Hi all

In the middle of assembling a dual feel plazmaman fuel rail with 6AN fittings to a standard RB25DET lower manifold and the centre 90 deg. -6 fitting is fouling up against the manifold. Theres no issues when i fit the injectors and the spacers are all at equal heights (they didnt machine the slots on the mounting tabs big enough either but thats a separate issue) so i was just wondering how others have gotten around this? Yea, i could just plug up the centre port and run it as a single feed rail but was pretty keen on the dual setup.

How much is it fouling? If it's only a small clearance you need, then you can remove some material from the contact spot of the manifold.

Or, you could make some other sort of fitting there with the appropriate thread and a short length of stainless tube to take the AN fitting away from the contact spot. Welded together, of course.

I did think about that but just didnt know how much i could hog out before it affected the integrity of that water jacket it sits above of. It does foul a fair bit...but you know what, you just gave me an idea. The standard -6 fitting has a decent radius in the elbow so i think if used a -6 male to female swivel adapter instead that should solve my problem :) 

Thanks mate!

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
