really depends on what you're willing to spend...

$300 or so will be a greddy copy. there is a trader on here (vulture motorsport I THINK) that I can vouch for. the biggest problem with copies has always been the edgeing and the space between the water galleries and the air intakes. The vulture plenums are just fine. I filed down the edges a tiny bit because there was a slight lip on them and I'm anal. Really not necessary.

above that, $500+ or so, I would go plazmaman. the design has had a lot of time put into it to work well with the tuned length runners as standard. The ONLY reason I didn't do it was because I thought the Greddy plenum looked better, that's all! It's proven itself time and time again, not a waste of money in any sense.

$+++ I would choose Hyertune. These run on all the finest cars, high power or not. Just looking at them you can tell they have the best entry angle, are super high quality and have great volume. They look great too! But price is easily in the 4 digits. Unless you're chasing every tiny piece of performance, not completely necessary...

There is also a user on here, can't think of his name right now (I think it starts with an 'S' like SL33PY or something, he makes somewhat custome CNC plenums, very good quality), but if it is custom you really need then I would ask him...

Hope this helped!

i have a hypertune manifold sitting in my garage thats going on my r34 and it is amazing.

ive seen the greddy, plazmaman and hypertune all next to each other and in terms of looks its hypertune all the way.

however in saying that hypertune dont make manifolds for gtst's only gtr's i believe so go the plazmaman $1000 and its done.

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
    • appreciated it thanks   There are threads on the adaptor. I rear re anodising but didn’t know it will reduce strength   re mating services needing to be flat/ not painted, why would that be? I am devastated as car been off for a year, fixed power steering then installed bm57 master cylinder and just before driving it this came up. So annoyed   worried and afraid to drive it, no fun caliper coming off
