about $500 for the plenum and about another $100 for the throttle body (do remember the throttle body has to have a mounting plate welded to it and it is an aftermarket one as well :) )

as it has to be sanded and then polished and it is quite tricky to get into some of the small spaces.

you could sand a lot of it yourself though...i've sanded and polished my own plenum pipes and rocket covers before....it's not hard, especially if you have some machinery.

i woulda sand/bead blasted it first

Keegs find me a polisher that does it at that price and is as good quality and I will happily change :)

do the main sanding yourself (sand blasting as well)....not hard. I was going to do my greddy plenum but just couldn't be farked. It's only the hard to get places you need a professional to do. And the polishing bit isn't exceptionally hard either.

no plazma man is a differnt plenum, the greddy is cast and the plazma man one is welded together. From what i know both are of good quality and workmanship, but my car had a greddy one already thats all.

Whats the difference between the plazmaman plenum and the greddy. Is one a cheap copy of the other?

yes...plazmaman is a copy of the greddy...from what i know...I doubt there are HUGE differences...but as with most copies there would be some differences.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
