V4 Plenum


Ian

Recommended Posts

I recieved a 2nd hand V4 Plenum this morning. Ive been reading through the installation instruction & I dont seem to have the Plastic Cooling Block.

 

What does this look like? I may just be an idiot and have overlooked this.

 

Looking at the pictures in the manual it looks like it sits between the Plenum & Throttle Body, is this right?

 

Could this Cooling Block be used on a standard car or would it come off with the plenum?

 

If I dont have one could I run without it, if not where can I get one?

 

:thumbs:

is it the V4 or V+ ? they changed the design on the V+ with no more cooling block. I have had both and on the V4 the block goes under the plenum, held by 2 screws, near the throttle body, basically under the plenum. When I took mine off, one screw had gone missing, but the problem is that you can't tighten them too much otherwise they crack the plenum... best design is the latest V+, tbh. The block comes with the plenum

 

Also, with it being second hand, are you sure the cork seal is still ok, have you had it re-sealed by Kinetix?

Ive been told its the V4, Is there anyway I can confirm this?

 

Ive definatley not got an additional block with it though, Ive got all the screws & the only thing im not sure about is a sort of small metal tube with brass fittings either side?

 

Its the little piece that is ontop of the plenum in your for sale thread - http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... ght=plenum

 

Also what are those 4 metal bars for? Ive got them and have no idea what they are :blush:

 

Not been resealed by kinetix, does that need to be done?

take a pic of it and I'll tell you which 1 it is.

 

sounds like it's a V4 with the V+ fittings then?

 

:worthless: will be your best option

 

 

sounds like you hae a V+ to me

 

The metal bars are there as spacers for the strut bar, as the new V+ needs them to fit under it

emailed you the pic with the 2 circled areas that are well damaged

 

 

Its the Plenum that CharlieD was selling on here. Ive spoken to him and he claims that is was fine so I have asked him to come online and have a look at this thread

Ive spoken to the person who fitted it for Charlie so I know now where that brass piece sits :thumbs:

 

Just need some dry weather to fit it :teeth:

so you have a V4 with strut bar spacers and latest cooling solution, with no plastic block?

 

must have been half way through the V4 and V+ then :wacko:

 

Looks like it :)

 

Wold this cause any issues when fitting it? I assume not as Charlie fitted it ok.
