Just completed fitting the rb26 inlet manifold to our rb20det

The process was simple

Took just over 1 weekend to complete

*Cut rb20det runners

*Cut flanges off of rb26 manifold

*Aluminum weld them

*Weld aluminum flange to mount throttle body to the front of the plenum

*Cut and re-position water inlet

*Use porting tool to grind all uneven levels in welded runners (allot of porting is needed)

*Install throttle body

*Install stock rb26 aac valve setup

*Install manifold

*install fuel system

*Run new vacuum lines

*Rerun new intercooler piping

*Relocate bov

....thats about it

People said that i would of lost power

but all we got was good results :P

*The boost is building quicker

*The acceleration is way better now

*The throttle response is really great

*Less intercooler piping (about 4 feet or so less)

and no need to weld a flange to mount the aac valve, we used the stock rb26aac valave setup

* i really cant complaim about anything its a really great upgrade*

more pics will be posted soon

It will never work. Opps it does damn it .

Ha ha I always wonder why people pull the rb26 intake off and go to a single throttle body

You have done it the oppisite way and made more power good on you.

Would have been great to see an in gear rolling start 40-60km/h, 40-80km/h, 40-100km/h times and a dyno. Did you get the ecu re-flashed? If not then can there really be that much of a difference if the things airflow characteristics didnt change enough to require a tune....or if it did....do you know what is different about the tune in the way fo fuelling and ignition?

Surprised its made such an obvious difference with the turbo and power you are running because there have been various posts with some positive and some negative...lol woudl love to get my head around the reasons :P

But good work on getting it all together and running to your satisfaction

one you drive yout car every day and you do an upgrade you will fill the difference be it good or bad

The placebo effect can be very strong when you have put a lot of time and effort into a mod though.

Dyno is hard evidence, shame would have loved to have seen a before and after

I'm curious to know how you got the IAC/AAC system to work considering the log sits on top of the RB26's inner manifold section and has two steel tubes decending between two of the runners and connectiong up to the AAC/IAC chamber .

How ever you got it to work - well done .

it was really easy

The 2 lines that run from the two steel tubes decending between the two RB26 runners to the AAC/IAC chamber are vacuum lines

so what i did was run the lines from the 2 metal hose fittings under the RB26 plenum to the AAC/IAC chamber

      Power steering pump r32

      By waxracing · Posted

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MR51MN · Posted

      Cheers, yeah it was recently imported, is the actual Nissan not an Infiniti so will have to do some chasing around for parts.    Any ideas if the side skirts from a Q50 would fit on the 400r?
