GT-R R35 Plenum Test Fitment on my VQ37HR

ChrisUR

sorry for the ultra long delay - we were really busy during last year with customer projects so the parts for the GTR manifold laid around in the shelf and catched some dust but finally I brought my car inside the shop to continue/finalize the work !

please find below the pics of phase 1: "disassembly and test fitment" !

please be aware that this is only a very first teaser I show to the public because of so many people asked for progress during the last months I felt I owed you an update. The real work with customization, fitment adjustments etc. will follow during the next days and weeks and I keep you posted if you like. Next steps are welding the lower manifold adapter together, build a template to be able to reproduce, fabricate the new custom -6AN fuel rails, check and do all the piping/hose connections, check all clearances and finally dyno test, uprev tuning and street/track test driving.

but for now enjoy the pics of the disassembly and a first look of the GTR manifold sitting on the VQ37HR engine


VQ37HR engine with stock intake manifold still in place


removed strut bar


removed upper intake piping and plenum cover


removed upper plenum and throttle bodies


removed fuel rails


removed lower intake manifold


test fitment of the new GTR_370Z lower manifold adapter - not yet welded, just for clearance check


GTR R35 plenum loosely sitting on top of the manifold adapter - final adjustments will be made to clear oil filler cap


the hood closes flawlessly with the plenum in place - not checked strut bar clearance yet.
