[Kieran]

If that's your engine bay in your avatar, I'd say you have a fair job ahead of you.

[Hotwire]

Kieran, the front facing plenum may cause you some issues.........

[Kieran]

Really, why is that?

freeze it and chisel it off...... get a socket bit and whack it in until it gets into shape...

[Kieran]

thnx for the help guys concerning the wheels nut. i smahed the crap out of it with a hammer and a 18mm socket abd\\nd as we speak my tyre should be getting fixed...

wat sort of issues would i b facing with my plennum.?

[Hotwire]

I was under the impression that changes like that affect emissions, and any emissions change means big issues as you would then be up for emissions testing. Some can correct me if I am wrong. Perhaps ring regency technical enquiry line and ask what are the laws about changing plenum?

yeah id say thats about right.

im not sure on the full laws of it though.

is it just an aftermarket plenum with stock runners and forward facing tb?

or is it all aftermarket? cant really tell from your avatar.

Why is it that most ppl with skylines are getting defected and they pull me over and say nothing about a defect.. Got pulled over last night, all he did was shine the torch at my tyres, which are almost brand new, and yeah, let me go.. Guess owning an import your bound to get defected sometime...

P.s. I agree, dont drive anywhere near the bay on friday and saturday nights..

there was easier ways then those 2 but if it works it works

also, from the picture youll have to put the standard heat sheild back on over the turbo if it not on there. if you dont have any of these parts just take it through as is and get your list. much eaiser then pissfarting around trying to find bits that they might not even do you for.

[Kieran]

to reduce getting done for the plenum, would it be worth going and getting the turbo tuned right down along with the fuel ratio/mixture or wat eva u get done lol...

as for weather its got stock runners and wat not i wouldn have a clue sorry.

I see in another thread your car has made 280 rwkw, so it's an aftermarket turbo I gather.

That will have to come off anyway.

As I said before, pretty big job by the looks of your engine bay - it will need to be reasonably stock.

[Kieran]

Its a HKS Turbo..

Its a HKS Turbo..

This HKS turbo replaces the stocky in standard position and is internally gated.

The plazmaman plenum pictured uses the stock runners.

Note also the plumb-back BOV, which is legal.

None of this really matters, what matters is:

1) suspension allows underside to be at least 100mm from ground

2) noise at 3000rpm

3) emissions reading from exhaust

I havent been online for a while so I'm probably too late.

The TEIN suspension is fully adjustable and you should be able to adjust the ride high to meet legal requirements. That said, the only thing that was illegal was the exhaust being too loud, just needed a resonator or or something to take the drone out.

Let us know how you went huh?

[cruzin33]

I thought the plazmaman plenum used custom runners or does the plenum just bolt straight on?

[rad100]

does anyone know wat the story is with fmic and regency?? i got done a week ago for fmic!!!

[cruzin33]

You cant get a defect for a fmic but most times to fit them you have to cut your frount reo bar and thats a defect but if the cop said nothing about the reo bar then just lay a complant and plz dont be scard of cops they are just lil kids in blue

[cruzin33]

did you get defected late last year aswell?
