After thinking about moding my Plenum to the end of the plenum, i found out it was abit hard to do on a r32/RB20DET plenum as the ends/diameter to make a hole to fit the throttle body aint that big compaired to a rb25det one which can & has been done.

You want the WHOLE piping in silicon? or just joints?

why not just do it in alloy or something?

It is not very hard to relocate the throttle body on the 32's, i was going to do it on mine and got a second plenum which i cut up and was going to weld the pipe to but i decided against it. The air has to enter and turn hard left to reach the first cylinder, this means there will be big differnces in the air recieved at each runner. You realy need to make a complete new plenum if you want short pipes and i was going to do this but it got all to hard.

However if you want a 32 plenum with the throttle body moved i will sell you the one i modifies for a good price.

hey i was wondering...how much are the plenums that go straight to the front of the engine instead of going across the top?

how much, where from, and is it worth it? im wanting a cooler soon, so i was thinking of changing the plenum first...if it was worth the trouble?

do people sell them second hand, if so, how much and again, where from...here?

      Ball bearing turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      I didn't think about how a circle works before, dumb.  Before, I had .9mm restrictor bolts but I can't use these cause they were shorter aluminium bolts that just tear off their threads when tightening since the OEM lines are thicker than the shitty braided one that was installed previously. Now I use longer 1mm stainless steel restrictor bolts. I think the difference will not affect the health of the turbos, but I guess I'll have to drill out the main feed bolt as I agree multiple restrictions sound dodgy. The one that was installed with the braided line was just too short, but completely without a restrictive hole.

      Tomei gasket

      By SKYMAGGOT · Posted

      After cleaning up a rusty cooling system in a 33 gtst that's been sitting for years it seems to have cleaned out the head gasket too haha. It seems the Tomei metal gasket works without machining surfaces? Or put oem? Also should put an oil restrictor while the head is off? Thanks

      Thanks, I definitely saw the more expensive options from Crank and driveshaft shop. Thank you for the D-max option.  Still hopeful someone has an OEM out of the box option I found that the 300zx NA Left drive shaft is a good match for the Right on the R33. https://www.gsplatinamerica.com/product/ncv53040 Just need to find Left CV for the R33, I cannot find any <=22" axles.
