Not sure if anyone else has had this problem, but worth checking before bolting the manifold on.

In this photo, my output on the water exchanger (oil filter mount) fouled against the socket on the solenoid when trying to slide the manifold on, making it impossible to get the blue plug on once bolted in place.

Had to remove the manifold and give the output a few love taps down to add clearance.

(Mines a genuine GReddy).

Im not sure if this has happend to anyone but once i installed my forward facing plenum my car it begun to miss real bad, runs really rich, missing on idle, back fired really bad going do the road, car is shaking really bad and feels like it wants to die.

Mods I have

3" exhaust

Hks bov

Greddy style plenum

Fuel pump gs043 or whatever

Super spark coilpacks

Air pod

Boost controller (10psi)

Tashiki stage 1 ecu upgrade

Afm,plugs and coilpacks where not touched during the install.

I did Press firm on the tip of one of the injectors but surly can't throw it out this much?

Just wanted to ask what throttle bodies people are running on these? I'm gonna ditch the adapter and standard throttle body and go for something that will fit nicely and I can get a 3" joiner straight on

Not sure which throttle body to go for. Don't want to spend a fortune on it

I picked up a second-hand Q45 throttle body - it's a direct fit.

Size difference with stock.

Yeah I ended up buying one from a member on here :) should be good. Notice much difference compared to stock TB? im not real worried about getting any improvements from it but interested to see if you noticed any difference

Plenum looks good. Im still tossing up o. What colour im going to paint mine

Cheers - build still in progress so haven't been able to fire it up yet.

I had to make up a custom throttle linkage bracket for the side - how did you mount yours?

Any tips on wiring up the Q45 TPS?

Bumping this thread back up, have read all the pages so thanks to all those that have contributed.

I will be installing one of these before i get my car tuned on the new computer, for those that have brought one lately, what have you found to be the best copy plenum that is the most complete. i dont want to be chasing down extra parts to get it finished. Also looking for one that has a replacement throttle body and fuel rail something like this, dont really want a chrome one though:

Thanks in advance

    • Like I said, "black magic" LOL In the end,  it is what it is, and hopefully, what this here knuckle head has done is an improvement and not a hindrance Not that I actually notice any negatives now, or that I will get any seat of the pants benefits when all is said and done, but best practice says I shouldn't be pulling intake air from the hot engine bay  Famous last words: I cannot see it being any worse than what it is at the moment 馃
    • If the gases flowing in those two tracts had the same properties, you could maybe use such broscience. But the exhaust has a different composition, different normal density, different actual density (because of different normal density, and mostly because of the massively higher temperature), and different viscosity (again because of much higher temperature). Consequently, all of the fluid dynamics parameters that matter, that you calculate from these inputs, such as the Reynolds number, friction factors (for wall friction) and so on, are all incomparable.
    • And we shall have to presume that Canada is the same?
    • In the US almost everything is E10. It can't exceed 10% by much or fuel systems have trouble adapting. At the same time because MTBE, MMT, and TEL are all banned they need as much ethanol in it as possible to boost octane.
    • I was mostly jesting. In my experience (and probably only my experience) the R34 GTT physical airbox space is actually too small to flow the amount of power it wanted. By sealing the box, I made it so it could only be fed by the ducts themselves. So you can seal it up and get nice cold air which IS good, but at a certain crossover point: More Hot Air > Less Cold Air I don't think you're at this point. In my case merely ducting the hot air intake with a very focused set of ducts counteracts the fact it's in a V8 engine bay. More cold air obviously best. The solution looks great.
