  1. Sorry if I'm being a bit thick, I assumed that as I paid through PayPal that Stichy would have the address details already (just like when you sell something on ebay and receive payment).

     

    normaly yes, but because the funds were send as a gift to avoid the charges. there are no address

    did you get my pm about the final payment?

     

    Yes, I paid it to you on Sunday. Have you not received my payment?

  2. I can't see why these wouldn't come up with the same maybe better dyno results, my spacer is

    bigger, and the plenum runs alot cooler than the stock metal one

     

    Yeah I have to agree with that, can't see any reason why it wouldn't give at least the same sort of gains as a regular spacer.

     

    I assume there wouldn't be any issue using it with the MREV2 lower collector would there? I have an MY06 engine so I'd need to use that in conjunction with the carbon plenum.

  3. This is all looking rather excellent! I'm really looking forward to seeing some dyno results for this. Might have to seriously cosider one of these if it shows some comparable gains with a traditional spacer. Well done for coming up with something genuinely different and unique :thumbs:

  4. Again, I dont want to put a damper on this as it looks great ( I cant see how different it would be for looks if you had your plenum wrapped though... there seems to be no apparent reason to buy one apart from looks as you would need some serious testing to show performance gains, but am interested in if there are any when its on)

     

    Surely the gains would be the same as a standard plenum with a spacer wouldn't they?

  5. Plenty of companies around specialising in refurbing alloys, just have a search on google. I don't think they have to be powdercoated. I seem to remember seeing a picture of a collapsed GT4 wheel that had been powdercoated, not heard of any problems over here or with the regular rays alloys.

  6. I guess that's the difference between a GT-R and other more expensive supercars. Most other supercars are exciting to drive at any speed, not just on the track.

     

    His comments about not really being impressed by other high performance cars was quite interesting. I get the impression it's been designed as more as a physics experiment than a great overall car that excites you.

     

    Having said that, for what it is, I still think it's very impressive and hugely fast in the right environment.
