Nismo Plenum Group Buy #2

Following Sinista32’s successful Nismo plenum GB last year, I’ve decided I would start another for those that missed out.

Time frame: Group buy run’s from now until the 14th April. This end date is subject to change

Price: TBC closer to the closing date due to fluctuations in the exchange rate – estimated to be ~$1650 delivered. A quick Google will tell you this is a very good price.

Supplier: TBC shortly

No of people: 5 is the magic number

Details of the Plenum:

~ Nismo plenum as discussed on SAU. If you have a comment or technical question, put it in that thread please.

- Group buy #1 – info from the first GB plus results

- Nismo information – from this link. (It's the sales speak)

FEATURES:
To find the most suitable shape for tuning engines (400ps to 600ps), the diameter and the length of the intake pipe, and the cross section shape of the intake collector was redesigned. The distribution of air to each tube was improved to provide more equal airflow volume, improving torque in the mid-speed range. Improved air intake volume between the pipes of the front and rear sides reduces the difference in air intake temperature on both sides of the turbine, optimizing the air-fuel ratio and ignition timing and providing increased output and fuel consumption. Simple bolt-on installation means that no additional work is required (however, the throttle linkage and throttle sensor must be adjusted).

SPECIFICATIONS:
- Collector volume: 4.1 liter (genuine = 3.4 liter)
- Intake pipe length: 73.8mm (genuine = 48.5mm)
- Intake pipe diameter: tapered from ø 43 to ø 45 (genuine = ø 45)
- Material, production method: cast aluminum

PRODUCT NOTES:
- Intake temperature difference at the entrance of turbo chargers is improved averaging 18% in 2,400 to 7,600 rpm range.
- At 4,800 to 7,600 rpm, power output is increased by an average of 1.8%, while fuel economy is improved averaging 0.4%.
- This product cannot be installed with the engine mounted.
- Installation of this product will change the characteristics of the engine, necessitating adjustment of the engine control unit. Failure to do so very likely will result in damage to the engine.
- The engine improvement figures shown above are based on internal company testing. The actual level of improvement will depend on the engine specifications, conditions of air-fuel mixture and ignition timing, weather and the precision of measurement.
- This product cannot be used with single, large-diameter throttle chambers.

So who's keen?


Cheers,

Joel

I might be keen, need to find out if this plenum fits in a vl

I assume it should...the stock rb26 fit's ok i beleive.

Never heard of someone putting a nismo plenum in a VL...nice and unqiue :-)

Hey man, will let you know tomorrow if i can jump in on this group buy..

This is an awesome price guys, wont find it any cheaper anywhere else an if you's are serious about your motor you'd have one of these hanging of the side of it!

Congrats guys. I don't think you'll regret it one bit.

...and it's cheaper than our GB.

yep, can't wait to get it. Final price ended up less then $1550 delivered.

So how many people did we end up getting for the GB?

3 of us

Ibz, yourself and me :-)

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
