JD Custom made it on calaisturbo.com.au

he designed it

bellmouths inside

hav been proven that they pick up a fair bit more power n torque

his 1st ones he made leaned out in 5 and 6 as it was a square back, this is a taper back and it works like a charm!!

yeah i know these plenums work, many guys on calais turbo.com.au have had great sucess with them, they are larger and eliminate the curved runners, increasing flow efficiency

I don't know if these things get much more outright power, but they do help eliminate a fair bit of heatsoak that most standard intakes on RB20/25's suffer from. That might be enough to give you a little bit more power and reduce leaning out slightly, but I find the better purpose of these plenums is to improve throttle response. I have a home-made, unscientific one and I don't suffer from any leaning out. I would get a more professional one if I was racing it or had more money, but for mild mods I don't think anyone is going to have any problems with this plenum.

If you're considering buying it, do it for the better throttle response, which is why I did it and I don't regret it at all.

    • Welcome back mate ,I also joined in the early 2000's , since then I have been in and out a few times depending if I had a skyline in the garage.  I have the another one now , so signed up and back with the SAU team.
    • I used "different strokes for different folks" quite pointedly as honestly, there is no wrong when it comes to choosing what you like.  I always day dreamed about flappy paddles with fast shifts in a sporty RWD Turbo and to me the sound and feel of it cutting through gears in a steady stream is exciting, engaging, and keeps the car better balanced - I *also* like h-patterns, but I find them more engaging and fun in a nice hoonable peaky NA thing.  Type-R Integra/old school NA rotary, things that are raw and need all the rpm where picking the gear and getting it sky high is part of the engagement of the whole thing despite the fact that they probably need closer ratios and faster shifts even more than a 3l turbo thing haha  
    • If I wasn't allowed or really had the desire to visit China it would probably fit in my carry on, but I have no desire, Japan would be nice during Cherry Blossom time though I might need to chat to Jackie about that, that should actually be an easy conversation though as she is currently talking about another cruise, cruise ship to Japan, a week in Japan to see the sights, then cruise home I may even be able to find those OEM NC Recaro seats over there that I cannot find here 馃
    • What do you mean?  In between the two I shared?  They're the same boost   This will be insane.   A mate has a GTSt with a 9:1 RB30/25 with Tomei 256 cams and a Borg S362SX-E that is already a beast from the basement but has a stock 5 speed and will probably get a ZF8 one day.  After the G35 900 RB26 setup I'd be lying if the topic of "Wtf would a divided G35 be like on this thing?" idea hadn't come up - you'd definitely want a wide boost control range setup with it, as even with the less responsive and potent S361 we're having to ramp boost in from very low levels in the early gears.
    • ZF8 is faster, wider ratio spread, better in every way. I do not dispute this. But I have brain damage and I want the feeling of shifting gears. To me the extra work is fun, but I daily an automatic and in the US like 90+% of cars are automatic so a manual transmission is an "exotic" experience. If I want an automatic I've driven an F80 M3 with DCT more than a few times and it's incredibly capable but it's emotionally vacant to me.
