I need to know what is required. Like, certain electronic connectors, physical connectors, and any vacuum lines.


I managed to get a BARE RB20 ECCS head for free for my NICS engine so I thought I would just swap it and it also allowed me to replace the head studs with ARP head studs.

Maybe I should rephrase my question as I am now seeing how confusing it is. I currently have the ECCS head on the NICS Block but this shouldn't matter. SPECIFICALLY WHAT I NEED is how to hook up the (ECCS) intake manifold to the (ECCS) head I am also using an EBAY front facing plenum.

I know jack about the red top but the intake was quite different & doesn't work, or doesn't work easily, I know where there's a good condition red top out of a z31 in NZ

thats not what im asking. Lets completely forget that I'm asking about the NICS and ECCS differences. I'm asking how can I hook up my bare ECCS RB20 Silvertop intake manifold to my RB20 ECCS Silvertop head. I'm doing more research and it looks like I'm needing an IACV valve, the underside coolant passages, I need to know about connectors and which ones I need.

    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 😢
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
    • yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice). 
    • nice to see a proper resto, instead of the usual half arsed attempts where the owners wont even replace crappy floor mats
    • Aw man, I was in Belgium earlier this month in Brussels and Bruges. Would've been awesome to see a Skyline all the way over there! I did load up on Tintin merch though  Welcome!
