SmItleR, Paragon... you didn't answer his question.

The Greddy (Goo-red-ee :P) intake plenum is a fairly popular conversion in Japan. I wouldn't say that *everyone* considers it, for example, a 400ps ECR33 has the Greddy plenum, yet a 450ps HCR32 doesn't (stock intake)... go figure.

I guess it boils down to what the person wants to do with the car. The ECR33 has a better chance of 550+hp with the RB25DET, therefore you're more likely to see the Greddy plenum on RB25DET equiped cars. Well, lets just say 50% of the medium-hard tuned RB25DETs have the Greddy plenum (or similar), and less than that for the RB20DET in Japan. Going out on a limb there, but you get the idea...

They do change these items but I'd say it would be the last thing to change if they do...plus they cost a fair bit. One would go for a larger throttle before doing the plenums.

Hell the Evo 4G63 plenums is great, demo cars are pushing out 600ps with them. We only touch the exhaust manifold side.

Of the benefits available when fitting the Greddy unit to an RB25, additional power isnt really one of them.

On the more heavily modified cars particularly, as Rezz said they are common but I believe this is more for the fact they greatly simplify the intercooler pipework, removing the notorious U-bend and requiring a much shorter pipe between the cooler and the intake plenum itself

thanks heaps guys. yea was looking for info as, with cams for the rb25 people have pick up on the common jap commbo so i am looking to do the same but with the greddy plenum so to speak. Its a part that doesnt gain on the dyno but could make a quicker car buy response and heat soak just interested to see if its popular or worth while on the jap scene.

What i can gather is it is but the mod takes place toward the end.

im realy aiming for 380rwhp but am coming across alot of small problems including a vacum leek that cant be found and looks like the plenum will come off and new gaskets and hoses installed. Loking at the price of these plenums they seem to have droped and i could get one for a 1000 or just under, so now would be the time but ive still got stock cams and exhaust manifold which seem to be done befor a plenum upgrade.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
