How-to: Greddy-style Plenum Install

[PsYLoR]

I'd send it back.

ok all i can say is buy a plazmaman if you want a front plenum...simply a work of art and so worth the money. i am never buying cheap parts again!

[PSI Parts]

Plazmaman certainly looks good, however it really depends if you want to change the length of the runners, and there is a lot of debate about that too.

seems alot of ppl are having dramas with these manifolds, i put mine on about year and half ago... took few days, didnt even use new gaskets and never even got it shaved. hasnt leaked and still going strong lol

even came with every bolt i needed to bolt it all on + vacum fittings.

keep at it should all work out in the end.

Hi all!

What is needed to install this type of plenum to my R34 GTT triptronic? I know already one is the Idle valve.

What else will i need?

Hey guys

after reading through the thread...did anyone attempt the install without blocking off that line(fitting a bolt, clamp it shit) ?

[frozenwaffles]

yes i have all my lines connected like factory... quite easy really

Yeah, you say like factory but i dont see how?

theres no coolant bleed valve on the new plenum thou?

anyone else done the install without blocking off that hose?

Just unbolt the bleed valve from the plenum and poke it up between the inlet runners

[Akis]

Anyone knows what should i do to install this to a R34 GTT with rb25det NEO?

Please someone answer because i want to install it and i don't want to wait for parts...

Anyone else done the install without blocking up the pipe coming out of the thermostat housing?

Hi Zebra , any chance of a pic of where the bleed valve is . I'm interested to know if a mount could be fabbed to fit the knock off manifold to mount the bleed valve conveniently .

I was looking at one on an R33 yesterday and I'm also interested to see if the plenum inlet could be flange modified to take the std TB and so leave room for the std washer tank .

Cheers A .

there are adapaters you can buy for about $90 to bolt on the factory TB.

also if you run a 90 degree silicon bend of the TB and down thru your usual intercooler hole. you can retain your washer bottle..

its all so very simple.

if you look around for the greddy instructions in pdf, you will see they remove absolutely everything water hose wise and run a hose from the nipple at the back on the heater hose to the nipple at the front near the thermostat

pretty easy

how did everyone stretch out the inner of the throttle cable that far, i cant seem to get any slack

[M3ld]

I bought a greddy style plenum KIT from vulture motorsport. Cost me $565 deliviered. It also came with a throttle body adapter and all the other shit you need to do this. Was a prick of a job. Im not a mechanic but like to do my own work so I had a crack at it. I Was pretty much stumped with it half on until I found this thread. Awesome write up

I run a 90 deg silicone bend straight off the throttle body. I had to cut the existing hole a bit more to make it work. Got a new lenth of straight intercooler pipe and had a vaccum nipple for something on the Power fc and the AAC line fitting welded in. Because the washer bottle now didnt fit I took it to the plastice welders. They chopped the bottle in half, right beside the internal pumps and sealed it back up. It half the capacity of stock now but at least it isn't a defect and you still have enough water to wash the windescreen.

The tosser who owned my car before me cut up the stock plenum and put the throttle body to the front greddy wank style. It hurt tuning and I have NFI why it was done. Ill put up some before and after shots....
