Hi peeps,

Does anyone know where can I get this type of Manifold ? (to suit RB20)

Cheers

Ford

thats a greddy flop to suit RB25, i hope they have fixed the coolant passage water injection from those copies now :D i have seen at least 5 hydro'd engines from them now.

but seriously hypertune and so forth do fabricated plenums for rb20 from memory.

Ebay Link 1 is what I have on the way. Best design I have found thus far. Uras, didnt Trust make an RB20 one yeons ago???

nah cause twentys are gay :D

haha kidding. is yours making noise yet? when we going for a test drive.

HRMMM strange, I vaguely remember seeing a picture of one on the R31 House site a while back (translation wasnt too good, but ah well)

Mine goes broom broom just after easter (I HOPE), Ill have to give u a ride, personally Im scared :rant:

i have one of these wat you mean buy that wanna make sure before i put it on

im based in melbourne and got called out to a workshop (remain unamed) to investigate genuine greddy plenums (turned out to be copies) hydraulic locking engines...... it turned out that a whole batch of these copies landed in melbourne and the manufacturer had tapped thru the water passage into the intake runner.... nice work. just pressure test the water passge if your worried.

Unless its a pretty wild RB20 then dont bother. The std plenum seems to work really well for the sort of power you are going to get out of a 2L 6 cylinder. Spend all you rmoney on good quality bits, mainly turbo and a good tuner and you will get good results

Got this today....Its a KU Engineering one....Friggin top notch welding and design....Im stoaked...Should go nicley.

EDIT: Its really shiny too just my camera sucks the fat wang! (not that shine does anything for its performance) Also its fairly thick - the chamber, not just my old fella :happy: so it shant have problems leaning out a rear cylinder. But time will tell..

couldnt agree more with Roy, i make 366.3hp (on two diferent dynos one in shootout mode) and still have more room to play, only real benifit you'll get is shorter pipe work.. spend the money elsewhere

HEHE Luckliy the figures that I'm chasing are higher. I totally agree that on pretty much any RB20 its not necessary, but it does get rid of alotta pipes and hoo ha when you wanna get to something on the engine :happy:

OH, and if youve spent the money everywhere else and am stubborn like me and wanna stay RB20 then go for eeeeeettttt

What power are you chasing from the RB20? It will be interesting to see what power it makes with the plenum. Be great if someone could do a before and after with the plenum...i would except i just experimented with my engine at some expense only to put it back to the way it was so im shy about trialling anything for the time being

I'll want to do the b4 and after thing with my rb20 after its all run in and going properly with the plazma man plenum just to see if there are any gains,but thats a while off just yet

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
