PPl,

I've have to replace my plenum on my RB 25/30 (turbo) combo, as the last owner made his own dodgy home made plenum.

My actual question is that when you purchase say a Greddy/Trust plenum or even a custom one from say Micks Metalcraft as an example do these actually bolt straight to the side of the head or do they just bolt to runners? The one I have at the moment is welded to standard runners.

If it is only plenum how much am I looking at to get runners and anything else that is necessary for the transition?

Also I am looking the Greddy one, but I have an XF throttle body, can it be adapted with out much hassle as I don't want to change it as it had the TPS set up on it.

Hope this makes sense and I appreciate all coments.

DP

a friend of myn has done some research into it, and came up with use the stock runners with a front facing plenum works best rather then either bolting plenum to head or new runners... there are many companies who build plenums over here

mood motorsport is prolly the best one i have seen...

butmost workshops will either make one, or know who can..

trust plenum bolts directly to the head and if new comes with bolts and clamps, hoses needed to fit everything to it (no gasket though) - you will need to mod the water line for your turbo though.

the runners on the trust plenum are larger in diameter and shorter than the stock runners. You can get an adaptor for the stock TB additional to the plenum, or source a Q45 TB (larger than XF) which will bolt straight up (TPS is compatible, being a nissan). I dont think the Japs are big on ford XF throttle bodies, so if you wanted to fit it, you may have to get a custom adaptor made.

      SAUNSW - World Time Attack Challenge - 5 & 6 September

      By Keeper · Posted

      Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!

If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit.

Thanks guys and hope to see you there!

      Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
