the inside

Id still want to do other things for power before spending on one of those..

niismoid.....what car is the engine going onto?

[R31Nismoid]

my gts-r

painted plenums look like shit IMO

makes the engine bay look lop sided

unless your turbo and pipes and shit are painted too.

2/3s of the shit painted and the other 1/3 not painted looks retarded

paint/coat/what ever the f**k your engine covers

polish the plenum and turbo/piping.

then it looks nice and even and organised

[R31Nismoid]

Yeah, but your a hardcore ricer man.

[Dahtone Racing]

not really i just like my shit to look right

attention to detail and presentation mean a lot to me when building cars.

[R31Nismoid]

i was having a stir

Personally i dont have time to clean polished gear. Paint, clean once in a blue moon and thats it.

If polished gear isnt spot on clean, it looks crud IMO.

But each to thier own

[Dahtone Racing]

thats true

its a lot harder to maintain polished/chromed bits with cars that get driven.

whats wrong with a single, way less cluttered. clean inlet manifold looks best, like mine for eg.
