Rb25 Greddy Copy Inlet

[r33skyhigh]

hey guys ive installed my intake plenum but have no idea how to install the top hose outlet on the plenum. cant weld it because of the different types of material. is there a special glue of some sort that you use to put it in. or what have you used?

thanks

are you talking about the bleed nipple?

I had a kit that came with my plenum. Included all the bolts, fittings etc. It had the fitting for the radiator hose. Now i got mine off someone else but he bought it from autobarn and they sold him the kit as well.... So maybe give autobarn a go

Its basically just a press fitting that will just tap in, seal it with some loctite or similar when you put it in

Im betting autobarn will have it it or will be able to get it in for you. If not I think (but not 100% sure) that the genuine Greedy plenums are the same so might be able to get the fitting through nengun or something in the option parts?

EDIT: Just checked nengun and greenline, doesnt look like you can get the fitting for the Greedy plenums, Try autobarn

should be alright, might have to remove the throttle body at the worst. Using a sealing compound when you knock it in for a good seal

[ClutchBurndout-:(]

if u tap it in, shavings WILL go inside the plenum fyi. take it off the car before tapping.

[jeffworld2]

smear it with liquid gasket and shove it in, hit it with a bit of wood for it to squish in.

I doubt any shavings will come off as your not shaving anything. If they do come off its in your water not your oil which is no biggie.

[ClutchBurndout-:(]

oh, you said "tapping" which is tapping a new thread, when you do this, quite a bit of shavings come out.

but i can see in the pic, just put a rag in the hole and do ur busness, pull the rag out, should catch anything that fell in ???

it is press fit..... it will not scrape metal off the plenum

I have done this, and it was fine
