Seriously. , by writing what I did I'm trying to help you.

It's up to you .

Look at the result of your previous threads and consider my advice along with others.

Man just asking a simple question about a car lol.. not rocket science..

the standard RB26 plenum is pretty damn good.

maybe get it powder coated if you like the look of new stuff under the bonnet.

But really a new plenum won't make a bee's dick's worth of difference to anything except your wallet

C'mon guys, sometimes it's easier to just either ignore the question and move on or just post a quick reply (or link to previously discussed topic) and again, move on! Bullying people over stupidity is still bullying!

My view- looks good, supposedly helps leaning out of cyl 6, apparently gives minimal performance gains.

Best option? Buy a cheap Freddy off Ebay and put a sticker on it, win!

Haha ok thanks.. it's seems that the general consensus is it makes no real difference and that money would be better off spent on something else..

The main purpose of the Greddy plenum is to help equalize cylinder flow, the stocky is known to push too much air towards cyl 5 and 6 causing them to run leaner than the other 4.

There is no power to be gained running one, stocky is good for high power builds.

Key point is to run the highest flowing injectors towards the rear to aid the lean issue.

So many people running the stock intake manifold to over 450Kw its not funny.

You suck at Google.

This was at the top first search and all I did was type greddy plenum rb26.

Did you read that thread? Its the same old "wives group" shouting the usual and kind of lacking in actual results.

I am not saying they are an upgrade that people should rush out and do...but I have never read a credible back to back like i have with the Nismo plenum and Hypertune plenum.

I am curious and open to it because a mate that I respect who has owned more high HP Skylines than I will ever drive likes running them. And yes the std plenums make good power, but the Greddy item will give different results, different how is the question for me and as above curious....would be nice to read actual results from a semi sensible practical test.

    • Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.
    • We replaced the connector just because we could and it was still there, once we swapped the injectors around it stopped. The injectors were something I had thoughts of replacing even before I first started the engine and in hindsight I should have 
    • Not too sure just yet, want to have a go at doing what I can myself, but to start with want someone to cast their eye over it tell me what needs doing to get it running and back on the road, so anyone with great overall knowledge would be ideal.
    • I personally would go with cutting out the rubber. Then deal with getting sleeve off separately. Rubber can be painful to cut, it loves to jam up cutting tools. I normally have success with drill bits, deburr bits, angle grinders, jigsaw, reciprocating saw, and never forget... fire. Obviously different tools won't work in all locations you're trying to work with, and you need to be comfortable with each. You personally may be happy slowly slicing it out with a razor blade, if you are, go for it with one too! Feel free to wait for others to weigh in also on their thoughts.
    • So ... I got everything disconnected and started dropping the frame. Three of the four mounts started to come down but the fourth one (the one with the nut that gave me all the trouble) won't budge. The inner metal sleeve stays up tight against the chassis rail although the outer part of the mount drops a bit (and can be levered quite a lot more) but it's just stretching the rubber bushing. So I reckon there's some serious corrosion inside the inner sleeve and holding it tight to the lug at the top of the bolt. Tried everything I can think of so far: penetrating oil, whacking the top of the sleeve to vibrate it and wedge a screwdriver blade in there. I also tried to turn the inner sleeve a bit by hitting it with a chisel at the bottom. It's stuck solid. What do you think about cutting the rubber with a blade so I can drop the subframe around it anyway. Then worry about getting the inner sleeve off after? Will that work? Is it gonna give me even more problems?
