Yeh they do, but think I would rarher get a new turbo first

Good plan! As for fabbing up a FFP, there was one just posted recently in the Build Thread section, i think it was the 2 guys with the 32, go have a look and get some feedback from them?

Its a bit of a vicious circle, to get to 300 kw I will need a new turbo, then probably need a hi mount exhaust manifold, then because of that rework the intake pipework. Just have to work out the best order to buy it all in so I can keep adding to the setup as I go.

To get 300kw you will need a turbo that will do the job, to get 300kw you will NOT need a hi mount exhaust manifold... You can just run the setup like many have in the past!

Be nice if I didnt have to, looking at getting a hypergear ATR43 SS2 BUT Stao said 280kw is the max from standard ex manifold and internal gate.

So run a bigger turbo on the standard manifold and external gate? I know the Kando boys etc were doing it in that thread? I am sure you can make 300kw low mounted! AND if you want to go aftermarket manifold you will find mobs like 6Boost and Brae make low mount manifolds too (Look at ANGRYRBGTX build thread)... But once again if you dont want to spend $1000 on an intake plenum then I assume you wont want too on an Exhaust manifold either?

It's reaching the limits of the stock exhaust manifold... On 98 at least... ;)

Not that you would notice 20kw less.

I was waiting for you too chime in ;) Fair enough hehe

Well if I go exhaust manifold I will definately see a big improvement for money spent wheras it may not be so significant or needed to for the plenum to hit my goal of 300kw.

Not saying I wont put a FFP on, just need to prioritize my purchases.

dunno what GTS kid just said but look at the GTR, those clever little engineers at Nissan designed the forward facing plenum and that didn't cause "uneven air distribution" as he described.

I agree don't chop it tho, leave it or get a good greddy copy instead

RB26 and RB25 plenums are totally different, if you see on the RB25 there are guides that channel the air from the side into each cylinder, where as a RB26 doesn't have that.

GTS has a very valid point & reason.

My 2cents, people who chop stock plenums are morons.

Both the ffp and aftermarket exhaust manifold will see you defected instantly the minute the bonnet is popped, why not lean on the stock gear as much as possible, you will get to your goal and still look stock if you choose parts correctly.

fuark that's a sexy engine bay LOL.. too bad that cam cover is now matte black :)

I read on the forums somewhere that they weren't in Qld

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
