Finally fitted the plenum to my car. It went on the same time as a Hybrid intercooler kit, and GFB plub back BOV.

It was a bit of a drama to fit, but I think it was well worth it in the end.

Here's a couple of pics:

It definitely doesn't feel any laggier than before. The large throttle body does make it feel more responsive, as it now takes less throttle position to have the same effect as the stock one.

Hopefully I'll have it on the dyno (to get re-tuned) sometime this week, so I'll let you know what numbers it puts down.

Interesting throttle body, where did you pick that up from?

I purchased it as a package (along with the plenum) on ebay. I had my choice of 80mm, 90mm or 100mm!!! I decided to go for the 80mm option, as the others seemed like overkill for the power output I'm after.

The car seems to be idling and starting better than it did with the standard throttle body. So I have no complaints.

I've had a read through the 'how to' guide for the Greddy copy plenum, and it seems like the issues I had to overcome on fitting this plenum, are very similar to what he had to go through when fitting the Greddy one.

I highly recommend this plenum and throttle body as an alternative to Greddy's plenum (or copy).

Did you have to muck about to fit the tps or did it bolt up? I've seen the TB's on ebay and often wondered if it would work

Very interested to see a before and after dyno.

Yeah we did have to modify the TPS, as the one I was sent suits other Nissan models (like pulsar) but not mine. I emailed the guy about it, and he said it was his mistake for not asking what engine model I have - so he's sending out the correct one.

Will post up the dyno results later this week (if I can get in to see the tuner).

Unfortunately I wasn't able to get in to see the tuner this week, and I'm going away for work this weekend, so I won't be able to get it re-tuned for a while.

What I can say though, is that I have gained some low end torque (which was completely unexpected)... My GT-RS now builds positive boost at just below 2000 rpm (in the taller gears) - about 500 rpm earlier than with the standard plenum. Even without the re-tune, this plenum is an awesome improvement.

I know of a certain 2JZ with a KU engineering Plenum and TB making 430rwkw, And a GTR that went 2seconds faster a lap (Mallala) after installing one. I am also looking at using one for my RB31DETT.

FYI

RB20, RB25 use the std runners

RB26 have KU Engineering cast runners to replace the throotle bodies

Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been unable to get on here for the last 6 months or so...

When the car was dyno tuned, it made 240 rwkw at 17psi - Which should equate to about 260rwkw on Unique Autosports dyno. As with my previous dyno tune when I went from my tuners dyno to the Dyno day at Unique it made about 10% more power.

It is a dream to drive, even on low boost (12psi) the car is a missile. I would recommend this upgrade to anyone.

hey guys sorry for bringing up an old thread but I've done some searching on here and I didn't want to pester everyone by kicking up another new thread.

I asked about a greddy style plenum on here not too long back - I got a reply from a company called performance-wise. I've dealt with this chap a few years ago and bought a PowerFC for my first 33gtst at a great price.

anyhow I got a pm for a greddy style plenum from this chap - I tried putting up the pic but it wont let me strangely so here's a link...

$460 shipped from uk - seems like a great price but my question is would it cause any issues? I've heard all kinds of thoughts on proper Greddy/Trust ones vs copies. I have to say I doubt theres any blinking difference, but seeing as you guys have tinkered with these cars over there far more than us backyard enthusiasts have here.

I'd appreciate your thoughts on this - I cant afford a true Trust/Greddy one (are they the same company?) so a copy would have to do but would I be looking at any tinkering/butchering to get it to fit?

thanks!

so its been a couple of years now and i am curious to see how many people run these plenums now

it seems they are also catering for neo engines which is good as genuine and fake greddys do not alot neo owners to use all the standard idle control etc

any updates would be awesome!

I running one now, and a guy around the corner from me was running one on his 25/30 and the guys at EFI in QLD were suprised at how much torque it was making. He selling it and a throttle body too suit in the for sale thread is anyone wants one.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
