$600 would be about right if you were getting in/ex cam gears, and one cam. I would have thought $600 is sexcellent if you're getting both cams!

On Nengun at the moment you can get a Trust plenum for around $920, seeing as the yen is so shite against the dollar at the moment. So that's $920 plus shipping plus a throttle body, which I have no idea on cost.

on ozperformance you can get a JD? custom plenum for 650, then prb find a xf,xe throttle body for 50+, thats what i was looking at doing when upgrading.

as for cams not sure on performance gains when going for bang for ya buck.

still most of the time it can be worth paying that little extra it get proven parts

$1300 is ok (even better if it come with throttlebody) UPI have them for 1400.

I think for the quality and 'bot on' ease of installation, you cant really go past it. I have yet to see an 'australian made' plenum for under $2000 that i would put on my car.

greenline have Trust Surge Tank (intake plenum) for Aus$986.276 plus post and import duties. http://www.greenline.jp

dude,you just have to be carefull about the lift and duration of the cams. They may not fit without some head modification. I 'think' (please dont quote me) that anythin over 9.0 lift will need re-shimming.

Its a great price if you get cams and gears as well.

2 cams for $600 new? That is cheaper than HKS sell them for direct.

$1300 for greddy plenum and adaptor is also a very good price. I have seen them for up to 2K.

Do not buy aust made, but a jap one that comes with all the bits and bolts up. Its a proven product with thousands of $ in R&D. I went aust made and just ended up having to buy another (greddy) one - so I wasted the cost of the plenum plus the added expense of fitting (and finding all the extra bits) and pipework. As mentioned, you will not find a plenum of the quality and fit in aust for anywhere near as cheap as the trust one.

Oh, and if there is anyone out there who wants a hills plenum and ford throttle body (with adaptor for TPS), pm me:)

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
