Hey guys, i was wondering if its possible to put a aftermarket intake manifold/plenum or a rb26 plenum on the rb25de non turbo, reason i want to do this is because i want to eliminate the cross over piping on the stock plenum, which goes over the motor and gets freakin hot, defeating the purpose of a CAI. If it is possible, will i need to do make any modifications to the ecu, air sensors, throttle body(can i use the stock throttle body) etc..?

Cheers guys

as above, don't bother.

also don't confuse a hot pipe with hot air. ever done that thing where you pass your hand quickly over a flame without getting burnt? the same principle applies to intake air. at wide open throttle the air is moving at high speed so it isn't affected by intake temps much at all. even at low throttle it isn't affected by much

Just saw this post i made few months back, i actually cant believe i asked this question.

I think everyone's done this, I once started a thread regarding gilmear drives for an rb25 (facepalm)

Everyone just needs to remember the search button is your friend,95% of stuff has been asked already.....

And still an extractor/exhaust NA question pops up every 2 weeks :dry:

Haha thats true mate, yea i actually found a few searches regarding this very question, still pretty stupid question. Not even a turbo haha.

And yea i see alot of those questions as well, i actually had a canon tip on my car when i first got my Ps in 2010, removed it and bolted on the factory muffler 3 months later when i actually understood more about cars. All i did by chucking on a canon was eliminate back pressure, and make it droney as fk. Lost so much torque, extractors and exhausts are next to useless on non turbo rb25s, people need to understand that. Ive actually beaten a few skylines with full custom exhausts, even r34s, its just rubbish, no point. Just loses back pressure and makes noise.

At the end of the day, so glad my knowledge of cars has improve by x10. =p Sucha stupid post haha.

2 of the big ones, and by tonight

A couple of backpressures would pull a premium a week before racewars...

Do you think we can overnight the parts from Japan?

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
