Kym,

If it takes longer than a six pack then give us a call and me and Macka willl put a cartons worth of hours into gapping your plugs. 2 beers to change, 10 beers to discuus how well we did the job.

If it's too much hassle, then buy a Greddy manifold, you can then re-gap them in 15mins, only cost $1500.

Hi Hicks,

I know about 5 different people that will make custom plenum's for you, just depends on what you want, and how much your willing to pay. Some of the custom jobs look excellent, and will be significantly cheaper than mine.

Hard to beat $1400AUS tho for the fantastic quality of the g-reddy plenum. Taka's pricing.

The G-Reddy plenum is very well designed, but that is not to say that you can't have something better than factory for a cheaper price. The plenum is going to provide very little in way of top end power if your still using the factory turbo. It does provide extra torque, and due to less piping the pressure drop is minimised. The major benefits in terms of power is when using a larger turbo, as the factory manifold is quite restrictive.

The G-Reddy plenum has alot of aditional metal left for port matching if you want to maximise the flow.

I thought the 90mm throttle body caused some bottom end problems (idle at over 1000rpm etc), this could be fixed by machining up some sleaves to fit inside the throttle body to act as a choke sleave does on webber IDA carby's.

Rev210,

Yes the larger throttle body does cause it to idle a bit higher, but this is of little concern, it still provides very good throttle response so I won't bother to adjust it. The Infiniti throttle body is a direct bolt on for the Greddy plenum, therefore this would provide a better idle for the car, but they are still quite difficult to find.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
