hey guys ive installed my intake plenum but have no idea how to install the top hose outlet on the plenum. cant weld it because of the different types of material. is there a special glue of some sort that you use to put it in. or what have you used?

thanks

I had a kit that came with my plenum. Included all the bolts, fittings etc. It had the fitting for the radiator hose. Now i got mine off someone else but he bought it from autobarn and they sold him the kit as well.... So maybe give autobarn a go

Its basically just a press fitting that will just tap in, seal it with some loctite or similar when you put it in

Im betting autobarn will have it it or will be able to get it in for you. If not I think (but not 100% sure) that the genuine Greedy plenums are the same so might be able to get the fitting through nengun or something in the option parts?

EDIT: Just checked nengun and greenline, doesnt look like you can get the fitting for the Greedy plenums, Try autobarn

should be alright, might have to remove the throttle body at the worst. Using a sealing compound when you knock it in for a good seal :D

smear it with liquid gasket and shove it in, hit it with a bit of wood for it to squish in.

I doubt any shavings will come off as your not shaving anything. If they do come off its in your water not your oil which is no biggie.

oh, you said "tapping" which is tapping a new thread, when you do this, quite a bit of shavings come out.

but i can see in the pic, just put a rag in the hole and do ur busness, pull the rag out, should catch anything that fell in ???

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By -Jimmy- · Posted

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.

      Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
