Plumbing the Trust Plenum

[Steve]

Hi all,

I have my car in at the moment getting a new plenum fitted.

The guys doing it doubt that it will be possible to plumb the plenum up to the cooler without either modifying the window washer bottle or replacing it with a custom one.

Anybody out there got photos of the trust plenum fitted to an R33, or have fitted one without having to mod the washer bottle?

Alternately, anybody have any hints on modding the washer bottle so it doesnt look like a back yard job?

Cheers

Steve

Try the JMS website mate. Their R33 has a Trust PLenum.

Thanks Dean, unfortuneately they have removed their washer bottle and only seem to have a catch can - which I think is going to be the only way, just hoping someone else out there that has fitted a washer bottle? Must be someone.

Steve,

On mine, they ripped the pump off the standard washer bottle and fabricated an aluminum one that is about half the size and put it back in the corner. This allows the cooler pipes to come up and get to the TB & plenum.

Hmm - it's a lot of trouble and hassle though...

Maybe just sell me your Trust plenum - that will solve the problem !! :)

Cheers,

Thanks warrick, I will have to look into that one.

B-man, perhaps you could just swap me for the stock washer bottle, much cheaper on postage that way:p

Hi Ronin,

Sorry I dont know what the part is, my car is a series 1

[EnricoPalazzo]

I got trust plenum and lost washer bottle. Perhaps you could even go to wreckers or something and look for a smaller one off a diff car or even use a radiator overflow bottle, think it would fit?

Dont know if this helps, I just got a replacement water washer bottle with my Trust FMIC kit, they probably assume that your going to replace the plenum at some stage with the new kit. Anyhow its about half the size of the factory one and is actually a suzuki spare part. Let me know if you want the part number/pics of the bottle?

[Ronin 09]

shane, that'd be awesome if you could post a pic and part number mate

Hope this helps...

Suzuki Genuine Part

Part No. 38831-84000

It actually has 'DENSO' printed on the bottle too.

Awesome stuff Shane, you dont want to sell it do you? A part number would be good too.

thanks heaps

I'm installing the kit this weekend, and am unsure whether it will be needed yet.

So if I dont use it this weekend and you can wait till next week, then its yours for the price of postage

[Ronin 09]

steve, if you get one from a suzuki dealer, let me know how much it is and vice versa i'll let you know. I won't get a chance to ring them until wednesday.

[Ronin 09]

Steve, i'll fight you for it

Please yes, if you dont need it, please just pm me and I will send my details. Probably easiest for you if you just COD it down, or I can transfer the money to your bank account.

Thanks heaps

Ronin 09, I will do some investigating, as I imagine it will be a pretty long trip to fight over a washer bottle;)
