F#&K dude, this was one of the very cold company plenums correct? on an exchange basis? i say get them to refund your money, and look into a perforamz one or A philamantra plenum (he is the guy off Performance forums that does rb plenums) I have seen his work in the flesh, and its very nice work. they have variable length trumpets inside the plenum and 5 litre+ capacity.

Well i called the place today and he said take it off send it back to them and they will fix which i thaught was good but then he wanted me to pay the postage on it.So after a few choice words with this turd i rang QLD consumer protection and they told me that the company that made the plenum will have to cover all the costs for everything inc taking the plenum off the car and putting it back on.So i call company again and tell them that consumer protection said that he will ware the cost of everything if the plenum is faulty.After that he started raving crap about him knowing his rites and blah blah blah so i think consumer protection will have to sort this one out.

Mayhem By lifting of the runners its pulled away from the runner its hard to explain but you are welcome to come have a look

Adam talk directly with mick,if he is still there,i had a problem with a cooler from them thet was full of filings and them fixed it up and payed frieght.Also if you payed for this product by credit card the transaction is counted as happened in WA and he would have to contest any action by consumer affairs in WA costing him at least 1 airfare to WA,much cheaper for him to pay frieght.

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
