I am using the greddy with great results on my 25. The head is off atm for larger cam installation. This is the 2nd time I have lifted the head since we built the engine and on both occasions the evenness of the burn across all 6 has been very impressive. It would appear that the greddy does offer very even distribution and certainly has no probs delivering enough to make good power.

The cleaner engine bay is just another plus for this style of plenum. Thumbs up all the way from me.

I also have the greddy plenum,

If you are after a Q45 throttle body contact Throtle Bodies Australia

just make sure you state that they have the same TPS as SR20 (can anyone confirm this)

He makes custom billet throttle bodies,

MAKE SURE YOU SPECIFY EVERYTHING AND THAT HE KNOW WHAT A Q45 THROTTLE BODY IS

this will eliminate the hassle that I went through.

I didn't state the type of TPS and had a little trouble finding the universal TPS that they say they use.

It cost $550 delivered from memory but that was a while ago

RIPS ones are supposed to be good, I have got one on my RB30DET but have not run it yet - Hopfully get it tuned next week!

around $1200nzd

thats for the basic rb25 manifold, the rb26 ones are far more expensive...

Thats way dearer than a Q45 new form japan.... and the nissan Q45 tps works fine. And honestley the Q45 throttle body shits on anything aftermarket to drive, the staged linkage setup is a god send on some cars, alot of the aftermarket jobbies are great for track and drag but suck to live with day to day with on/off clutches and so forth.

Aftermarket throttle bodies are great IF you need it, me i'll take the Q45 on 90% of cars i do, and the a/m ones fill the rest of the requirements.

What's the stock one good for?

Getting really angry and annoyed when trying to change spark plugs ;)

Just realised you were talking about the throttle body and not the plenum.......carry on.

Wondering whether to get a bigger TB for my forward facing plenum..

Yeah ive been wondering that aswell. Autosalon did a good review on the Hypertune one on their R33, said throttle response was a lot sharper and the dyno graph showed a power gain right throughout the rev range. Hmm...

dave i still have a rips plenum here. would love to trial fit it on your motor to see y i couldnt get it on mine. engine out of the car would make it a bit easier. gasket matched it was something else maybe water line or air reg or something.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
