I wouldn't leave the plenum section on and try and install the Nipples, You wouldn't risk drilling the holes when its on! Imagine the shavings in there :D

You are gonna have to remove the plenum section 1000% if you go ahead with it...

I have had two D-Jetro computers installed and thats the way they have been done :bunny:

like tony said you should 100% NOT drill the 3rd and 4th runner while still fitted to the car. There is no way you can drill and tap those two holes without getting swarf in the engine.

I have previously been a big fan of doing it properly and installing the 2 nipples in runners 3 and 4 post throttle body as apexi reccomend. some people do the dodge and use one of the post throttle body vacuum lines coming off the little vacuum box and just tee it into 2 feeds for the 2 map sensors. I had previously seen people have problems with that, but lately 1 or 2 have seemed to still work quite well doing it that way.

personally I'd rather do it properly, the downside of course is it's a pretty hefty labour bill to remove and replace throttle bodys etc just to drill and tap 2 holes for the nipples. talk to the bloke tuning it and see what he wants.

check the documentation or ask their local support

there are known compatibility issues with individual throttle bodies and map sensor based ECU's

i believe thats why apexi make you install it in the exact spot on the plenum and not just anyold where

thanks for the replys guys

what if i got a haltech e11v2, where would i tap into? im pretty sure they only have one map sensor? (correct me if im wrong?

thanks

the haltech will work fine off the vacuum balance rail (factory boost gauge port @ the back)

    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
