Hey all good evening,

Nice to see the site is still as clunky as ever on mobile ?

Been a couple years since posting so go easy.

Finally put the RB (Neo) in my S15 and the bonnet doesn't shut, so have succumbed to going a forward facing inlet setup, even though I was sold on the TCS delete of the 33 S1 TB.

 

So what's the go these days?

Car will make 400kw and is a street/track orientated build.

Is the RB26 adaption worth It? Or perhaps the new Pro Flow stuff that's been kicking around (Not keen on the 90mm throttle body though)

Rips/Plazmaman/Greddy and Freddy etc or even Otosaku garage or whatever they are....

Chasing the best results for tuning/power delivery and of course longevity of the motor (unopened 48,000k)

Where are we at these days with where people sit on the RB ffp debacle?

Thanks and kind regards,

Trim part of the bonnet, if not a GReedy plenum would do the trick, however you'll lose some low-end due to the runner design. Alternatively if you have some time to burn, get an Otaku plenum (which looks like a Hypertune knock off). They're all made to order from China and shipped direct to you (tried to order one myself, told me it's 4x weeks to make) also MADCAT Industries has an indentical kit for sale too on eBay, just wait for those store wide sales and grab one for cheap.

If you move to a Plazmaman plenum you'll still have the same issue as OEM. The Yez Racing boys are having the same issue, albeit in a S13.

    • Absolutely this. Yes, except not vacuum hose. Something oil/fuel safe is a better idea.
    • Like a Stagea, but not as cool! Hope you have enough garage space for this, or is something going to leave to make way for it?
    • The new project has arrived. I have wanted one of these for such a long time, well before that meathead Clarkson drove one in Africa. I really wanted an E34 but I have some medical issues that mean I *really* can't bump my head and the lack of airbags in the E34 made it just too big of a risk.  I don't know why I've always liked these older touring BMW's to be honest, but man I love this car. She's been pretty well maintained for her 243k's with what appears to be only a single oil leak at the oil filter housing gasket. It has a bunch of updates including later model bumper and headlights, 7 series billion-way adjustable seats and it came with a few spares and another set of wheels with legal tyres. I got a unregistered car permit from the RTA and drove it back from Canberra on Saturday.                   First cab off the rank is cleaning it up for blue slip. I dont know how picky they'll be but I figured I'd clean the headlights, fix the oil filter housing gasket, replace the speed sensors (throwing errors) and swap the OE wheels (the M Sport wheels have a big chunk out of one of the tyres.) I also need to replace all 6 gas struts - 2 for bonnet, 2 for hatch and 2 for hatch glass. The car tries to eat me whenever i open any of these. My plan for this car; Ultimately, this is a budget car. I can't afford to throw lots at it and its because I have another car that I got this, if something breaks its no big deal. I will just maintain and repair it really. But eventually I want to do a manual conversion. It actually looks pretty straight forward for E39's and the trickiest part will be sourcing the parts.  I do need to replace some suspension arms or bushes because wow, she's a floaty old girl. She's also fantastically slow. Like really, really slow. When pulling back out on to the freeway on Sat after a quick pull over I needed to wait until no cars were visible before going.  Oh, and the guy I bought it from had a gorgeous R31 GTS-X in the garage. 
    • Do you have a picture? I assume it is a breather for gearbox oil as it expands, it should have a vacuum line run nice and high in the engine bay (R32 GTR has it on a top bellhousing bolt)
    • Hi all, I am putting an r33 gtst gearbox into a VL and have noticed what looks like a vacuum barb on the box (on top in the middle). Suspecting that it's a vacuum line but I'd like to double check, if someone could confirm the function of that would be great. Cheers in advance.
