are you using solidworks or inventer for the 3D rendering on this?

ChrisUR 01-09-2012 09:32 AM

the program I'm using is called "CATIA" - check this video !

nice!

hah ironic, i get on here to take a break from my cadd job, get on here to talk about cadd

let me know how you like this !

GT-R plenum adapter, completely designed and made in Germany - prototype will be CNC machined on a 5-axis mill - custom -6AN 12mm fuel rails for stock or aftermarket injectors - easy upgrade to a dual feed return system if needed.

we are almost finished - just waiting for the fuel rails to come in so the production of the prototype can start. Looking forward to the dyno results !

Sweet! Awesome CAD work, you ever use Solidworks?

CSA0890 01-09-2012 03:58 PM

Wow very impressive.. Cant wait to see the final product! Irregardless of dyno numbers that is some great work!

Alchemy 01-09-2012 03:59 PM

Very excited to see what the results of this project are. Hopefully your hard work is rewarded with favorable dyno numbers.

ChrisUR 01-09-2012 04:31 PM

thank you - its really motivation to move on ! I have invested about $700 so far plus about 40 hours of work in total. I assume it will be another 30-50 hours before everything is completely ready and about additional $1500-2000+ just to have the prototype on my car fitted and dyno tested so your appreciation keeps me going.

we are using CATIA as this software is normally used to develop aircraft parts for planes like interior, turbines, gear, etc. - you cannot get much better even though solidworks or inventer are great tools too.

Just so you know we are not simply design something that will fit / allow you to mount the GT-R plenum but also have software to virtually calculate the flow and dyno the part before actually building it. From what we found so far there is a real chance that this modification will yield HP and torque even on a NA car. But only real world testing will show if the theoretical work will pay off so I keep silent until the prototype has been installed on my car - every result will be documented and posted regardless if the result is good or bad.

What I can say so far is that our design should be lightyears better than the cost effective solution Nissan has developed. They use square runners while we use round/elliptic runners perfectly matching both the head ports and the GT-R plenum ports. The flow velocity should be far better than with the stock part which hopefully will help to increase performance - believe me I'm more excited about what we can achive than anybody else !

next step is to actually build this thing - will keep you posted !
