What's your dirt bike?

I've got a Jim berry Full monty clutch in mine, it's great, never slips, doesn't make any noise and is really driveable. Never stall it :D

I have a nice customized plenum, and Andrew at Pro auto said that cars with almost identical mods without the plenum and TB(Q45) typically made less power, and he said it definatly improved flow. mine has a 35r with a .82r

I also run a gizzmo thermal gasket, to stop heat transfer from the head to the plenum, and the plenum stays quite cool.

so there are gains to be had, I did it as a sort a package, highmount mani, 35r, plenum, TB etc.

shorter piping is always a bonus too. I think I reduced it by a metre all up.

and it looks mint =D

I wouldn't be tempted by a cheapo job tho, I'm not a chinese hater but its one thing you dont want to fail. pain to get on and off too. I still had to make a throttle cable bracket and also Mod the water temp senor ports as when the plenum was built it was dummied up on a head with no VCT sensor!, 10 hours of fab later lol. was worth it in the end tho.

I dont doubt that for minute with your set up Jack but with a stock 25 neo a FFP as a "first" mod is a waste of money IMO especially if all its for is cosmetics.

yep I agree, took me a few years to get around to it. Ecu, turbo & injectors etc and wayyyyyyy more important that a FFP.

datsuns dont really wake up till you've got a reasonable turbo and supporting gear on there to complete the dish.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
