I purchased a item on eBay to customise a drag wing but didn't work out as I planned.

Damn eBay cwap... I haven't viewed it in person just yet as I'm out interstate working.

Looks like it's just the clear coming off.

I've got the head drain that's going back to sump, i had the oil catch can next to the fuse box but looks like we'll need to customise another one as the hypertune plenum extended more then we anticipated, also mite be running another catch can on the other side, all Lines are plumb back into sump.

Is the Hypertune intake plenum right??? It seems to poke waaaaaay too far away from the engine. The angles from the cooler look like they're going to be all out of whack.

Otherwise looks awesome!

What trigger setup are you using?

V2 hypertune plenum is all bolted on, it did take me by surprise how far it was located.

But we'll cut a hole in the panel, pic below... Piping will be all good just some panel work.

Trigger system is up in the air, we may go custom like in ibomu gtr or modify my standard item

For the $$ a Hypertune costs I'd be wanting it to be a straight bolt on affair and some sort of sexual favours to boot!

Take a look at the Hi Octane trigger setup, I just got one and looks good. Crank pickup works off a small trigger disc that mounts to the back of the timing belt gear. it's quite neat-

Damn nice build!

Thanks for the info on the Hypertune. IT IS A MONSTER. Mine ships out tomorrow!

Didn't expect it to protrude THAT far over! Yet another thing to add to the relocate/fabricate list.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
