Also this has 2 spots for vac hoses do they both go to the manifold ?

And this is a solenoid that is used to trigger (I think) the vacuum to the charcoal canister when the (factory) ECU determines that it is OK to do it.  So, no, both do not go to the manifold.  On the stocker, one would go to a vacuum source and the other snakes off towards the front of the car.

Is it for vac?

Yes, but not in the way that you're thinking.  That pipe is visible there, and on the other side of the timing cover.  On the inlet side, it is connected to the plenum.  On the other side it is connected to the suction port of the charcoal canister.  It provides the suck that purges the canister (and fuel tank) into the engine.

The solenoid valve you posted earlier is also connected to both the plenum and the charcoal canister.  It is the switch that makes the valve on the charcoal canister open.  There's no flow in that line, just a vacuum signal.

All the plenum vacuum you could ever want is available off the many vac ports they added down the back end of yoru new one.

Did you decide to put this plenum on without making notes on how the original setup was plumbed up?

I work shift work and every time I started pulling the standard stuff off I got called to work for 12 hour shifts so I lost track and that's been the problem ahha

It's not for gain it's perparing for top mount turbo setup coming soon

 

Ah yes, but I have a top mount neo and do not need this manifold :P

That said, you're in it, and it's on the car, so may as well finish it now.

Sorry, but that makes no sense.  There is more than one way I can read your question and none of them make sense.

1. Are you talking about the small hose on the barb on the intercooler return pipe just before the blue silicon joiner?  If so, that is not stock, it has been put there by somebody else, so it could be for anything.  It could be connected to that boost controller we see behind the PS reservoir.  It could be for a boost gauge.

2. Are you talking about the boost controller in the background?  If you are, one side (the input side) must come from the turbo outlet or intercooler hot pipe.  The other side goes to the wastegate actuator.

That one (the barb, near the blue joiner) is stock on a R34 neo, it does indeed go to the power steering. It's used for speed sensitive power steering (somehow) and disconnecting it does result in some VERY heavy steering.. as well as a boost leak).

It runs from the PS to the charge pipe. It doesn't run to the plenum, so it'll go back to somewhere on your intercooler piping. If this doesn't exist, well you can block the hose if you like heavy steering all the time, or get a fitting put on your charge pipes.

Yes the barb is factory on the 34s thank you glad you could understand haha

Thanks so don't delete it just put it back into the cooler pipes no problem thanks for explaining it to I wasn't sure what it was for

    • Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.
    • From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)
    • In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird
    • Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller
    • So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
