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 ???

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      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 .

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?

      100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
