nah man i want greddy

price is not a problem!

nuthin but jap parts are making there way into my car!

whered u get urs from?

xspeed?

is that ur skyline on their page?

talking bout complicated intercooler piping and how the greddy plenum makes the piping easier?

adrian :P

Yes, that is my car on there website. Xspeed are pretty cool guys, and the pipe work that Andre does looks awesome. It is much simpler pipework, and gives alot more torque. You will need to get a larger throttle body if you want to make proper use of the plenum, but I can get one of those for you.

See'ya:burnout:

how much is the larger throttle body?

yeah the guys at xspeed are real cool

i trust them 100% very friendly as well!

they have to order the plenum in hey?

oh well looks like i be saving up for a few months

wanna get plenum,fmic and the larger throttle body as u were saying!

thats next on my to do list!

adrian :P

Include the price of the pipework, that is very important to the overall performance. Just tell them you want similar to mine.

Throttle body is about 80mm, which is much larger than the 55mm stocker. No point having a large plenum with a restriction right infront of it.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
