As long as there is plenty of turbo flow and everything else to back it up, more than happy to consider it. If you like, pm me the details of the engine mod's and we can go from there.

I want to get results at different boost levels to see the overall impact. I also have an egt kit I would like to install to get even more data to back things up one way or another.

Lol funny you should mention that, I just pulled one apart an hour ago. First time I noticed them too. I figured much the same; an attempt to direct air towards the runners rather then letting it all gush straight to number 6. I would have thought they would need to be abit longer (protrude in more) to have enough of a difference.

exactly the reason why they have done it. there are some cad simulation programs results which show this would be beneficial.

as for all the air being directed to no6....this is not necessarily true considering cylinders fire at different times and the air is used only when valves are open. you will find that the rear cylinders, 5 & 6, of the gtr plenum actually flows less than the 1 & 2.

Oh good. The reason why i asked is becasue sometimes people just ask it because they think its fancy and have read it somewhere else....and I also wanted to see who could do it for me so I could compare it to flowbench figures...unfortunately your in QLD.

So that would answer your questions, no I don't but would like to find somene local who could do it for me and show me how its done...so if there is anyone out there who can, please pm me.

Interesting about the flow. I thought the major belief was that 5 and 6 flowed abit more (or atleast received air first and more of it) and so always ran a fraction leaner as a result, hence why alot of tuning shops richen 6 up by 1.5% and 5 by 1% or something like that.

Funnily enough I thought all forward facing plenums were susceptible to that problem by that same reasoning.

Did you test this by egts on each exhaust runner with matched injectors? or some kind of flow test on the manifold itself?

that is far from the truth!!!! another one of those internet created misconceptions....and there are plenty more out there

this was tested on a flow bench....EGT testing is coming with the test car

as for rb20 info, watch this space when i get some time after the rb25 testing

i actually need someone to draw them up for me to do the cfd

from reports cfd results are actually very similar to flow test results when the same environment is used, meaning real world vs what is simulated

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
