RB20 Plenumn's?


Recommended Posts

I'm after an aftermarket plenumn for my Rb20det. I've had a search and came up with nothing. Seems like either a custom made one, or a "cut n` shut" style job on my stock iteam.

Does any one know of any bolt on ones (like the GReddy ones for rb25)?

Cheers, Josh.

Rips make a custom front facing plenum for whatever engine you have. Keeps all factory sensors unlike the Sub Zero, or Greddy plenum.

His email is [email protected] and his name is Rob. The pic shows the Rb20det version. You get it in a kit form, in the colour of your choice for $1500NZ (Roughly $1350 AUD) Comes with modified throttle body, throttle cable, water pipe kit, all fittings for brake booster, map sensor, boost guage etc....

Great buy in my mind.....thats why im getting one :rofl:

Josh, i'll PM you the email address of a workshop who has an awesome rb20 plenum that weld onto your stock bottom runners. Excellent design and only costs $600 or so. Definately my choice once i get the $$.

GTR plenums don't work on the RB20DET.

The factory plenum gives not only more low down torque, but better top end as well.

Nissan got that part correct.

There was an articles in Zoom magazine a number of months back, where they couldnt figure out why the RB20 went like a dog, as it turns out they removed the modified RB26 plenum put on the the factory RB20 plenum and power and torque went up everywhere in the rpm band.

I could scan the article if you want.

But yeah, get a whole RB26DETT if you want to go down that route.

greddy rb20 and the 25 are the same im 99% sure

Good thing you werent 100% sure as they dont fit:(

Greddy only make manifolds for the RB25 adn RB26, neither of which fit the RB20. Workshop X in NZ also do nice looking plenums....whether any work better then the std one i dont know

this is the thing guys, i don't want to spend all this money on a RB20DET if for the same kind of money it would cost to tune a RB20DET i could get a whole RB26DETT and basicly run the thing near standard

I'm still looking into it, and if you do have the time to scan that, that would be good :(

    • Agreed with the rest. Also at least based on my own research, there are no readily available stock or close-to-stock RB20Neo maps that you could download and use as a base were you to buy a complete standalone ECU, and the regular 20DET maps don't really work well so you'd need to take it to a tuner if you have no experience. I installed an AEM V2 on my 20Neo+T and had lots of headaches until I got it to run and idle properly but I've yet to remap it fully. You have to start building up your timing and fuel maps entirely from the ground up; even the ones for a 25 didn't work at all.
    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
