Has anyone installed an aftermarket Intake Plenum?

Like this one. http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...at=0&page=4

I'm cosidering one cause this would get rid of the intercooler pipping problem of having to have it come back to the same side either under the cooler or above the radiator. Beacause the intake would be on the other side of the engine.

Not necessarily this one but one simmilar.

looks like a greddy copy. i'd find other people who have used this particular manifold before you guy one. as long as the internal dynamics are the same, you can't go wrong for that much. greddy items are around a grand from memory.

I would be really interested to know if those plenums fit onto a RB25det NEO motor I have heard the way the plenums bolt up on a Neo are slightly different to a normal RB25det. Apparently they can be modded to suit but I have no real knowledge of exactly what is required. FYI greddy don't have a listing for a plenum for the RB25det NEO only the RB25det.

I have read on the Nissan Silvia forums that some of the ebay plenums are quite good as a few people are using them there, Trent at Status has tuned a few cars with these plenums.

The ones in particular are the ones from Thailand that go for about $699 and are apparently JUN copies. They do look the part but I don't know anyone with one.

Might be another idea anyhows....

hay just thought i'd add my 2cents..

i would probably buy the jun copy over the overs as the quailty is alot better ( smoother and less work )

try to find that thread on the DIY install for the greddy copy one i think there was afew posts about installing it onto a neo head.

the attached pics are what i will be installing onto my Neo in my stag. its a rb25 manifold that has been cut and then had a adapter welded to that so you can bolt on the gtr intake setup.. i will be running top feed gtr injectors, so i had to get a new rail and the gtr resister pack as well.

i haven't installed it yet but i've almost got everthing together to do it..

Cheers

VERY interested to see how this goes. best of luck!!!

just an update if you guys wanted to know.. i finally found a rail that mounts to the standard r33 mounts but uses top feed injectors. did a trial fit with standard GTR injectors and it all sweet. the only real expensive part was the rubber insulators for the top of the injectors from nissan, with 6 of them and 6 o-rings and $150 later.

found out that the Neo tps is different design to the R33 one, there was one guy on there that had made up an adpater plate that goes on to the end and the neo one attaches too (pics).

also does anyone know if you can adapter a R33 tps to a R34 ecu??

      Rusty roof repair

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      If your current chain of thought is, I'll go somewhere like pick and payless (or equivalent) and causally remove the bit of roof with your BYO grinder then casually weld that into your car... oof. It might sound easy but you will 100% end up with a warped roof. You say you'd prefer some ugly fab work, but I don't know if your prepared for how ugly this will be lol.  I've seen professional welders do similar but easier repairs and still end up with warped panels.  It is reasonable to assume that from your current skill level, you won't be able to do this cut and paste job while keeping flat panels.  Ok, but we are here to learn. This might be the go... jump on car sales, sort by price, buy the cheapest thing with rego and drive it home. This is your new practice vehicle. If you're thinking of doing the cut and paste job, try it on this car. Cut out the panel (hey it's a perfect fit) weld in the panel. See what you think of the results.  Next thing you could try, practice removing the entire roof in one piece by drilling out all the spot welds etc. Have a crack and welding the roof back on.

      I've never welded but I own a welder and I've always wanted to learn. In fact I had already looked at a 1 day welding course in Sydney.  I'd prefer some ugly metal fab than anything weak.  I'm challenging myself a lot with this car. For so many years I've just paid other people to do things and I've always been keen to learn and get better.

      Ok, thats a good starting point.  So before we start.... do you mind if the car say isn't a strong as it was before? My first thought is go excavating for rust. You'll be left with a gaping hole, that will be filled with fiberglass. You could make it look factory pretty easily but yeah, if you never crash it will never be an issue right? Before we look at other options, how confident are you welding?

      Oh this is my 1998 E39 5 series. It's worth more to me than financial value. It's a project car for me to love and work on without fear of f**king up something that has lots of value or that I need to keep running.

      I'm super realistic here. I love the car and want to keep it but I know it's days of perfect condition are well and truly over. I just want a fix that won't come back.
