    As some of you are aware I have been going through a fairly extensive rebuild of my Z over the past 18 months....every time its nearly finished i change my mind on something and it adds another 6 months to the build...the end is close.....I purchased a smoothed plenum from Chris (ezzupturbo) which has had all unnecessary brackets deteled, including coil pack brackets. I will be using SR20DET coilpacks with a custom wiring harness so that there will be no visible wires or coilpack brackets......i have had the plenum fully smoothed and finished in the same colour as my external paintwork.... Ive also got modified coilpack guides so that the sr20det coilpacks can be bolted in place.....both peices look fantastic......should be on the road Jan/Feb 2014...any marks on the plenum in the pics are either dirt or finger marks...paint is flawless.

    That plenum looks delicious.
    ...No Coilpack brackets ?
    You'll have to show us more on the set up and how its done

    With the Coilpack guides, where you drilled the holes for the wiring, are you going to use grommets ?

    they arent the best,
    but they do it enough justice, that i can see that if I personally owned said plenum, I wouldnt exactly not be surprised if you walked into my room at 3 in the morning to see me asleep and hugging said plenum.

    just sayin
