Ok, so at some stage I was thinking of doing a plenum on the 34. There are a few problems that need to be accounted for and anyone with experiance to help out a bit.

My car is an auto so currently I run Nistune computer.

Unfortuently the nistune cant compinsate for the loss of the traction controll unit after the Throttlebody so it locks the car into third. Which means I cant replace the plenum. Enless I want to go down the road of a stand alone ECU, shift kit etc etc.

Is there anyway you can keep the traction control + installing aftermarket plenum... possibley a custom setup? Im looking at going a hi mount plenum, smaller body with longer runners as to avoid loosing response.

Hey mate, i've got maunel GTT with a Plazmanan plenum running R33 S2 TB, my engine light stays on because the the factory R34 TB has two sensor, one for TPS and one for the ECU and the R33 one don't.

What power are you aiming? Coz there's no point having traction control when you have a 280rwk+ car lol

Think there are ways around it, i'e Greedy makes a kit for it i'm pretty sure.

Or alternately just take the bulbs out :D

ive been told by a forum trader that greedy dont make the plenum for r34.

ull have to go plazmaman or something else (however the plazmaman ones r quite nice im going to be getting one shortly)

unfortunately no.....greddy dont make it for the ER34. but to be honest the plazmaman plenums seem to be quite amazing. supports over 1000hp, gets rid of all the ugly shit in the engine. and they claim it will increase throttle response by 20hp throughout the revrange. the best thing about plazmaman plenums is they keep the factory long runners so your response is always there.

my mate has had it on his r34 rb25/30 setup for about 6months now but his moving to a rb26 head and selling the plenum.

pretty cheap check it if your interested.

plazmaman plenums on the NEO are a pain in the ass to fit

and after all the drama they still do do anything for TCS

which is why im in the process of making something so the ECU thinks everything is still stock with regards to TCS

its not that simple

if you plug in the second TPS (one for the TCS) the car will not rev unless its seeing a full open signal

then the TCS mechanism is the size of two coke cans joined together where you gonna fit that?

thats right, even after being in contact with the blokes from nistune there response was that they havent written anything into there chips yet to compinsate for the loss of TCS so automatically from there tests on the neo the Nistune locks the car into third without the TCS unit there. My answer has mostly been answered, as I havent seen many if any posts regarding this I was curious to see if any manafacturer had created a plenum or TB with supporting attachments for the TCS unit. Smartest thing I could think of would be to custom make a fitting for the unit on an aftermarket plenum. As you understand to simply remove the TCS unit for an automatic car would also mean Id hafto change to a stand alone ECU which would mean aftermarket shift kit... your already looking at 4g plus for the sake of simply installing a front facing plenum. Let us know Dahtone when you have a product from your research and as im happy to try it out.

who has done theis and what u doabout the error light?

no tps pluged in?

Buit a greddy one fits fine on a NEO, just have to use a non neo throttle body. remove the TCS mechanism from the r34 throttle boby and leave ot plugged into the loom so the ecu thinks it is still there.

i think most poeple who get aftermarket plenums are already in the 300kw+ range. TCS isnt gonna do much for you. my mate just got it removed alltogether

and it cleans up alot of the ugly shit wires in the engine bay aswell.

Im fine with removing the TCS, problem is it just cant BE removed on an auto. You need well over 3g of mods just to remove that TCS.

I assume it would run on some kind of ground signal and would measure the amount of current sent through when its open/closed 50% 80% blah blah so why dont you just make a sender which matches the signal when its fully opened.

Just a guess.

    • 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).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • 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?
