GT-R R35 Plenum Test Fitment on my VQ37HR

BigT

You would spend all that money for looks? What if this robs HP? I'm still skeptical until proven otherwise.

People buy 5k + body kits... and 4k+ wheels... whats the difference. I'm just saying if I got all of my desired mods and my car looking the way I want, I'd do it in a heart beat.

edit: pending it doesn't loose horsepower. Time will tell.

No I would not but it doesn't hurt to show some encouragement and interest, especially since this still in development. Plus it looks killer, and I'm leaning towards it being horsepower positive rather than negative.

You can definitely make positive horsepower gains with a forced induction kit.

as some of you asked for a weight comparison I bolted together the stock upper and lower Z34 manifold vs. the now welded lower GT-R/Z34 Adapter and R35 upper plenum.

Both units are completely comparable as all other parts like TB, fuel rails, hoses, bolts, etc. will stay the same - we only weigh the 2 parts that differ !

The outcome suprised me more than I expected because as you can see in the pictures the scale shows exactly the same position for both - 6.5 kilogram / 14.3 pounds !

so at least we are not going heavier
