R34 Gtt Plenum Removal

[ashneel]

im in the middle of pulling my plenum and rocker covers off to get powder coated and im kinda stuck.

i have removed all bolts thats on the top side of the plenum, have removed the bolts from the TB also and it would budge. then i found out there is a bolt under neath the plenum. but i can only feel one and its still not budging. are there more bolts holding the plenum down???

please help

right tools for the job, you can get to it, just need to get the right tool, as said id say 3/8 with an extension and wobly joint, even a nice set of woble extensions

you've got to get at it with a 1/4" socket, what i did was use around 40cm of 3/8 extension so i could use my 3/8 ratchet incase they were tight - going at it with a 1/4" ratchet and you'll smash the gears.

i put a 3/8" to 1/4" adapter on the end of the 3/8" extension and used the rest as 1/4" extensions so it could get into the tight spots. luckily the end of my long 1/4" extension allows the socket to swivel a bit.
