Currently installing a front facing intake manifold on a rb26dett r33 gtr

the air chamber is being deleted, and the AACV attaches directly to the intake manifold.

where would i plumb the AACV to? 

Please excuse the lack of knowledge- I just want clarify before moving forward.

car is on haltech 2500 elite ecu.

 

any advice would be greatly appreciated

Since you're running an Elite 2500, you'll be silly not to throw all that AAVC, IACV junk into the trash and install a Bosch DBW throttle body.

You'll have superb idle control, flat shift capabilities, throttle blips, etc.

Awesome thanks for clarifying that for me!

DBW is something I have not looked into much as of yet, but wouldn’t be apposed to converting.

aside from the throttle body it’s self, what else is needed to convert? 
possibly shed some light or a link?

You you need to do:

  • delete pedal
  • delete throttle body
  • delete IACV
  • delete AACV (not sure RB26 use both but in the bin)
  • install Bosch DBW
  • install either 350Z or V35 Skyline (semi bolt on) or just get a Bosch pedal and make brackets
  • wire up AVI 2 to 5 to the pedal & TB, wire up DBW 1 & 2 to the TB
  • calibrate 
  • start engine

If you're really bored, have a read of my build thread :)

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
