does anybody know what intake i can put on my rb25 neo so that it sits on the left of the engine and not crossing over the top.

like a rb26 or sr20 style.

some thing that will bolt straight on and not involve to much fiddling around, (obviously have to modify intercooler piping and throttle body/cable etc)

cheers for any help

not 100% on if a plazzy will fit a neo. But if they do make them for the neo, a plazzy would be my choice.

All you have to do is take off the top half of your stock intake manifold, and bolt up the plazzy. Alot easier than a GReddy style plenum.

Plazmaman start at around $800-900 i think for the raw version.

depends on the one chosen.

you'd pretty much need to budget 1-1.2k if DIY or 1.5-1.7k if you are paying someone for gasket and replacing a few hoses too (might as well while you are there).

Not the cheapest exercise!

is it hard to move the throttle body, will i need a new cable or is the stock one long enough,

If you go the plazzy, no. Stock is fine, they send you out a bracket for it.

If you get one, specify that your using the stock t/v so you dont need to get an adapter or a larget t/b

I've got a Plazmaman in my 34 and it's great. But make no mistake it is a bitch to fit up, the bolts are just really hard to get to as it doesn't end up leaving you a great deal of room to work around.

Oh and you will also have to move your fuse box out of the way as it will foul the Throttle Body.

All the piping work for mine was completed by Pro Race and they changed the BOV position so I'm not too sure how much work will have to be done to plumb it back in. Some other little things include extending the wiring for the TPS because obviously the TB is in a completely different position and also fitting up the Idle Control piping.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
