LOL , the reason I asked was because we keep getting people asking about aftermarket plenum chambers and comparing them to the 33 25DET item . I was wondering if the fact that NA engines only have at best sea level air pressure to charge the cylinders is the 34 25DET plenum going to do it any better in a turbo app . You would think that by having two inlets the cylinder distribution would be better than the single , granted no RB26 inlet though possibly of value if the bits were available cheaply .

Thoughts ? Cheers adrian .

I'll respond to the question with a question:

If there was an advantage to be had in forced aspiration application, do you consider the Nissan engineers would have specified it differently? ie. there would have to be a reason why they gave the pattern makers in the foundry two different designs for turbo vs naturally aspirated RB25.

Certainly sparked some conversation though. Good work :D

Actually looking at the pic above the 2JZGE looked a bit better probably larger to suit 3L . I wondered if feeding the six runners was better from two locations than one . I suppose if you look at the single entry 25 DET plenum the air is directed (straight shot) at the middle cylinders and has to turn corners to reach 2 and 5 and the furthest 1 and 6 . If two inlets were placed to line up with 2 and 5 would distribution be much better ie with the sorts of gas velocity needed to feed a 250-300 Kw engine . BTW I'm not after such power levels but it may get some what they want without spending furtunes .

Cheers A .

heres a good setup....wouldnt it be great if there was one throttle body for each cylinder. Sure beats the single setup and its gotta beat the twin na setup...whaddiya reckon mates? One big chamber that feeds individual throttle bodies for each inlet port....geez why didnt nissan employ me?

The real decision you need to make adrian is do you want the longer runners in your manifold for down low-mid response or the shorter ones like that in a 26 for the better mid-high range flow and response. You more concerned with road drivability or when you hit the track for some sweet circuit action? I reckon that makes your options a little simpler...however you already knew that. Id go 26 and adapt it. There are adapter plates for 26 inlets also im sure greddy make em or someone else. Surely 26 inlet systems arent too exxy? I looked at some ages ago when i was gonna use one, and they were only around 300 bux for whole inlet side. Dont know if thats cheap or exxy though.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
