I was under the impression that changes like that affect emissions, and any emissions change means big issues as you would then be up for emissions testing. Some can correct me if I am wrong. Perhaps ring regency technical enquiry line and ask what are the laws about changing plenum?

Why is it that most ppl with skylines are getting defected and they pull me over and say nothing about a defect.. Got pulled over last night, all he did was shine the torch at my tyres, which are almost brand new, and yeah, let me go.. Guess owning an import your bound to get defected sometime...

P.s. I agree, dont drive anywhere near the bay on friday and saturday nights..

thnx for the help guys concerning the wheels nut. i smahed the crap out of it with a hammer and a 18mm socket abd\\nd as we speak my tyre should be getting fixed...

wat sort of issues would i b facing with my plennum.?

there was easier ways then those 2 but if it works it works :D

also, from the picture youll have to put the standard heat sheild back on over the turbo if it not on there. if you dont have any of these parts just take it through as is and get your list. much eaiser then pissfarting around trying to find bits that they might not even do you for.

Its a HKS Turbo..

This HKS turbo replaces the stocky in standard position and is internally gated.

The plazmaman plenum pictured uses the stock runners.

Note also the plumb-back BOV, which is legal.

None of this really matters, what matters is:

1) suspension allows underside to be at least 100mm from ground

2) noise at 3000rpm

3) emissions reading from exhaust

I havent been online for a while so I'm probably too late.

The TEIN suspension is fully adjustable and you should be able to adjust the ride high to meet legal requirements. That said, the only thing that was illegal was the exhaust being too loud, just needed a resonator or or something to take the drone out.

Let us know how you went huh?

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
