Andy Isherwood Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Had to take the plenum off to change another injector so decided to remove 5 more bits from my plenum. I wanted it to look even cleaner than it was before. You have to look close to spot the changes but the overall look is now very uncomplicated and draws your attention to the purpose of that celebrated Nissan designed plenum (this had good press when it was launched). Just putting the whole lot back together now!!! Am I the only one who likes a bit of cleavage!!!! :ninja: Quote
Quavey Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 There should be some fixings for hose clips etc along each side? Or had you already removed those. Does look a work of art an amazing thing really. I wish mine was polished :D Quote
groover Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Nice one Andy, you got rid of the little tabs on each side, looks much sleeker, N/A balance bar. Now polish your springs and throttle bars lol, i just used the cutting mop on those with no sanding, came up a treat. Quote

You've spotted 2 out of 5!! trying to decide wether to chrome the whole set of metal parts - have a spare set to dismantle and send off but that might be next year now. got front bumper, rear lights, exhaust and water/boost gauge projects to finish first!! Looking forward to seeing yours mate. BTW it's a TT auto balance bar. Edited May 15, 2011 by Andy Isherwood Quote

Quavey Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Those have just gone plus 3 other bits!! Can you spot em? Balance bar nuts ;) Although you will need those! Quote
groover Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Oh yeah theres another raised fixing gone for the fuel hose clip on the second leg and the other fixing on the rear inner leg, i take it you are still going to use the throttle cable tree? Ive been painting some other bits on the engine, cam covers, rocker covers, coil pack brackets, balance bar and the throttle cover, will do a trial put together and take some pics. Quote
Andy Isherwood Posted May 15, 2011 Author Posted May 15, 2011 Balance bar nuts ;) Although you will need those! No lol! but while you're at it - can you spot what I've removed from the balance bar? Quote

Correct! the 5th one is the corresponding FPR fixing on the rear inner leg. Not sure what the Throttle cable tree is but this is what it looks like when all back together (before?! if that makes sense!) Edited May 15, 2011 by Andy Isherwood Quote
Quavey Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 No lol! but while you're at it - can you spot what I've removed from the balance bar? Fuel damper take of? Quote
