Hey guys

Got a rb25 with a copy greddy manifold

Just seeing where people run there water lines to that use to go to the back of the stock manifold ?

Can I make up a pipe to go in top rad hose and then weld a fitting on that for the water ? Pics would be great to cheers

Pics don't work but should help.

What's your setup?

I ask because I haven't seen a mild setup benefit from this plenum. In that thread one guy made 4 kw more at the expense of losing midrange.

Personally I would look at the heap of cars making 300 plus rwkw with stock inlet and save the hassle of fitting the plenum.

Is that coolant return? Is it supposed to go in before thermostat or after? I cant remember

This is mine, but its a bit extravagant for your every day setup. The HKS kit I had before had a braided line that ran around the back with all the fittings to join to the rubber hose under the manifold:

It all depends what you are keeping and getting rif of as to how you do it ive kept the standard air bleed on my set up as ive tried to go the stock look, I ran a T piece at the rear and brought my turbo water feed around and over the top of the engine as it gave me better angles ect with the braided lines ive used but if your getting rid of the bleed from the stock manifold you only need to come out of the block and run it over to the turbo this makes life easier but be carefull to get all the air from the block.

Not sure how to post pics but if you need help pm me ya number and ill text pics or email directif you want more detail ect, Personaly having installed one of these manifolds (i got it new for $149) i dont think there worth the effort they are by no means bolt on if you want a nice neat job ive wasted hours redoing wiring and stuff that you just dont think of untill you start unbolting crap.

Cheers,

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
