P15UL T Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 well today i finally got around to fit my kinetix plenum and summit strut bar. wasnt to difficult although i wouldnt reccomend the summit strut bar with the kinetix as they rest against each other and will cause a little damage to the plenum, i am going to give it a trial rum and see how it goes with engine movement. i also noticed that the sensor from the induction kit sit against the strut bar and would like to know if different induction kits have slightly different points for the sensor, a little more towards the bottom or the car would be ideal ! anyways here is a couple of pictures of my hard labour also it sound great with my nismo exhaust and kinetix high flow cats all stripped out all fitted back up !

Mathys Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Looks good! To finish it off, paint the orange ends of the strut bar as well in your green... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest prescience Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 That looks great Can you not put some spacers in to raise the strut bar away from the plenum; I forget if Kinetix pleunum's are still plastic these days but if they are, you're probably gonna hit vibration problems and maybe worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpe Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Looking good Did you paint the plenum yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15UL T Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 cheers guys, i got the painter to paint the plenum with the same paint as the car, i love the orange of the strut bar so that will be staying for the moment, you get spacers with the plenum for the original strut bar which raises it up 6mm but just isnt enough for the Summit bar, and yes green samco are on order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl114 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Very nice mate, youshould do the battery cover and get green hoses too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15UL T Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 i already had the battery covers and engine cover done in anthacite to match handles etc and the green hoses are on order from samco but takes 4-5 weeks as they are all made to order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would keep on at Samco though as they get very sloppy with their delivery times as they seem to like to send them out to retailers quickly but not individual orders from what i hear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
