  1. Tricky, unfortunately you are wrong. The plenum on the left is a 296 (rev up) the one on the right is the 276 that has been modified with lowering the front runners. you have only referenced one standard plenum (the 296) with the shorter runners with the modified 276 (Mrev) i.e two completely different parts which doesnt show the modification. Here is the 276 vs the Mrev 313 engine is completely different Plastic for a start and square runners!
  2. As you guys keep linking my thread I thought I would comment Steve is correct that the runner lengths are very well matched to the stock cams so this is something I haven't modified. The challenge that has been advertised through multiple vendors and threads. The front two cylinders get starved of air. Plenum spacer will help to an extent but i thought I'd have a go. On a thread on my350z.com on a stock 276bhp car they put a modified plenum on and gained 5/6bhp. On the rev up cars the runners are alot shorter which looses alot of TQ but gains topend grunt. This is why just bolting on an older design 276 on a 296 without modification would significantly increase midrange TQ. the shaving of the front two cylinders only adds a little, but if it helps its better than not having it in my opinion. For reference this isn't a scientific experience I shaved from 15.6mm down to 12mm on the front two cylinders and removed the MR1 and MR2 logos out of the lower collectors. Not sure how much power it gained but I do know Im 274bhp @ the hubs with stock airbox, plenum spacer and exhaust with Uprev tune.
  3. Rubber washers would work aswell. Plus I think the 370z ones are slightly uprated aswell.
  4. Try the 200sx boys as they love these wheels!
  5. Is Ian still on holiday with his boyfriend?
  6. Just voted for your car mark but this comment had me in stitches!!! 50 words on .... Modifications: Most of the modifications were planned and brought before I even had the car. I have tried to find mods that will complement each other and keep the car looking like it was made to look like that from the factory. A full veilside kit, arguablely one of the most lairy kits, painted lumeous orange with lambo doors is not a 'factory look'. Just be proud you've made a modified show car but sorry to say if you wanted it to look factory like you have quite frankly failed
  7. How come you guys are paying so much! All mods declared - and I have a couple! 24 years old IT Manager 6 years protected no claims clean licence 3 drivers (including 22 year old Girlfriend) £600 will Admiral - Monthly payments!
  8. No spoiler FTW - have you had the wiper smoothed out aswell?
  9. Congrats, That was my favourite part of the remap how much more the car is responsive. If I dont drive the car for a couple of weeks it still makes me smile and surprises me
  10. Yeah I saw this last night (You were obviously being forced to watch hollyoaks aswell ) Obvious dig at the wii
  11. Didn't seen an annoucement so thought i'd do a welcome post for you LincolnBaggie. memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=1642 Congrats on your new appointment
  12. My setup is very similar to what you're after ... Scorpion Exhaust Envy Y pipe Ichiba Decats Stock airbox and Plenum Spacer and mine was up around the 270bhp mark with the Abbey Remap treatment. I know where Y pipes and Decats are being sold 2nd Hand if you require it. I think the best thing to do is think about what you want to achieve longer term.
  13. Gutted its up for sale Andy after all the time and effort put into this car. It looks stunning in the pics. Real shame that it looks its best in the forsale add. Might be worth noting that this car is yet to be mag feature or done a full show season like it is so ready to win some awards no doubt! Sorry to see it going Andy Dan
