This is a brand new RB26 intake plenum produced by the infamous RIPS. These are iconic pieces of work, and power some of the highest RB engines ever built. It is polished, and includes a custom anodized purple throttle body, which makes it one of a kind. These are quite rare to see, and are very costly to get, for good reason. The purple anodizing was intended, and succeeded in being a match to the HKS purple. Please contact me with any questions, thank you. Dont hesitate to make reasonable offers


$1500 USD


Plenum includes purple throttle body....

This is a one kind custom RB26 fuel rail produced by RIPS. It is numbered 001, making it the first one available, and is anodized purple to match the throttle body. Rob designed and machined this piece from start to finish, and it was truly an honor be involved in the process. A unique feature of this rail, is the center return fitting is on the underside of the rail, as opposed to sticking out of the top. This allows you to tuck away your return line for a nice clean look. This truly is one of a kind, and heart breaking to part with.


$325

Hey mate, this, from what i can see, is the second time you have posted the exact same thing.

I asked a few questions on the last post about these items and never received a reply.

What i asked was the following questions:

Are you located in the US, and are these items as well?
What size is the throttle body?
What size diameter injector will the rail fit, 11 or 14mm?
What size fittings will the rail need to fit fuel lines, pressure reg etc?
Also what is the price of shipping to Australia?
Why are you selling them without the pleasure of getting to use them, considering they are such works of art?
Surely you can answer these.

I am very sorry for not responding, I must not have "subscribed" to the thread, and was not getting notifications. I will gladly answer your questions, and if anyone else is interested please message me.

-The parts are located in the US

-The throttle body is 100mm and anodized purple along with the rail

-The rail is for 11mm injectors

-The rail fittings are M20x1.5, and center return is pipe thread(included)

-Message me with address for shipping quote

-It is heartbreaking to let this stuff go, as they are one of a kind, and truly are art, but my project totally changed direction. Rob at RIPS truly is the king of RB''s, and just getting this stuff stateside was an honor.

Please contact me by private message

No worries mate. I appreciate the information.

They look like amazing pieces of engineering.

Its just a shame that the aussie dollar has dropped significantly compared to when you first posted.

Would have been a done deal in my books. In hindsight I should have pm'd, ah well.

If it comes back up and these are still here, you'll probably get a msg from me.

Good luck with the sale.

Beautiful gear.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
