GT-R R35 Plenum Test Fitment on my VQ37HR

Too much talk about the strut bar.. Honestly get this thing into production and worry about the bar later. That bar plays no factor for me in deciding to buy

That bar plays no factor for me in deciding to buy this.

1. This thing is a metal intake and is sexy as phuck. +

2. This thing has proven gains. (More than expected IMO) +

3. This opens up the engine more and tests were only on a N/A app. Imagine TT/SC or Direct Port

I'm ready to pull the trigger. All the talk of strut bar issues or the need for one or fabrication of one can come later.

That should be the next venture after this goes into production and should not be the reason for delay of this.

Lets do this Chris! I'm ready

Good points. There needn't be a straight across bar when a pair of shorter triangulating bars (shock tower to firewall) braces could be fab'd later if at all. Just priced a GTR IM at the dealer here and they want $800.

Exactly..... Unles auto-xing or drifiting a hardcore bar IMO is not needed. As far as the actual GTR manifold it can be had for less online. The key to all this that Chris has tested and fabbed is the lower plenum.
